Roon Ready PS Audio -- I'm having a problem!

If you’re having trouble using your PS Audio device with Roon, we are here to help.

First Confirm Your Firmware

Make sure you’re running the latest firmware.

You can confirm this on the version page of the display screen:

  • DirectStream - Press the gear in the upper left hand corner of the screen.
  • At least: 1.8.8

  • DirectStream jr - Cycle through the setup pages until you hit the version screen
  • At least: 94

  • PerfectWave DAC - Go to the bridge setup page and it should show on the last line
  • At least: 2.9.7

Please check with PS Audio for the latest version numbers.


Important: Have you restarted your PS Audio hardware recently? (If not, this is always a good place to start)
