Roon 1.6 ... with Qobuz

[Sailor4W]

The integration of Qobuz with Roon has exceeded my expectations.  You get the full deal, including access to the Qobuz PDFs through Roon.  Roon Radio which also accesses the Qobuz catalogue has already uncovered some wonderful performances unknown to me before (I was “semi-listening” when I had to sit up and take notice of Byron Janis playing Prokofiev PC no 3). My “pop” friends were very impressed with my newly acquired catalogue of 1960s music.  I am tempted to upgrade to the Qobuz Sublime + option when my subscription comes up for renewal later this year.

Qobuz integration is the best thing that happened to Roon! It made my Aurender N100H completely obsolete, which I sold in the meantime.

I have Qobuz sublime for the moment, but I might switch to the less expensive Qobuz HiFi that also allows HiRes streaming up to 192/24. As Qobuz is so nicely integrated into Roon, I am not sure if I'll ever download music from Qobuz anymore, so the download discount you get with Sublime might become needless for me. I have to think about it next time when my abs is up for renewal.
