Roon supports Devialet AIR

[Bruno]

Hi guys,
Just a humble feedback :

Devialet Air integration in Roon is a big problem for me : it works perfectly (via Ethernet). Why does it raise a concern ? Because I am used to streaming from the Naim HDX server via toslink and it's always been fine. In order to try Roon I made a basic installation ie I put the Roon core on my macbook and stream from my hdx backup located on a NAS (Synology). Roon provides a much better "ecosystem" than Naim (metadata although lame for classical music, interactivity with biographies, discography, pictures, lyrics...). So at the end of the day, the HDX appears to be quite expensive for a ripper ! It's gonna be a challenge for the guys at Naim to enhance the environment and offer Roons level of interactivity. Does anyone know if the n-serve app will be improved in the future ?

The fact is that that both of them have to focus on the accuracy of the contents eg : if you check Belá Bartók biography on Roon you are going to be quite disappointed. Let's say it is the beginning of a fantastic piece of work for contributors and musicologists !

And the inevitable off-topic point (no offense intended) : with the latest devialet firmware, SAM is now on, 100%.
