Bluesound Pulse 2 vs. Elac Discovery Z3

The important integration for me is simply Roon- RAAT endpoint functionality, including MQA, sync, etc. Full sync across all my various Roon endpoints is critical. (Otherwise I might consider isolated Sonos devices instead.)

I’ve caught up on this thread:

It doesn’t seem like Bluesound is really there yet.

For the Elac, is the Roon integration fully functional? Do I need the Elac app to work well? David’s listening review in the OP, above, suggests that the less-expensive Elac sounds very competive, and superior in the high-end.

So I’m still a bit confused.

After looking at a number of potential solutions, I’m starting to wonder if the ‘all in one’ wireless Roon speaker/endpoint solutions are not quite there yet.
