I just bought an Aurender N200. It is an awesome machine. Lack of Roon never even factored into my decision. Sound quality is sublime, I don't think I want a 3rd party software app messing with that.... plus I have enough subscriptions, thank you
Rather than subscribing to Roon I spent that money to have both Qoboz and Tidal. There is enough unique content on each platform t o warrant that for me. I used Roon when I demoed my DAC. Just wasn't for me
