Uniti line support for Roon

Posted by: Hanover33 on 20 June 2017

Hello [@mention:1566878603985147], a while back you posted in the Roon forums that the new Uniti line would include Roon support at some point. May we get an update? Also, given Roon supports MQA, what might Naim's viewpoint on that be?

Also, does the NOva support USB input other than storage - i.e. For digital input?

I'm considering a Nova upgrade to my beloved SuperUniti....currently I run Roon Core on a Mac Mini through a USB/SPDIF converter...I'd love to simplify this to an all Naim solution.

Hi,

I don't have any further information that I can share with you at this time on Roon / MQA support on new Uniti platform until such time as an official announcement is made.

The USB ports are "Type A" ports for the connection of mass storage devices and iPhones etc. - they cannot be used as an asynchronous USB input from a PC.

Cheers

Phil

Curious why no async USB input - the vDAC has one? Seems a miss for a 7k investment?
