Hello all, As a new roon user I pondered on how to get a roon endpoint, so since I had an RPi 3B+ lying around, I ordered a HifiBerry Digi+ Pro HAT. Things went very badly. This implication being that the hardware running the Roon library (core) can be stored out of sight whilst a tablet instructs it to dispatch digital audio to an endpoint found on the PS Audio Network Bridge or AURALiC Aries. (I’m assuming this is true for everyone, right?) How are you running multiple Pi/RoPieee streamers? Do you need to go back into the core computer itself Hi, having returned to using Roon fairly recently - and having tried Chromecast for a couple of endpoints, I am considering swapping out to mini computers running Roon Bridge connected to DACs for my end points. Currently I have them all set only as Chromecast endpoints in Roon, with the Airplay for the same speaker disabled. CrystalGipsy (Resisting the flow!) November 13, 2023, 3:51pm 11. Hi, I have the option to select our Apple TV as an audio zone. I’d say dont use Airplay as it only supports 16/48 as a maximum, I think. Yet, the latter did group without issues until two weeks ago. Both systems are sourced lossless music from a ROON server. My music files are on an external USB HDD also connected to the Mac Mini. From what I can gather, the options seem to be: Great USB endpoint to Yggy: Roon --> Ethernet --> Sonore MicroRendu --> USB --> Yggy In the last few years, I’ve had A LOT of experience with various Roon endpoints. As a professional Artwork and now-playing information can be displayed on hardware devices. The I have recently replaced two Squeezebox Touch as Roon endpoints with the Orchard Audio PecanPi Streamers running Ropieee. And things get very bad trying to do multiroom with that kind of weak WiFi and internet. So, you can use an ATV 4K as the Roon end-point. Can you suggest reasonably priced simple endpoints that I can connect to my home Install Roon Bridge or RoonServer All that remains now is to login as root, download and run the Roon Bridge or Roon Server installation script. Airplay. I know the Grimm can serve this function, but we thought it best to not put this load on its internal computer. It’s an ideal solution to build a Roon Core and the hardware limitation to Intel NUC is a very reasonable one to keep development complexity at bay. the mini has an ethernet connection and connects to the dac via USB. Dear Team, After running Roon on my Synology NAS without a problem the last two weeks (I am new to Roon), I am putting together a home theatre and I would like it capable of playing multichannel audio from Roon.

Btw, the Roon Bridge cannot only be installed on the ARMv8 (64-bit) image, but also on the ARMv7 (32-bit) image. What would be advantages of using DietPi or Ropiee vs just using a Windows 10 mini PC? I know that in the past an ultimate solution would be the allowance of any Roon endpoints to be turned into Airplay receivers. The enables streaming of up to 5. Ethernet provides a good amount of isolation from the server and smaller systems like the Up Gateway system are electrically more quiet than full desktops system. The capability exists already in many endpoint solutions, like the iFi ZEN Stream and any Raspberry Pi running RoPieee or DietPi. Sounded wonderful. Entrypoints is a collection of Roon extensions that act as an input to your Roon system. No issues with any Tidal files.

Among other things i’d like to use it as a Roon Endpoint (and control of course). When I tried to set up a second NUC endpoint similarly for my headphone system. Roon streams to your audio devices, whether they’re on your network or connected via USB or HDMI. Many thanks! It advertises that can also be an endpoint and by that I take it to mean it is Roon Ready. Therefore I am planning to pick up a Mac Mini, connect it to a 10" screen (any bigger and it wouldn’t fit in the spare space in my setup) I have the following setup: 2 audio systems in separate rooms with a DAC in each connected by the ROONREADY devices from SONARE. What would be advantages of using DietPi or Ropiee vs just using a Windows 10 mini PC? I know that in the past This Roon/Evo failure is contemporary to a recent Roon software update and to the EVO b-007 FW update, which no doubt includes updates to the Roon Ready endpoint software that runs in EVO. I tried disabling the storage location, adding it separately as a new one and rescanning the library. They are abundant on eBay and going for cheap (Bulk clearance sales especially - make sure you get one with WIFI) (I picked up the 3040 for AUD$55 delivered) Seeing as Pi’s are rare at the moment and really expensive Bang for buck the ARM devices are great value while other Roon Ready solutions appear. All end points hard wired. 0 channel files. I have decided on a Marantz preamp (AV7706). Once I’d taken it upstairs to the second reference system I connected it to the LAB12 DAC via a USB cable, turned Roon on the Roon app via my iPad, found the Pi and I had music.

Is there any reason to choose one over the other for streaming from my Nucleus+ core? 1 Like. I believe I am halfway the project, if we are talking about the count and not cost—I already have the AudioQuest Dragonfly Red, Sonos Port, and Sonos One SL; Sonos Five is on I have Roon Core running on ROCK. After 17 years successfully zoning 4 Sonos endpoints together with 3 years grouping in roon, I understand that all endpoints in a group/zone must be the same OEM and model. Simply put, being “Roon Ready” might soon be a pre-qualification for any brand serious about creating a competitive streaming or multi-room audio product line. There you will find a number of music collectors, like yourself, who have first-hand experience with getting the most out of Roon when the library track count is best represented in terms of fractions of a million What’s the best End Point? I want something as simple, stable and easy to update, like the ROCK/Nucleus. Of late though Roon has an architecture or ecosystem that is slightly different than what you might be used to. The CD I have tested Roon on a QNAP NAS Server (HS-251+) and it worked fine. I like Roon and would like to have a dac which can serve as a Roon endpoint which I gather is better than Roon ready and Roon tested. Turns Hi all, I currently use RoPieeeXL running on a RPi4 into a Cambridge amplifier via SPDiF as my primary Roon endpoint and listening set up, which in turn is connected to Roon CORE running my Linux server and controlled vis the Roon app on my phone or MacBook. Volume controls on device front panels can be kept in sync with Roon. The two WXAD-10 devices can still be used as ROON-endpoints. We are using a Nucleus as our Roon Core and the Grimm MU1 as our streaming endpoint (the Grimm is capable of functioning as a Roon core as well, but is not currently configured that way). Both are loaded with the RooExtend extensions and both appear in the extensions screen and work perfectly, however both cannot be used as Roon Bridge endpoints at the same time, only one dac will show up in the audio config screen at a time. My core runs on a dedicated Dell Latitude i7 laptop with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. I don’t know much about gear, But, as I explained in another thread, the FLAC piece is irrelevant. I have it as a Roon endpoint and running Pi hole to clean up It is a long-term project (two years, maybe) to complete all specified endpoints. So I’m looking for a single speaker solution and preferably Thankfully Roon has Roon Bridge which can turn any compatible computer into a Roon endpoint and it's available for Linux on ARMv7 computers like the Raspberry Pi. I would like to play different streams of music in each audio system at the I find it incredibly odd that both Macs outside of Roon can play the files and ARC can play the files but the endpoints running Roon cannot. CUrrently I have an IMac, running iTunes, running into a Cambridge Audio DacMagic Plus into EMotiva powered Speakers. Roon does not stream FLAC or any other codecs to endpoints. On the latter, in theory (untested), it should consume a little less of the still (only) 512 MiB RAM of the Raspberry Pi Zero 2. I love the fact that Roon can connect to all of these devices but I hate the fact that I spend hours troubleshooting. I have not pursued the idea of an android phone based Roon endpoint further, as android phones (as opposed to iOS devices) are simply not suited to stream hires, except when using UAPP. (very long time ago now) Constantly getting lost connection to Roon endpoints and the network connection is hard wired with static IP assignments. The ROON-Core server is located on a QNAP NAS. The following are the options I am found. Roon is subscription-based music playback I have both Sooloos endpoints available in my main listening space but also have Sonos endpoints in kids rooms etc - Sooloos are visible in Roon and work great but do not have any visibility of Sonos. So, multichannel compatibility in the endpoint is your only concern here. Is there a Multichannel endpoint existent ? I mean a device that receive the Roon Multichannel stream via the network and have digital Multichannel output means two,three or four SPDIF or AES(XLR) connections? I am not looking for a two channel streamer that feed then a Processor that „generate“ Multichannel. It is the “core” of Roon’s endpoint-based architecture. I then run USB to my DAC using the low latency setting. It will show under the audio tab if your core is running. Which one will give best performance? I would like to use minimum components. Raspberry Pi has an Audio Product category all to itself. 2 running To set up your device up to work with Roon, please follow these steps: Step 1) First, you will need to make sure your Roon Core is set up and currently running over your Network.

Then, you can play music to a Roon end-point that is connected to your network with ethernet or WIFI. It has quite interesting outputs compared to other endpoints that only have USB output. Roon OS is a custom Linux based operating system, tailored for running Roon Server and providing a best-in-class, appliance-type user experience to host the Roon SqueezeBox support : as mentioned elsewhere, and by a growing number of people, I think it would be well worth your while to add the “Squeeze” products to the list of supported endpoints. Previous article iFi announces Micro iDSD Signature transportable DAC/head-amp; Next article Podcast #21: Work Experience (w/ IsoAcoustics Gaia II) We strongly recommend you engage with members of our user community when making any hardware purchase decisions for a very large library. The Rasptouch, although also being Pi based, is actually pretty bloody good and it has a number of those great characteristics and it gives me hope. I am I think the sound is better using the Innuos as Roon server and also as LMS endpoint. Would also be nice to be able to use sonos endpoints - is this likely to be feasible? If you are after a simple and cheap device to use as a Roon Bridge the this is a winner IMHO. I am wondering how much better I would Hey @brian For Roon endpoints connected to DACs via USB and ethernet, my understanding is that Roon Core does know what DAC is connected. After the DSP Engine operations have finished, Roon will then re-insert the MQA Rendering information before passing the stream to the device. I am trying for last 2 days how to make Roon see my iPhone as an endpoint. 0 (not Roon 2. This has happened before over a year ago and the suggested solution was to rename the old RAATServer folder allowing the Core to make a new one. thisisvv (VV) May 31, 2020, 12:09am 1. The DAC hat in these is exceptional and runs circles around the SB Touches. Also it’s not clear whether an Ethernet to AES endpoint is the preferred option or if the use of a USB to AES converter (digital to digital converter) would accomplish the same quality sonically. Note, in order to use the Nucleus and its software you must have a Roon subscription which is The problem is the Roon Ready endpoints keep losing connection to the server. The question to be discussed here is why a mobile device has such a limitation knowing that any native app like Tidal, Qobuz, or any player has no such limitation and takes full advantage of the device’s capabilities. I have an 10 TB hard drove that is connected to my iMac that hisses my Roon core. Hello, I’m unable to get two Raspberry Pi 4s as audio endpoints at the same time. The external HDD should stay connected to the Roon skipping a local file because it just skipped a streamed file is very strange.
