T+A JOINS LIST OF ROON READY DEVICES
Roon Ready endpoints continue to grow in number thanks to the latest inclusion of the T+A Multi-Source devices MP 1000 E, R 1000 E, MP 2000 R MKII, CALA CDR and CALA SR.
Roon Ready certification is the highest level of accreditation and integration into the Roon ecosystem.
All the listed T+A models, except the digital-only CALA SR, house a first-class CD mechanism, a high-performance digital tuner offering FM, FM-HD and DAB+ reproduction. Furthermore, they also sport a high-quality Bluetooth streaming module, a streaming client with internet radio and music services for connection to the home network via LAN and WLAN. Additionally, T+A tells us that the MP 2000 R MKII includes the world’s most advanced D/A converters that handle PCM up to 384 kSps and native DSD up to DSD 512 with T+A’s proprietary True 1-Bit Converter.
Owners will be glad to know that no hardware changes are necessary, all you have to do is merely upgrade to Roon Ready functionality via a firmware update.
Siegfried Amft, Owner and Managing Director of T+A elektroakustik GmbH & Co. KG. told StereoNET:
After we accomplished the Roon Ready certification for our MP 8 in August this year, we are pleased that five of our most successful streaming devices have reached the same status now. Further T+A streaming devices are currently undergoing the certification process and will follow in due time.
Being able to access Roon is quite a bonus as Roon software provides an impressive user interface that is made for music lovers. It offers best in class audio performance and seamless integration of local personal content with the 30 million track library of TIDAL.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
