Basically you are right.
But it sound amazing still. The price of Marriage :slight_smile:

Very simple set-up (electronics squeezed into the TV unit for the moment!)…

Roon on MacBook Air
Auralic Aries Mini as RAAT
Chord Mojo as DAC (from my headphones rig as it sounds so damn good!)
Heed Obelisk integrated amp
Own built MTL speakers with Mark Audio Pluvia full range drivers

My humble mid-fi set up that (mostly) meets WAF. My wife is fine with noise and booms when watching movies, but she is sensitive to music playing. Before we we’re married, I always had music playing - either in the background or as a focused activity.

Pioneer Elite AVR VSX-LX301
Sony BDP-S7200
Denon DP-300F with stock cart (must upgrade)
Fluance 5.1 speakers (SX6, center and SATs)
PSB Subsonic 8
Not seen:
Harmony Hub
RPi 3 + Digi+ HAT + Roopiee via Toslink to AVR
Grado SR80e
Monoprice Monolith 1060 v2
Dell Precision Workstation (7th gen I7) + 9TB storage running Roon Core
Samsung tablet and LG G7, V30, etc., as Roon remotes.

Cats currently out of view.

I usually control w/iPad but since it’s a Roon pic I turned on the 65" screen. The white on screen turned blue in photo and with task bar the heads are clearly cut off in pic.

The server is in the closet thru the door.

I listen to multi-channel and watch movies w/Emby so 7.2 setup. Emotiva electronics w/Ninja Ref 3 speakers (Dannie Ritchie x-overs).

I use Focal XS desktop speakers in office.

Led Zeppelin alongside Diana Krall. Myself I would krall through a mile of broken glass to go back in time and see Led Zeppelin Live! But I would rather fall into a tub of molten led than endure even a half hour of Diana Krall. :grinning:
