Roon basically doesn't deform every sound source, only decodes it to PCM and sends it as is.
In other words, sound sources with a bit depth of 24 bits are transmitted as they are in 24 bits.
However, various settings can be made depending on the environment.
1.When using filter settings on Roon Core
-When the filter function is used, Roon Core converts PCM data and sends it.
In most cases, it is transmitted after the original sound-> 64bit FLOAT-> Filter-> 24bit LE.
2. If your Roon Ready Device does not support 24bit
-Roon Core transmits 24bit original sound as it is, and converts it to a format (usually 16bit) supported by the Roon Ready Device.
3. If the Roon Ready Device does not support the sampling rate of the sound source
-In this case, resampling is sent directly from Roon.
The ROSE device supports 16/24/32 bit and 44.1 ~ 376Khz so you can listen to all the sound sources without loss (no loss).
However, if you connect the USB external home to Rose and use it, conversion may occur depending on the performance of the external home.
If you want to check whether the 24bit sound source currently being played by ROON is transmitted as it is, you can check the Signal Path in the Roon Client for sure.
When playing with ROON, is the 24-bit sound source transmitted as it is or is it converted and transmitted?
