Can’t say I’ve noticed it being any better, quite apart from as you say it’s downsides.

Can you set Roon to playback in mono

We didn’t make a mono button, but we did include a matrix mixer in the Procedural EQ using the “Mix” feature. It’s totally possible to mix both channels down to mono if you want: [image] Set it up like this: Left, Left, -3 Right, Right, -3 Left, Right, -3 Right, Left, -3 Pay attention to Headroom Management. If you’re clipping, either make more headroom, or make those -3’s a little bit more negative. You shouldn’t have to go below -6, but it’s nicer to attenuate less when possible.
