ASUS ROG - RealTek HD Audio

Thanks for touching base with me @QB_White, glad to hear you are enjoying the Dragonfly Black, I have the RED and I love it.

In regard to your question about the ECHO, here is a statement from our COO Danny about the device (in regard to Roon):

This project is in the back burner… It never worked well… Alexa seems to fail badly when music is playing, and the fact that Roon sounds like Room makes it even worse.

We could release it, but it’d be a very poor product. Additionally, no one on our team would want to live with it, so it would slowly wither and just be a sore spot for Roon members who would expect a high quality product.

The idea is great, but the implementation isn’t there… :frowning:
We will revisit with future software updates

However, one of our moderators has shared how he uses Roon + Alexa here:

Since it is its own bluetooth speaker I can even stream Roon to it
from my tablet or phone. A perfect in kitchen product. And really
unexpected since, I originally acquired it with the use case of
replacing my pen and paper grocery list with a scenario of just being
able to say “Add broccoli to my shopping list” and have it added to the
list on my phone automatically.
