RE: Roon ready
Posted by Isaak J. Garvey on June 10, 2017 at 20:33:21:
Thank you. I understood well what the term Roon Ready meant in regards to a stand alone network streaming/file payer device, like, as you note, Sonore, Byrston etc. I own a Sonore mRendu and I love it.
What I was confused about was the term Roon Ready applied to a DAC. Now of course there are many streaming components with built in DACs, unlike the Sonore.
If I understood Mr. Hansen correctly, a DAC can be configured as a Roon end point with the inclusion of an Ethernet port I was surprised to hear this as I thought certain amount of computing horse power was needed to run Roon and other processes. But it seems not!
