Qobuz stops playing via Roon.
Testrun you may be absolutely right.  Everything you mention could be the problem.  Think I'll start with the desktop as the core 1st and proceed from there.  Currently my core is the laptop which isn't hard wired.

It’s very frustrating because my download speeds are 40 mbps. Have plenty of bandwidth for playback. Think I’ll try and download Roon on my desktop which is hard wired.

Laptop isn't hardwired to the router. Maybe I should download the Roon software to the desktop which is but it's in a bedroom that's just off the listening area. Thanks in advance for your help :)

Also I should add that I rebooted laptop, router, LUMIN and iPad.  Started working better but then each song would stop about 75% into each track. Haven't screwed with it since.  I'm going to give it a little more time and if not better Roon is to...

Oh sorry.  HP laptop with a 1TB hard-drive. My iPad and phone work just fine as a remote.  I do have a Wi-Fi extender for the LUMIN so do you think I should try to connect to it instead of the router?

My Core is in the kitchen which joins the living room so about 15 feet away.   
Magico A5 or Sonus faber SERAFINO TRADITION or Harbeth 40.3 XD
@mglik I've heard the Cremonese and they are probably the best speaker I've heard. Preferred them over the Magico.  Wish I could afford them.

McIntosh and Sonus Faber go well together. I have the Olympica 3 with a MC452 and very satisfied.   
McIntosh Preamps
What is your budget? The MC452 is a great amp so congratulations if you decide to buy it.   
Tyler Acoustics Highland H3.5 or Focal Aria 936
Used to own the H3.5. In fact, I was his first customer to own them.  I can say without a doubt I would pick the 3.5 over the Focal. I've heard the 946 and while I think they are a nice speaker they are too cool for my taste. The Tyler is warmer a...

Ty Lashbrook - Tyler Acoustics Rogue Audio 
KT88 in Rogue ST-100 amplifier
What are you lacking with the KT120?  I much preferred Gold Lion KT88 when I had a Primaluna integrated over the KT120 but that's a different circuit. The KT120 were very powerful and dynamic but lacked in midrange richness. Very analytical and al... 
Audio envy - dang!
@tom2015I know this thread is old but did you ever let the AE power cable break in and what were your thoughts please?  
Audio Research from VSi75 to LS28SE/VT80SE or Ref 6SE/Ref75SE?
Personally I think it depends on if you just want to try something different and of course the Ref75SE/LS28 would be the way to go.  Separates almost always get you better sound quality if the budget allows.  
Why the hate for mcintosh amps?
I find it hilarious people say McIntosh is uber expensive and for Dr's and lawyers.  If they knew much about the industry and prices of other high-end components they would definitely change their mind and find it very affordable in comparison.  I...
