I also have Sonos Play 5s.
Suggest treating the Golds like a pair of good speakers rather than upmarket Sonos players. Avoid putting them on furniture, tuck them into corners etc. Place the Golds on speaker stands in an equilateral triangle with the main listening position.
I also found that UPnP to be better than optical, Airplay and Bluetooth. I am using MinimServer and BubbleUpnp App on Android. BubbleUpnp can directly access Tidal as well. Sorry, I am not an Apple person, so not sure how UPnP can be setup in a Mac Mini.
