The Control units (the C15 is still being sold by M to my knowledge with an RRP of �4,750) become displayless end points under my understanding of Roon, and this would appear to be borne out from the responses I've received. It remains to be seen how M go forward with them in the Sooloos system, I do hope they have some sort of future as they have a presence and statement that an iPad can never have. They do need SSDs going forward, though. As an aside I was pleasantly surprised when my Control:One updated to 2.449.

I had no illusions that my legacy Sooloos system was cutting edge when I put it together, but I did so in the belief that it would continue to work in some form of Sooloos architecture until I decided not to use them, rather than M deciding they should no longer function on a unilateral basis.
You have a better future than I do. If Meridian disappeared off the planet today, you would still have a fully functional Sooloos system for years to come. I have a MC200. I wouldn't be able to upgrade the operating system on my iPad or computer. If the MC200 craps out, I'm stuck with a couple of useless endpoints. (C'mon Roon!) So brighten up. You are in good shape for whatever happens.
