Firstly, it is the most convenient way for me to stream Qobuz - the SQ is not quite as good as Roon Air - but OK. My previous method was a bit cumbersome - and I was not streaming Qobuz very often because of this. The second is that it is an easy way to connect streaming video services (such as Netflix etc - and, for the classical music lover, Met Opera etc) to my Devialet using Apple TV. Again, I had other ways of doing this - but using AirPlay is so much more convenient.
No streaming issues with either aes spdif, or Roon AIR. Mostly redbook so far.
No issues with the iOS remote either. Connects as per normal, volume seems to update fine. I like the fact I can control the volume from Roon even when I’m playing through the digiOne - seems just having the Air device setup keeps the volume controls alive so I can popup the Roon volume on that Zone and adjust the active zone volume. Not sure if that’s by design or not but I like it. Have set my volume limits to be more useful across the slider range.
Still haven’t tried any of the new input like airplay - which was a key selling point for me just for general convenience - but have little time so trying to actually listen.
AirPlay certainly was not a selling point when I purchased my Devialet, but it certainly has enhanced my Devialet experience
