Hi
it's quite obvious that RAAT would be the most elegant solution for Phantoms+Roon, but as RAAT is (still) not available for Phantoms I will again suggest the Mutec MC-3+USB. Inserted after your Cubox (using USB?) and re-clocked optical from Mutec to Phantom will certainly improve sound quality. I suspect using the Cubox alone is limiting the quality you get today so a cheaper solution (than Mutec) might be a Raspberry Pi 4 and RoPieee with one of the optical HATs, but I think the Mutec solution would sound best.
