Melco arrives tonight !

[octaviars]

Me too.  

Aurender are definitely planning on doing it.  

Hopefully there will be a flood of interesting new hardware too.

And since you don't really need local storage on the device - as this will essentially become like a NAS with what Roon are proposing - something like a 'mini Melco' without the storage would be great.  This is of course all assuming that RAAT works when its released and is actually good! Bearing in mind their background, this seems very likely.….

I was hoping Devialet might add the Roon protocol direct, finally allowing users to go back to a 'one box' system that they bought into in the first place (albeit you'd still need a roon server behind the scenes) but sadly that isn't going to happen.

I also have a NAS today so I dont really need the internal storage of the Melco, maybe it is better soundwise I dont know as the Melco is only built for audio purpose and a NAS is not built only for audio.
If Roon is the next big thing for Melco I hope it`s something like ELAC is doing with the upcoming Discovery streamer were Roon is built in and you dont need a computer to run the server.
