Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Streaming Hardware with Roon Application How to incorporate Roon

or load Roon on a PC or Mac.

You still need to subscribe/purchase Roon though no matter what route you take.

You can use MC200 as audio endpoint but whilst it works OK as a NAS, Roon won't like multi disc sets served from Sooloos without some help. So don't expect to just point Roon at MC200 and it just index nicely. It's going to need some manual intervention and depending on how big your collection is, time. Or just do a native export from Sooloos to an external drive and use that as your media library. By which time MC200 will just be an audio endpoint.

TBH, both Roon and Sooloos have their good bits and bad bits. Sooloos is much better at surfing internet radio than Roon and less cluttered and more stable ux - you don't get features moving from release to release with Sooloos. But on the whole Roon is better, but how much better depends on how much you like/need its extra features. I fully appreciate why people still love Sooloos, it just works, but with Roon it will work for longer.
