Why is the presence of a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) antithetical to high-end audio?
I suppose PLC = Power-line communication.

But where is Roon RAAT support and digital room correction? I don't see them on the feature list. Very disappointing
Yeah, no, that's Programmable Logic Chip set for sure.
As for lack of mention of RAAT, I 100% agree. I can set up a Raspberyy Pi Roon Endpoint for <$100. No reason that shouldn't be there. It's just free Linux software.
As for DRC, or at least a convolution engine, I'm hoping that's what the new DSP is for. But, yes, no mention...
