How are you connecting things? The sMS-200 is a Roon Ready network player and should be used via Ethernet.
So, I assume the 3R Booster is between the 200 and a DAC. The reason nothing is reported is that this device probably doesn’t provide signalling. IOW, it’s not a USB Audio compliant.
That said, it serves no useful purpose in your audio chain.
re-generating, re-clocking, re-driving the USB source signal.
USB Audio is asyncronous, so reclocking etc. is not relevant in this situation, since the DAC controls timing.
For the SMS-200 to work as a Roon Ready zone, it needs to have a device connected to it. The Booster is likely preventing the audio device from being detected. The SMS-200 works as expected without the booster, is that correct?
