Buying a lifetime Roon sub, back when Roon came out, made so much, moving from Foobar. I have never seriously looked at Aurender products as they were not Roon Ready.

I can understand, and appreciate, that some people prefer the SQ of the Conductor app over Roon. This has waxed and waned over the years. But the Roon interface continues to survive despite improving competition. Roon can be tough on the home network.

That being said, kudos to Aurender for putting in the work to get their products approved by Roon. I think it will certainly help their sales, as consumers have app choice. Then, individually, they can decide to pay for Roon if desired.

I do know that the next time I look to upgrade my music server / Transport, Aurender will be on the list of consideration. I would love to directly compare SQ , and functionality, of the 2 apps. I have always appreciated the Aurender aesthetics.

Anyone know if Aurender is working on the ISL interface thing for the MSB dacs?
