I've been a Roon user and fanboy for a decade plus. You could even say I've been an evangelizer as a number of my audiophile buddies starting using it after seeing my setup.
But this latest update is a 💩 show.
I've been running Roon Core on a semi retired Mac Mini (2.3 Ghz i7 Quad Core Mac Mini with 16GB of RAM) and it's worked great. Did a restart on the device the other day and discovered that Roon Core no longer works. In fact I can't even find the executable anymore.
So with the latest update Roon has killed my system. I'm basically being forced to upgrade my hardware.
If you want to see the entire thread with support on their community it can be found here:
Now I'm considering ditching Roon altogether unless they make some valiant efforts to make this right.
I already have a 10% coupon for the Roon Nucleus (since I've been a user for 10+ years). What else would be a reasonable ask from Roon to make this right?
Perhaps 25% off a Roon Nucleus? A free year subscription?
Would love feedback from the community.
