RE: Roon Review

I appreciate the effort in the overview.

But Roon is DOA. Sorry, that is my take. Forcing hardware manufacturers to conform to their standards is not going to fly.

The pricing is going to be a deal killer for most.

I think there is a lot of hype here and as computers fade from the scene so will Roon unless they make it easy for manufacturers to implement compatibility. If it can't be used with something like a Squeezebox, Sonos, or even an Auralic Aries...it's going to die.

Meridian and related technologies have a horrendous history in digital.

They invested in DVD-A technology which died a death. They invested in "apozidizing" filers when CD players took a dive, and now they have this over hyped MQA..soon to be buried too.
