More expensive = better?
No it is not certain that a more expensive integrated will sound better than a cheaper one, especially not jaw dropping better. If you can't listen to the more expensive integrated, preferably in your own system before buying, do a lot of reading... 
My experience with Roon Hardware
I have a Nucleus that I've fortunately never had problems with.  Your experience is indeed frustrating, but there have been other posts here like yours but dealing with other brands and types of gear or just communication.  In those other cases th...

That’s fair. You’ve probably given a lot of other people headaches. 😄  
Is improvisational jazz to impressionism art as smooth jazz is to realism art?
I’m with the OP on art. Give me beauty rather than different. Different isn’t always better. Smooth jazz, not so much. Here are some artists I’ve been listening to lately that mainly stay on the contemporary jazz side of the line separating it f...

I remember reading a quote from John Lennon saying something like he thought that Phil Spector had done a great job on Let It Be considering the load of crap that we gave him to work with.  
Beatles Get Back documentary
While it’s clear there was a lack of motivation, I found the collaborative process of their songwriting depicted in the first two segments absolutely fascinating, and it showed that, even though the band was on its last legs for numerous reasons,... 
Beatles Get Back documentary
Sound and picture are very high quality. Let me add to my first post after, "...the other three don't really want to be there," and aren't prepared to record a new album.  There's a lot of wasted time and groping around for a direction and new so... 
Beatles Get Back documentary
You’re right there in the studio with them. The only problem is they’re recording Let It Be not Revolver or another happier, more creative session. It looks to me like this is Paul’s idea and the other three don’t really want to be there. That sai...
