I just did some careful listening comparing and Ethernet connected Raspberry Pi Roon Bridge connected via un optimised USB to D200 versus the same 24/96 track ( Paul Simon "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes" ) via AIR from iTunes and the AIR sounded SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER. Since in every other way Roon is the music serving solution I want to use, It seems I
must optimise the Raspberry <--> USB <---> D200 connection,
Or
Hope that Devialet add Roon Bridge R point functionality to D200
Or
Find another RAAT endpoint that outputs AES or a better input.
By the way AIR has always worked reasonably well for me ( one reboot needed per week of listening)
