Just got a new Marantz M1. Connection was a breeze and Roon immediately picked it up as an Airplay device. So far playback has been amazing. Not a hiccup. Sounds amazing, and fits right in with our other Roon-y zones!

Not Roon tested or Roon Ready I believe?
Looks really very good. Any new features over the older HEOS Amp?
I expect this will work nicely with RHEOS and allow pairing with other HEOS devices if youāre interested in testing the extension and exploring playing at higher resolutions than offered by Airplay and taking advantage of the Marantz DAC.

I have one other Denon receiver and have played with HEOS a little bit. I have to admit that once I started with Roon I havenāt even opened HEOS except to install the new M1.
I guess Iāll have to study up on RHEOS and extensions.
Always something to learn!

Rheos allows to stream to Heos enabled devices with Roon and not be limited by Airplay so you get full resolution playback up to 192/24. I use it with my Model 40n all the time. Works great.

The news stories on this one suggest Roon Ready is on the way / in development.

Has been for Denon/Maranatz heos products since December last year. Only time will tell when or if it finally arrives. Given Roons big backlog of devices I wonāt hold my breath.

So took the plunge and just installed in the system my wife uses daily - mainly airplay but as expected RHEOS discovered and adopted - now 16 zones!

When I Connect M1 with AirPlay from Roon its full 100 volyme
It works good with HEOS and TIDAL AirPlay
What am I doning wrong ?
I set safe and comfort limits.
This thread might be of interest if your issue persists. Max volume at start - can't control volume from software [Ticket In] - #61 by Ulf_Silbersky
The M1 is now ROON ready.
Really very nicely done integration - sounds great.

Sure you donāt want a Model 10 looks to be a real beast of an amp with SACD10 and LINK10n as
a separate streamer in the same range.

Overkill for my wifeās office - where the M1 is a big hit. Beautiful amp though.
This may be even be a target for my listening room where the Devialet Experts are anchoring at present. However I think the next splurge will be on M4s to bring the whole house system into the ROON Ready world without the need for RHEOS (though I think 'Ill be producing some new code for legacy systems that need to work with Roon ready players - a couple of issues Iām seeing with identifying when switched to ROON vs other inputs for the HEOS players).
Iām a sucker for the āMarantz Soundā - nostalgia as my first real HiFi rig was centered around a Superscope by Marantz Receiver ā¦ (So you can 
work out my age )

Unless you have Devialet SAM enabled speakers a move to Marantz should be good.
I do have SAM enabled - so sounds pretty good to me!
Always tempting though ā¦
