Roon sold to Harman. Implications?

Roon made exceptions for Linn and KEF LS50w and Devialet as they needed not to lose these companies as they were growing. KEF and Devialet are now roon ready so I would expect Linn to be dropped if they don’t go the full Roon ready route. There are already threads about incompatibilities of Roon and Linn with some sample rates on the Roon forum.

I’d also would be surprised if LMS integration was kept up to date.

An interesting one will be HQ Player integration which quite a few seem to use judging by the Roon forum. However Harmon would have the readies to buy out Jussi and this would position Roon very strongly if they had HQP filters integrated.

Interesting times.
