When AVR’s are Roon Tested, that mean the device is profiled by the Roon team to ensure simple setup and effortless daily use. Instead of Roon's streaming technology, Roon Tested devices use Airplay, USB, and/or Chromecast.

When an Onkyo AVR is certified as “Works With Roon,” whether that be Roon Ready or Roon Tested, it means the receiver has undergone compatibility testing and met the standards set by Roon Labs, ensuring that it seamlessly integrates and functions with the Roon software for a smooth and optimized user experience. It also means that the product can be easily recognized and controlled by the Roon software and will appear as a recognized device within the Roon software's interface. Once detected, it can be controlled directly from the Roon interface, allowing you to manage playback, adjust settings, and stream music to the device seamlessly.
