Conclusion Mytek Brooklyn Bridge II – One of a kind

The new Mytek with Roon Core deserves an extra star for its successful combination of music server and streamer in a compact housing. At the same time, it makes no compromises in terms of sound or performance. And in view of the practical results, the asking price is also fully reasonable, even to be regarded as cheap. Similarly good-sounding and high-performance combinations of separate Roon Core and Streamer cost at least as much, if not more.
