Does Roon sound better?


I have Auralic Altair streamer-DAC and use TIDAL wi-fi streaming. It sounds nice.
Auralic Altair is Roon ready.
Worth it use Roon???

Thanks

@1markr oh yes, I spent many an hour tweaking with iZotope - often diligently following the precision guidance of others, or just experimenting. I eventually moved away from upsampling, as I have done also with Roon.  One major plus of Roon is the ability to toggle so easily between settings, or turning upsampling on or off on the fly.  It makes it so much easier to find the settings that really work with your equipment. 
I've used Audirvana for 6 years because I really enjoyed the sound and thought it probably couldn't be bettered (especially in recent updates).  Last year I tried Roon.  I think it sounds better and in spite of the cost I'll extend my subscription - it's worth it.  I've tried going back to A+ but the difference in SQ has me switching back after a few minutes.  No matter what people in this thread are writing, they're not the same.
