Aurender is finally Roon Ready?!

@audphile1 I don't think the words around your statement change anything.  I interpret this as your opinion is that Roon is inferior wrt sound quality.  Is that correct?

"For casual listening Roon should be awesome." LOL.

Not lol. I’ll second that. This is exactly what I have been doing with my streamer.

Use Roon for non-critical listening, using its world leading music discovery algorithm, then once a song requires that last (you pick the percentage increase in sq) flip over to a different app, in my case squeeze, to hear it in all its glory.

But importantly I think it is a given by now that Roon is not the same listening experience in all streamers. Saying Roon is the same Grimm or Taiko as it is on Aurender or Antipodes is apples to oranges (from what I have read).

@carlsbad2 the discussion we’re having here is specific to Aurender Roon integration. You must have missed this. 
I’ve used Roon for years with great results with several streamers and with others I found the native processing to sound better. So the Roon sound quality can and does vary depending on Roon integration implementation in certain streamers.

Don’t put words in my mouth.

HuZactly!  Roon most of the time, find a tune you really want max out on then swap over to, MPD on a Bryston for me, to get that last little bit.  

Its like having a N2O tank on a Hot Rod car.
