Streamer/Server to replace Innuos Zenith

Innuos are quite clear that they use lower powered chips to achieve lesser noise interference and better sound quality. Obviously that will run counter Roon‘s processor-heavy design including DSP. The fact of the matter though is that Innuos Squeezebox implementation using IPeng or InnuOS 2.0 sounds better than Roon driven by their own Nucleus+  So those married to Roon have to account for the above.

I used to agree wholeheartedly with the above post regarding Sense 2.0 vs Roon. This is no longer true with Roon’s latest update.

@grannyring So have you found that Roon 1.8 with the September update is now on par with Roon Sense?

@grannyring Sorry I meant Innuos Sense!

I really do.  All is good.   The Roon interface is 100x better also. We already knew that. 
You can compare yourself going back and forth.  Use Roon in the Squeezelite experimental mode.
