Listening via Roon/AIR, level -29.0dB
That might be an indication of digital 'overs' i.e. clipping on the input to your amplifier. For checking, enable Headroom Management for the Roon/AIR zone. Set Headroom Adjustment (dB) to 0 (zero) and enable Show Clipping Indicator. If Roon now indicates clipping simultaneous with the dB symbol in the amp you are seeing digital clipping.
Are you using any other DSP functions in Roon? EQ or Convolution? Upsampling maybe?
