Roon Ready Network Devices
These devices enjoy our highest level of support. They support our flagship RAAT audio streaming technology natively, and we are personally involved in testing and certifying the implementations to ensure the best user experience possible when these devices are paired with Roon.

Roon Tested USB Devices
Roon speaks to any USB device that is recognized as a sound card by the underlying operating system.
Unless otherwise noted, all of the below devices support USB Audio 2.0.
One of the most difficult user-experience details for device manufacturers is volume control. We’ve noted our experience with tested devices below, to help you make an informed decision. If you are planning to use the device in fixed output mode, or with a software volume control, this column will be less interesting.
When it comes to DSD playback, not all formats work on all platforms. For the most part, devices that support DSD64 and DSD128 do so on all platforms. Some devices can only accomplish DSD256 playback using ASIO drivers on Windows.
As always, the primary source for information about devices and their capabilities should be the manufacturers themselves. This page is purely for the convenience of our users.

KEF Streaming
Roon supports network streaming to KEF LS-50 Wireless and KEF LSX speakers.
Due to the technical details of KEF streaming these speakers are not Roon Ready, so linking multiple pairs of KEF speakers is not possible and some RAAT-specific functionality (like convenience switching or advanced Signal Path functionality) is not possible.
