ROON ON THE ROAD

“Roon has set the standard for music experience in the home, and the thing we’ve heard most often from Roon users is that they want to take that experience on the road” says​ Enno Vandermeer, Founder and CEO of Roon.

QOBUZ AND TIDAL

Roon ARC integrates directly with TIDAL and Qobuz, linking your library of music with the millions of tracks available on these streaming platforms. This integration not only means there is no longer any need to switch between different apps on your mobile device for streaming services, you can access TIDAL and Qobuz directly from Roon ARC, it also ensures that all this music is subject to Roon’s immersive metadata.

SIGNAL PATH

Roon ARC utilizes the same audio framework that has made Roon at home essential for audiophile streaming, by optimizing the signal path, Roon ARC ensures the best possible sound quality from whichever mobile device you’re enjoying your music on. The ‘Signal Path’ information tab within the app displays how the audio you’re listening to flows through to your device, all the way from source media to your headphones.

MUSIC OFFLINE

Even when you are stuck without mobile data or internet access the Roon ARC app allows you to easily download any of your local playlists and albums directly to your mobile device so you can enjoy them offline. As Roon ARC downloads music to your phone in its original file format, rather than being compressed, you are ensured the best quality playback possible.
