Tidal & Roon


I'm a Tidal HiFi subscriber and would like to add Roon for playback. I currently run Tidal as an app on the Oppo player, and don't know if the Oppo can run as a Roon endpoint, much less run Roon Core.

I would expect to run Roon on a Windows 10 PC, connected to the Oppo by ethernet (PC & Oppo not in the same room or even close).

I'm guessing I'd have to run Tidal on the PC (not Oppo) as well. True?

Q: How would I make this work?

  • Oppo BDP-105d (latest firmware) / disc + Tidal HiFi
  • PS Audio Stellar Gain Cell DAC (in beta testing)
  • Bryston SP3
  • Bryston 6B SST2
  • Revel Ultima Studio, Voice, Embrace, Sub30
  • PS Audio P500 Power Plant
  • Audioquest cables (Jaguar, Pike's Peak, other)

You will get much better sound running Roon on your PC and using the PC Roon interface or tablet and connecting an ethernet connection to the PS Audio DAC.  The PS Audio DAC is much better than what you have in the Oppo.
