Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital?


I have Comcast/Xfinity coaxial cable to their modem/router in an Apple equipped office approximately twenty feet from a remote xFi Pod with 2 ethernet outputs next to my rack. If this source is adequate what would you suggest next with a $10K budget?  

128x128m-db

My journey has lead me to this digital pathway:

1) Roon

2) fiber Ethernet conversion 

3) Shunyata Ethernet 

4) Weiss 501 DAC

Getting rid of Aurender.

A pair of Kef LS50 speakers is an entire system, you can run it in either a hardwired setup, wireless or both. Get a 60 day audition from Crutchfield:

 

Another great deal from JBL for around $2K, I don’t think you could get the same SQ for $2K going the traditional route. Again the wireless connection is optional, you can also use XLR connections. Can you get an equivalent SQ going passive, absolutely. For $2K? No way Jose:

 

My main system uses the Innuos Zen Mk3, and Brinkmann Nyquist 2.

I use Roon to stream Qobuz.

My first thoughts were- 'This reminds me of Vinyl'.

I've done a number of brick and mortar auditions of mid and higher priced combinations. I haven't been encouragingly impressed by the incremental value. I'm hearing differences, just not as much as I was expecting from what I've been reading in general. 

I'm reminded of when class D amplifier users were claiming their choice as 'tube like.'  I simply need to come to terms with myself or until the Logitech Touch lets go.   

The input here has been enlightening and very helpful. Thank you all.
