I seriously considered this at the end of last year when I heard it was forthcoming. The fact it did not support Roon was the deal-breaker for me at the time. I had just gotten my Sonore microRendu and was very happy with it, as well.
I would expect that the Sonica would become Roon-ready as the 203/205 are; it's a bit of a surprise they have not updated it already.
It's much more important that a product support Roon than that whole MQA thang...
