I second the comment "I would also look at a Small Green Computer"
I have their Sonictransporter and it is excellent. Great customer support, and the same or better functionality as the Nucleus (which is sexy looking, but overpriced imo).
I would get this bundle, which includes the Sonore Utrarendu (really a good upgrade): SGC bundle (click link) You can choose the size of the internal SSD drive you want (I have 2TB).
ROON is great—I can’t imagine life without it now.
Should I get a Roon Nucleus?
Hey folks,
I just discovered Roon after using Bluesound for years. I have the new Bluesound Node wired with a Cat7 Ethernet cable. I love the Roon interface. My node streams to both my Focal Arche and Rotel RA-1592. I just use Qobuz at this point (recently ditched Tidal). I have an iMac M1 as my Roon core currently. What do you think the Nucleus or the Nucleus+ would accomplish in my system? Thanks!
