@Saunter My experience is that using a 0.8m long curious USB cable sounded better rounded than 20m of generic Cat.5 cable. The NUC should really only be the server so maybe you could try to set the laptop up as an end point? At least it will give you some reference to what's wrong.
If it's not the source (from reading your post it is) you could play with speaker placement. Putting them a bit closer together will make them sound warmer. I'm still convinced good speaker placement in a good room beats any difference in source / cables etc.
If you have Lenehan speakers I assume you're in Australia? If you're close to Northern NSW I'm happy to swap listening seats with you. You never know what we both might learn.
Cheers,
Pim
