Article: Roon Labs Releases Version 1.4 Update


Recommended Posts

Loving Roon 1.4 so far. Playback on iPhone is really slick, and sounds great!

 

I verified it does all the right things when I attach my DF Black to the iPhone:

  1. passes through up to 24/96 PCM content
  2. downsamples higher res PCM to 24/88.2 or 24/96 
  3. transcodes DSD to 24/88.2
  4. Passes through Tidal MQA content as 24/44.1 or 48, BUT
  5. Does NOT enable MQA decoding on the DF, despite Darko's claim here: http://www.digitalaudioreview.net/2017/12/v1-4-seasons-greetings-from-roon/  I suspect John wrote that before his first espresso of the day, because it could only work if Roon did the first unfold in SW, since the Dragonfly is an MQA renderer, not a decoder. And we know the Roon/MQA dance may never be consummated in our lifetimes. 9_9
