Hi! Recently converted to Roon and decided to get Roon ready outdoor speakers, the P6 Air from Escape. However, Roon keeps downsampling as shown above. Any reason this is happening despite Roon recognizing the P6 Air and its spec’ed capabilities?
My guess is that their internal DSP is downsampling.
My KEFs do something similar: They can accept a 384 kHz signal but their internal DSP downsamples it to 96 kHz.
My KEFs show in Roon device setup as max sample rate 384 kHz but show 96 kHz in the signal path.
As the rate conversion is after RAAT this is Roon reporting what the internal mechanisms of the speaker are actually doing. You would not see this via any other route as Roon insists on transparency in its signal path. Likely the DSP engine built into the speakers only operates at 48khz. I would ask the manufacturer as to why it does it.
