I am posting this here because I could not find a Roon thread, and yet I imagine many of you who have servers use Roon.
Yesterday I received a notice from Roon about an update (Version 1.7 build 537), which I did not install even though I listened for 4 hours straight at serious volumes last night in shear audio bliss.
My VAC Statement Amp takes about 50-60 minutes to reach the beginning of its prime sweet spot. Today after having my amp on for only 15 minutes, good by most standards, but nothing close to its true potential, I installed the Roon update (Version 1.7 build 537) which disconnected me for about 15-20 seconds and then resumed the program material without missing a note.
Without a doubt the sonic improvement was not night and day, but clearly discernible even with the amp sub-optimal.
Also the operation of the interface seems slightly faster and better.
I have not found any downside.,
I also just want to say what many of you already know, my new digital arm to my bucket list system (MSB Reference DAC, MasterBuilt Ultra USB cable connected to a Taiko Audio SGM Extreme with everything sitting on Center Stage footers ( 1.5's under the Extreme)) has as Steve Williams has repeatedly stated, "it will change how you listen to music with more time spent on the digital side of my system than my analog side" which is no slouch.
Free, better and easy = NO BRAINER!!!!!
