Agree the GN is so flexible that if and when you change cartridges it will be able to match just about anything out there. And yes the SQ is great not as fine as a NVO I use as well but the NVO is much more $$$$

Bin dug noisy records. Does it diminish your enjoyment?
Try cleaning them 1st makes a BIG difference. I used a Kirmuss ultrasonic which worked well but a real PITA to use so now use a Keith Monks Prodigy and very happy. 
Uber expensive repair at United Radio

Isonic vs Kirmuss vinyl record cleaner
Kirmuss is a great machine bought one but after less than a month sold it. Was such a PITA to use, if you wanted to just clean 2 or 3 albums then in another 3 days clean more you have to empty the tank and start again refilling the tank and begin ... 
Roon Nucleus quality as a network streamer
I've considered the same. Currently just using a very old MacBook Pro for Roon. Would the Roon Nucleus be that much better or how about the Roon vs Small Green Computer?
