New to hifi... question about Lumin T2 and Roon


Hi, guys (and gals). I’m brand new to hifi. Just recently purchased a Lumin T2, Luxman 590axii, and Franco Serblin Essence speakers. I’m at the point in my life where I can finally afford to have a little bit of hifi fun. Always wanted to get into this area, just never had the space. Anyway, I’m hoping I made a good move with the equipment I put together. Everything is still brand new and I’m in the process of running my amp and streamer, 24/7.

Anyway, I’ve done a bunch of searching but haven’t found anything truly on point (although I’m sure I’ve just missed it). My question is how do I hook up my T2 to a Roon Nucleus (just ordered it)? Do I hook both devices up to my router or do I just hook up the Roon Nucleus and then USB connect to the T2?

Also, does it take a while to burn in the FS Essence speakers? They seem a bit "tight" right now and bass seems to be lacking. Since everything is brand new, I have no idea what might be causing this issue, other than all components need time to burn in and settle in.

Thoughts?

Thanks.

Bill

FYI, I'm actually MCDG.  Apparently, I had signed up previously as WTB (my initials).  There won't be anymore posts as MCDG as the WTB account was created first.  Not sure anyone cares, but since I'm brand new to the community, I thought I'd make that clarification. 


Thanks for all the great advice.  Looking forward to learning more about this cool (and expensive) hobby.
