Roon can sound great it requires superior programming skills and hardware designed to run roon optimally,
our 432evo servers run Roon in an entirely different fashion by maximizing how roon is run by the CPU:.
we run Roon on one of the CPUs cores.
we run background processes on another core,
we then run music caching on another core.
all non essential processes are turned off on the motherboard and we electrically shield the cpu with a custom designed shield, add a custom Sata cable, a shock mounted suspension for ths Ssd,and a separate electrically isolated usb card and clock.and we use two Sbooster external power supplies one to drive the CPU and one to power the usb and clock cards.
And because we have separate boards and power supplies we also have zero obsolescence as better parts become available the servers can be upgraded easily

Us importers 432evo music servers

the result is a server which sounds more liken analog source when combined with a great Dac.
yes Roon can sound amazing whem implimented correctly
