Thanks for the info Tom, and much appreciated! So I see from the Player dashboard I can select Roon/HQPlayer OR simply select standalone HQPlayer that will run the native app I see you've screenshotted in here? Do I have that right? As I recall there is fee is sorts they charge after "free trial." If it sounds THAT good would be happy to pay up but imagine no harm no foul to try it out if as simple as it seems? Don't know why I was left with the impression I needed room measurements but of course take you at your word! And BTW, which sounds better to you? Roonw/HQPlayer or "HQPlayer(Auto)? And maybe it was DSP I was thinking required measurements ... Thanks again!@KrellFan1
You don‘t need room measurements to use HQPlayer…
HQplayer can be used in Roon as a player/zone, so interface is still Roon.
Sound of this „Solution“ in the Antipodes-dashboard is up to 9.
I use this also (and at the moment) for my favorite radio-Station „Radio Paradise“ and Qobuz-streaming.
But for intensive listening session I stop Roon and use HQPDcontroll as interface with the local files on the SDD within the K50.
The GUI of HQPDcontroll is simple - but as a complete album listener it works for me:
