Denon DNP-2000NE - Roon ready?

I noticed in one of the initial reviews that the new Denon DNP-2000NE is Roon Ready. As a Roon fan with a bunch of Denon gear, my hope is that this may provide a pathway to go beyond Apple Airplay and get the best possible audio quality and all that Roon offers.

Anyone else know any more about this?

It is Roon Tested, not Roon Ready. Works by using Airplay, not RAAT.

Denon usually uses HEOS for streaming, with Roon conspicuously absent. I’ve not heard anything different with this product. The Denon site doesn’t mention Roon.

I was afraid of this when I read the review. Roon tested and Roon ready seem to get confused by reviewers. Too bad, but than you for clarifying this before I invested.

The N. American spec sheet has “Roon Certificaton: Yes”…That only mean Roon Tested?
It is funny that Certification is spelled wrong in the pdf.

I just purchased one of these. Definitely not “roon ready” but works very well with RHEOS and sounds great in my set up.
