Please help with Roon server/core issue
Yes +1 Erik. Run speed test many times in same location. that being said I had issues with an Aries G2 dropping roon and then being a b**** to restart.   Many Roon support queries always ended in ‘a network issue’. I replaced the Aries with a Gri... 
quest for speaker upgrade
The Gershmann’s were one of favorite speakers at CAF last fall. I also think used Revel Salon 2’s (which I own) are a steal for 12k. they look very different, if that matters.  
Bluesound Node help
I think the ARC from your tv should provide the best sound input to your node, but toslink optical should also work. I also struggled with the Bluesound  app. I now listen to tv etc with toslink direct to my DAC and 2 channel rig.  It sounds bet...

Considering a Backert Rhythm 1.4, talk me out of it

Integrated amp: Component weight
I can understand that...I feel that way (biased) about some amazing gear from other countries.  But I say nothing spotty here.  Bill Parish at GTT has fantastic service and most of all knowledge.  Just talk to him.  I think the Makua w Tambaqui is...

I guess your pics got removed.  I am building a few!  Thanks!    
Ethernet cables
Yes of course they matter and so many here with good systems can hear that.  Easy to ignore those that can not hear it.  But what really matters is the LAST ethernet cable going into your streamer.  I use good but reasonably priced Link-Up 22 g ca...

Hi @cundare2 !  Have you considered the Mola Mola Kula?  I have the Makua with onboard Tambaqui and it is excellent.  While I  did sell my matching Kaluga amps in favor of Audionet Max amps, the newer class D in the Kula really do sound nice for a...
