My iPad Mini3 is totally normal running Roon or any other app.

SQ....There is no way that Roon can do anything more or less than Sooloos when sending digital signals to same Meridian end-points.

These go over the same network and are using the same protocols, buffering, data rates etc. The code inside Roon shares much in common with the original Sooloos (as you might expect for various reasons).

I have extensively tested Roon and Sooloos together over the last 12+months into the same ID41, MS600 and MS200(s) and detected no change in SQ.

If you are hiding either your Roon core or watched folders behind a difficult or odd network arrangement (POIP, multiple bridges etc) then you could experience something, but, this is the network not the source or zones.

just my 2p
