Thanks.

Can I leave the slave (right) speaker with SPDIF and BNC comms, or must I change it to RJ45 input and buy another Ethernet cable?

I prefer the sound of my Allo transport, which happens to output simultaneously via BNC and RCA, to be directly connected to both the the speakers and to the 568.2mm. This way I enjoy Roon’s convolution engine with HAF room correction filters, and deliver MQA to the 5200SE.

Other sources, including discs, TV and Amazon HD, input into 568 which would now connect to the SpeakerLink input instead of me having to switch SPDIF cables when I’m not using Roon. I did not have to go through that with my old Smileys because they had two RCA inputs.

Of course l’d rather run everything through HAF (and Roon), but I haven’t figured out how to do that yet without converting other digital sources to FLAC radio stations with only “CD quality”.
