Yes dB poweramp secure. Read speed set at 40x, compression set to default, FLAC 44.1/16. Getting through roughly 10/hr, album art and track names take about 20secs to retrieve. I don’t bother re-ripping inaccurate tracks, the ones I’ve tested play back fine, although I’m sure I’ll find some blips and thumps.
The Roon metadata would be nice, but Audirvana is a stop-gap while Im playing direct from the laptop. I’ll be rendering through Volumio once I bring my streamer in which is as basic an interface as they come. Then when I set up some sort of server I’ll probably buy Roon.

Seems like you've got a good idea of the direction you're going in. Roon radio would be perfect for a public space, especially if you limit it to your own library.
Roon radio with Tidal and Qobuz to choose from really needs a good starting point in terms of genre.

Just re-reading what you've written here, we must be using different versions of secure. On my dbpoweramp it goes to a very very slow re-ripping stage if after 2 passes it doesn't have the correct checksum. Following that if it fails it doesn't write the file and delivers a warning. I can go back and burst rip that file.
This box set comes from the 90's and got played in car stereos, I'll probably have to get out the plastic polish for them.
Last summer I managed 700 in a week using XLD. That was pretty much every waking hour though.

No idea how you are managing 120 a day. Are you ripping securely with dbpoweramp. I'm trying to rip a Mozart box set with 25 discs in and I've had 3 that won't rip securely which slows the process massively.
I guess you don't miss the extra metadata stuff that Roon does. I used to run Amarra as an iTunes plugin before Roon came along. I liked the difference it made. Sometimes it's enough that the software communicates more directly with the sound card and misses out the os mixer.
