Roon supports Devialet AIR
@Axel

Dev Pro CI is getting worse in my case. It not only loses contact when switching between music with different sample rates, but also after 10, 15 minutes or after an arbitrary time. Only cycling the input ports re-establishes the connection. Very unpleasant.

I am using Audirvana for the moment and I have no problems. Very simple design but it works and the SQ is good. I can use my PRO with CI and my Phantoms very easy with UPnP. With Audirvana I can use Qobuz Sublime. My ROON license is ending on February. For the moment I would go with Audirvana for the future.

I would like to ask that is anyone able to get stable and completely trouble-free high res (like 24/192 kHz) streaming from Roon/AIR?

I'm unfortunately experiencing some issues like crackling noise when streaming high res from Roon/AIR (Ethernet). It doesn't seem to matter whether I'm listening to local 24/192 kHz files or upsampling 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz, there always comes some crackles every now and then. Any ideas how to make it work?

24/192 I sometimes get crackles in Ethernet. Not often, it only happens when there is some load on the network elsewhere (TV, data transfers...).
Never got any issue in 24/96 so I stick to 24/96. As far as I remember the internal working frequency of the Devialet is not more than 96kHz anyway.

Hy petrik,

I have no problems with 192/24 and even no problems with DSD64 from Audio-PC with Roon (local stored on SSD or NAS) over ethernet (PC and D400 on a Netgear-Switch GS108) - works completely trouble-free.

I have had zero issues with RoonAir over Wifi for months until latest Roon’s build 333/334. Now I have to use Ethernet to avoid crackles on DSD64/PCM176.4k/PCM192k.

I've used Roon/AIR a bit the last few months. Only wired, no problems all the way to 192kHz. I have no DSD material so I haven't tried that. Remember that AIR is still UDP so a lost packet is most likely audible. When RAAT is in place in Experts we'll have TCP transfer of data where re-transmission of packets is part of the protocol. No more dropouts (hopefully)

Thank you guys. Are you all using default settings for the Devialet on Roon or have you changed for example the buffer size?

I get perfectly working high res streaming on my other Roon zones over Wifi, even when upsampling to 768 kHz. No problems at all on those zones.

Problems typically start when streaming anything over 16/44.1 to my Devialet when using Ethernet. I can see some amount of "NAK" messages on the Roon Server log file when these crackles happen. Here is an example from yesterday when I got some crackles. Not sure if this is normal.

Are you sure of this? I thought it was 192kHz

768 kHz via wifi?  I my understanding is the Devialet is limited to input at a maximum rate of 192kHz.  If you check the input rate on the Devialet's display, is it showing 192kHz, or something else?  You might have discovered something here! Shy
