Roon just announced a partnership with Audeze putting filters in the DSP engine for their headphones!! Really? I didn’t sign up for another Devialet…did you? I know Danny lives in Paris and is easily influenced but WTF? Next thing coming is Roon will be sold ala Sooloos/Meridian and we’ll all be sc…

Hi Danny HQPlayer: Yes I know it streams…I’d like to see it built into your DSP engine… Point 4. Not really Point 5. I know Sorry about the easily influenced comment

Danny: Although the financial difficulties of 2008 may have forced youu in a new direction, I think it was a blessing in disguise. Look at how many of the world’s largest companies today are not just software companies, but are software platforms. Compare that to 20 years ago, where hardware still…

i love this idea…bring it on for other major players (sennheiser, hifiman etc etc) do do their legwork and submit their info to Roon to implement…why not also for powered speaker systems like Dynaudio and Kef.

[image] j_c: why not also for powered speaker systems like Dynaudio and Kef Well, for speakers it’s a lot harder since the room affects the sound so much… with headphones, there is much less variance – and before anyone talks about the shape of the ear, I know it’s a problem – but that’s noth…

Speakers are hard to equalize because of how the room affects the sound. Ear shapes and in-ear geometry affect sound as measured at the ear drum, but the brain compensates for this, and most people (with normal hearing) perceive sound in very similar way. We have evolved this way and have depended …

I’d say the contention in the original post was absurd. Danny’s response, in the other hand, is well-reasoned and intelligent. End of story for me. The evolution of Roon is a blessing for all users–except, apparently, for the occasional whiner.

In the past I was using a beautiful app on the Iphone called Accudio™. It transforms (or at least tries) your headphone into another brand or model using a database of recorded frequency responses from 1000 models. Unfortunately the app disappeared and the company behind, Orfeo http://orfeosound.com…

@G997 Audeze is an American company and hand crafts their products in America… what does Paris have to do with Audeze? As a user of Audeze headphones I’m happy with the new DSP engine.

And further more - Audeze isn’t doing this because they’re great fellows. This is essentially, no matter its utility to Audeze owners, an advertisement for Audeze headphones. How many people, like myself, have looked at the Audeze settings and thought, “Maybe I should think of Audeze for my next …

[image] xxx: This is essentially, no matter its utility to Audeze owners, an advertisement for Audeze headphones. The Audeze thing is probably a great feature, and I’m glad it’s there. However, I have to admit I was rather taken aback to see advertising copy from another company inside the R…
