Did they ever adjust release notes to include Roon Ready? Last I looked this morning it wasn’t there but it really doesn’t matter since it works now.
I have not read this anywhere…
Could anyone let me know how the ZONE2 and 3 are handled by ROON. This is the first verified AVR that I am aware of from Marantz that’s certified ROON ready and I’d be interested to know how this is working. It’s a feature in RHEOS that several users rely on, but I can’t test as I don’t have an AV10.
I’d also be interested in what is shown on the two displays when playing from ROON - I’m working on this for RHEOS but there are a lot of different variants to Denon and Marantz displays.
Is bottom display changes to track title / artist, when status button pressed once and to album title when pressed twice.
Also is there / (forward slash) before artist which trims artist line by one character.
I’ve emailed Denon support some time ago, asking to remove it but they refused to do it so.
Wondering will future line of Marantz/Denon AVRs will introduce multichannel HEOS and similar display as seen in LINK10 preamp streamer.

Only shows zone 1. Have to use heos app to turn the other 2 on and then it plays it all as one zone, just like in heos app.
Shame as now still need heos app.
Only supports stereo, converts 5.1 to 2.0
Did you notice that after the firmware update that the web portal port for managing the AV10 via a browser changed to port 11080?
Happy to see this finally. Is this normal for the AV10 to convert DSD to PCM?
Under Device Setup there is no DSD Playback Strategy to select DSD Native?
Hi Todd,
No I hadn’t noticed — I use the Marantz AVR app for Web Control.
How are you liking your AV10? Do you have the AMP10 as well?
I launched the web control from the app as well as from my desktop browser and both went to the old port. I fixed it on the browser by going to http://ipaddress and it auto corrected to the right port. I really like the AV10. I don’t have the AMP10 as I use 3 other amps to drive my setup.
Probably normal.
Most AV equipment operate as black boxes. They can accept and proudly display input of many different audio formats. They just do not display what they do internally with those audio formats. And most do convert DSD to PCM. Roon pulls back that curtain in some cases.

Todd, would you mind playing a DSD64/DSF file and share the signal path?
Thanks
Thanks Todd, I have an Eversolo as well and that is correct. I am curious if you stream from ROON directly to the AV10 what the Signal Path looks like via DSD64/DSf.
Thanks
I posted that path above. It coverts it to pcm. I’m thinking the AV10 through Roon can only do HiRes non DSD and no multi channel
I think what is happening is that the AV10 is doing signal processing of the inbound signal, that shows up to Roon as the bass and midrange boost in your image. DSP can only be done with PCM. DSD doesn’t allow any signal processing, which is why most music is recorded in PCM and then upsampled to DSD after all of the edits have been done in the DAW. The Eversolo is DSD capable, so that’s all Roon can see. It doesn’t know that Eversolo is then passing that signal to the AV10 or what the AV10 is doing with it. Roon only sees the RAAT endpoint. I assume the Eversolo is outputting an analog signal to the AV10, which may then be getting sampled to PCM so it can use the DSP for the same bass and midrange boost.
Yup I see it now, Thanks! I am not applying any DSP and you may be correct…
