BRYSTON BDP DIGITAL PLAYERS NOW Roon Ready
Bryston S2.28 Firmware Update offers Roon Ready Capability for Digital Music
Players BDP-1, BDP-1USB and BDP-2 Elegant music library management and TIDAL integration enhances user experience for award winning Bryston digital music players Bryston (bryston.com) has announced new firmware version S2.28 for their digital music players that delivers Roon Ready capability. Roon Labs has created a software solution that delivers the ultimate user experience by merging Bryston’s exceptional BDP digital playback hardware with an intuitive, graphically rich music library management and playback software. Users get the superb sound of Bryston digital players with a highly refined user interface. Tech Talk: When using Roon, there are three components involved: The Roon Core, which must exist within a computer (PC or MAC) or a compatible drive on the home network so that it can have local access to your digital music collection, a remote or user interface (iOS or Android device as well as any computer) also on the network, and an end point—which in this case would be any Bryston digital music player. Adapting the Bryston BDP music players so that they are now Roon Ready devices enables users to benefit from the remarkable sound quality of Bryston's BDP-1, BDP-1USB and BDP-2 players with a bright, colorful and intuitive user interface that provides new features and accessibility to the listening experience. Roon transfers the audio files to the Bryston BDP player using a bit perfect system, enabling Bryston’s ultra-precise clock, linear power supply and custom integrated audio device (IAD) to convert ,the content to a digital bitstream that is ready for an outboard DAC. Another advantage of the Roon interface is their unique approach to TIDAL lossless streaming integration for subscribers. Now BDP users can have their TIDAL favorites aggregated with their local\ music library so that searches and playlists can include content from both sources. With a simple firmware update, all BDP-1, BDP-1USB and BDP-2 devices become Roon Ready. Use the Update Firmware function in Settings to update to the new version S2.28 firmware. Bryston is offering a free 60-day Roon trial coupon for a limited time. Interested users can learn more at roonlabs.com. |

The new software for the BDP to accept Roon should be ready by weeks end.

And also, for you RoonHeads out there, there is an official RoonServer version/install for certain Synology and QNAP NAS systems. No longer do you even need a computer in the mix.

Not for me.
While I applaud Bryston Engineers for attempting to keep their digital players improving, I have no need for Roon as I am satisfied the way the interface looks now. I don't care about colorful interface, just the music.

Never mind. After poking around on the Roon site I seen my Synology CPU is not recommended, it's an Atom plus I don't have SSD drives so 2 strikes. 3rd strike is only 1GB of memory.

Help...Updated BDP-1 frmware, switched to Roon ready, signed up Roon, download sftware, added music files, but Roon doesn't list BDP-1 on network but "sees" both apple tv devices on network.
I can log into BDP-1 from same server running Roon, so netwook seems OK...server is latest MacPro "trash can" running latest OSX. Thoughts? Steve |
