You don't have to set a distance if you don't want to. You can simply specify a + or - dB adjustment for each channel in that Speaker Setup filter. It works extremely well. I use it to adjust for a slight deficit in my left ear so add a dB to the left speaker. Roon is fantastic!
Digital Speaker Balance Control with ROON
This is just an FYI for you ROON fanatics.
I sit slightly to the left of the center spot in my office system. I normally use the BALANCE control of my Benchmark HPA4 preamp to adjust for this seating position.
However, today I moved the HPA4 to my Livingroom and put in the Holo Serene in the office. The Serene does not have any features that you would like in a preamp, it just sounds rather good. So, no BALANCE control. I was willing to live with that since I want the HPA4 in the Livingroom.
I was wondering if ROON had anything for BALANCE since I was familiar with CONVOLUTION filters running on ROON. I had not seen the SPEAKER SETUP filter before (or maybe the current feature set was updated). There was a provision to set the distance from the 2 speakers to the seating position. I entered the magic numbers and had perfect balance. This was even better than the analog balance from the HPA4 preamp. It sounds great and bit perfect.
Love ROON. Killer features and I have NO issues with the sound.
