Roon supports Devialet AIR

[ogs]

I am struggling to understand what 'Roon AIR' might offer that traditional Devialet AIR does not.  Consider that if you run a PC 'bit perfect using WASAPI' (or the Mac equivalent), this is effectively bypassing any processing in the PC, so what difference does it make?

Maybe Linux compatibility?  Maybe the new streamer board runs Linux and the projects are linked?  (although I'm guessing this is a Roon initiative only)

Traditional Devialet AIR is Win/MAC only. Many do not use either and personally I'd never play music from a laptop on a regular basis.  It remains to find out if SQ is on par with microRendu/Sms200 and the Mutec. And now we have 'ultra' versions of both streamers coming too.
One thing is certain; Roon direct to Devialet will be much cheaper than  solutions with streamers and re-clockers. And much less clutter if that matters.
