Yes, but just being very patient. 
I appreciate the information shared on this thread. I have found the combination of Roon and Tidal have made me want to listen to music again. As for the Kef Ls50W’s, I find them an unbelievable bargain and truly fantastic above 50 cycles.
I am a Mac guy as well. Did KEF state what the next firmware update will entail?
To be honest I did not ask them that question. They are usually non-commital so I didn’t bother. Glad you got it all tweaked up and working. Good on you.
Thanks John, this streaming audio is new to me as I have been a old school audio guy for many years now. I am really amazed at how good it can sound.
Bump. No updates?
Nope. I would not hold my breath.
Just add a Micrcrendu like we have John. I switched the power supply to a UpTone LPS-1 and the USB to Cabledyne Premier Silver. Much smoother and improved bass control.
Yeah but I think what everyone really wants is native support for Roon through the ethernet port.

Damning with faint praise…
(From a fellow M owner.)
I thought this hint hint wink wink means it’s officially in progress with Roon testing it? So just requires patience for Roon and KEF to test it properly, no?

Hi Anders
In today’s world I believe Meridians config app, rs232/Usb mix of connectivity and need for null modem cables and adapters needs to be brought up to date and simplified.
I have moved away from Meridian though so all this is no longer relevant for me.

@hk6230 pinged me about this.
All I can say is @danny thanks for working on it! We are definitely thinking what you are thinking with Wink-hint, nice way to tell us. All the best to make them Roon ready / Friendly / some how identify them through ETH cable or what every works. For now i m happy with USB.
I like ETH cable way of ID these speakers than wifi. LS50 app is very very stupid and useless app. I discarded using it like trash the 2nd day of using it.

Heh…just saw this, Google it. All is possible and not hard to find.
Nope, sorry, that is a copout answer.
Identify MacOS programs that decode HDCD, detect pre-emphasis flags in subcode, and verify/repair previous CD rips via the CUETools database.

I’m not really clear on what you are saying probably because I just started using Roon now that they fixed the Apple TV issues.
My MicroRendu is coming today and I was planning on connecting it to my Kefs by USB.
I was already thinking I wanted something to run Roon Core instead of my Mac and SonicOrbiter looks like the way to go.
Are you saying I would not need to direct connect the MicroRendu to the Kefs and can use Kefs and Roons ability to do DLNA/UPNP instead?
It is not anyone else’s job to prove your negative especially since you are so clearly misinformed and haven’t take the trouble to look.
@DarwinOS and @WiWavelength , Please keep on the topic - KEF LS50 Wireless - roon ready?
