I put together a NUC that is equivalent to the Roon Nucleus +, added a 2 TB internal SSD, and bought a lifetime subscription to Roon, all for around $1600. That's a deal in the hi-fi world. I highly recommend it! Roon is fantastic. I ripped around 2k cds, put the CDs in my basement freeing up a ton of space, and now listen to music in 4 different systems around my house, two with Roon ready components and two with Rpi 4 + Ropieee (which works fantastic).
Best Server To Run Roon Core
Hi Folks,
I don’t currently run ROON, but would like to begin correctly in order to give it a chance - and I understand that server (hardware) on which Roon core is installed is important for SQ (due to noise reduction and other factors).
What are the best hardware for SQ and usability where ROON core should be installed and why (be it audiophile dedicated servers or modified PCs)? Please comment on the rest of your setup for context if you could.
Thank you in advance.
