Roon began in 2015 as a specialised digital audiophile platform and has evolved into an essential companion for music enthusiasts worldwide over the past ten years.

Roon has gained popularity through its unified music management that combines your streaming libraries, personal music files, and live radio in one seamless and intuitive interface. Here, you can explore interactive artist bios, liner notes, lyrics, album credits, and images while enjoying up to 32-bit/768khz PCM playback, with complete signal transparency and advanced DSP capabilities.

During that decade, Roon delivered innovations such as its RAAT streaming protocol to the widely respected Roon Ready device ecosystem, advanced sound processing, and the liberating Roon ARC mobile app. Each of these advancements aimed to enrich your connection to music.

Roon's record of ingenuity ultimately led to Harman International's acquisition of Roon in 2023. This has since enabled the company to strengthen its commitment to customers and accelerate technological advancements, resulting in the Nucleus One and Titan hardware products, Roon Ready Relay vinyl playback, and the community-driven OPRA headphone optimisation tool.

Looking back over Roon's decade of achievements, Enno Vandermeer, Co-Founder of Roon Labs, told StereoNET:

For ten years, our mission has been to create the most engaging way to explore, discover, and listen to music. What began as a passion project has grown into a platform trusted by hundreds of thousands of music enthusiasts all over the world. As we celebrate this milestone, we're more dedicated than ever to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in connecting people with the music they love.

To celebrate this anniversary, Roon invites new and former subscribers to explore their award-winning platform with a special introductory offer of three months for $10 (May 9th-16th) — and 10% off Nucleus hardware for all customers (May 12th–May 14th).

Roon says that, as it enters its second decade, "the company remains committed to redefining music experiences while honouring its original vision and the passionate community that has fueled its success."

Here's to many more years of shared music exploration and enjoyment.
