220pro: n00b question on the DAC portion and Roon

Is there a downconversion happening in the Devialet or does it just ignore higher res than DSD64 and do I need to downconvert further upstream?

I don't think that the Devialet can downscale the resolution. It automatically upscales all digital input to 192/24.

There's a setting in Roon which allows you to tell it to output DSD files as DSD or PCM. I output the 20 or so DSD albums I have as DSD and let my 140 do the conversion to PCM. There's also settings in Roon for maximum resolution output to an endpoint. You'll find the settings in the Audio Menu settings.
Roon Nucleus+, Devilalet Expert 140 Pro CI, Focal Sopra 2, PS Audio P12, Keces P8 LPS, Uptone Audio EtherREGEN with optical fibre link to my router, Shunyata Alpha NR and Sigma NR power cables, Shunyata Sigma ethernet cables, Shunyata Alpha V2 speaker cables, Grand Prix Audio Monaco rack, RealTRAPS acoustic treatment.
