Aurender is finally Roon Ready?!

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.

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. 

@audphile1 My new Métronome DSS is Roon ready, though the designer in France recommend to try Audirvana instead because of, according to him, better sound quality. So I will try that first, I think. What I like less about Audirvana and Roon, is that the software should be installed on a computer that needs be running while playing music, and not directly on an Android device which is aso used as the remote control.

@audphile1

I got the notification too and had extended talk with Aurender head guy at AXPONA. They don’t see Roon as a competition and quite excited to roll out Roon. What I am hoping for Conductor to be the final arbiter with Roon UI..kinda like HQPlayer integration with Roon. And that’s what appears to be the case in Step 3 of the Roon Integration, best of both worlds, isn’t it :-)

And BTW, I was also using Roon for casual listening and Conductor for serious listening 😊

@stievus does Metronome come with an app? If not, then you’re limited to Audirvana, Roon and may be Mconnect. Out of the 3, only the Mconnect doesn’t require a computer to run on…it’s UPnP and is just a control app. Unfortunately it never sounded very good to me in my system and I preferred Roon over it. Besides, the Mconnect is just a super basic UI. Not even close to Roon. 
As to Audirvana, I tried and didn’t like it but that was long ago.
