Hi Kal, what do you mean nothing new? This makes all of the listed devices native RAAT roon endpoints doesn't it? I don't understand the no LAN connection part of your comment either. All of the Denon models for example with an "H" or Heos models with a LAN connection.

Edit: Is this just through Airplay 2, or are they Roon RAAT endpoints?

Aha! AFAIK, all through Airplay2.
I have used Airplay 2 already on my Denon X8500 and it works very well. I had just assumed this was going to be a RAAT endpoint for Denon/Marantz. Thanks for your reply

AirPlay, indeed. My Denon AVR-X3400H firmware says it is all up to date (nothing new lately), and while it does show in my ROON devices list, it connects via "AirPlay Streaming" and the link status is green, "Signal Path: High Quality". Note that this is over WiFi (not wired ethernet). But that is how I use it. Has anyone gotten a 'better' connection path?
