Describe the issue

The Classé Delta Pre MKII was released for more than a year and Sound United clearly stated the unit as Roon Ready. Two support requests were sent and the answer was that the unit is still in certification process. In the meantime I read a statement that no older Marantz and Denon unit will become Roon Ready. But what about the Delta Pre MKII? A simple „it is in the pipeline as promised by dealer and sales“ or „no“ would be fine for me because I have to evaluate under this circumstances a return process because of that possibly wrong promises.

Describe your network setup

LAN

I’m sorry to disappoint you, but Classé aren’t listed as a Roon Ready Partner, and the only brands from Sound United that are certified are Denon and Marantz.

Moreover, brands should not announce certification until it is achieved, and published here:

Roon does not comment on the status elsewhere, so you should direct your questions to Classé. Specifically, if they “clearly stated the unit as Roon Ready”, and this is documented, you should have some recourse as this is indeed misselling.

Hello @Enno14,

Thanks for reaching out.

The device you mentioned is in certification progress, but we do not have any additional details to share at this time.

You can keep an eye on the progress on the website @mjw shared here.

Thanks.

Thank You for that important statement, you made my day and I am looking foward.
