Roon, a luxury, high-performance home audio platform for music lovers, has announced the release of Nucleus One, the newest addition to the Nucleus music server product line.
The company states that its new server leverages advances in computer technology, technical design, and manufacturing processes to deliver a competitively priced turn-key device specifically intended for Roon’s library management, music exploration, and multiroom music player software.
“In the rare case where one team can control hardware, firmware, operating system, and application software, it’s possible to do amazing things. You can create products that are rock-solid and feature-rich, which provide the foundation of a great user experience. We’ve been lucky enough to do it a few times, starting with the Sooloos system nearly 20 years ago,” comments Enno Vandermeer, founder Roon. “That product had a five-figure retail price, and we’ve been on a mission ever since to develop something we could recommend to our friends and families. Nucleus One is the culmination of all our experience up to this point: a dedicated Roon server for the price of an off-the-shelf mini PC.”
Nucleus One Server Delivers Value
Nucleus products have been a popular choice of those seeking the best possible server/streamer option for Roon, and the audio content management company notes that its latest product takes a giant step forward with these new offerings. The new, affordable server joins Nucleus Titan, replacing previous Nucleus models with updated hardware and improved performance to provide professional integrators with an easy setup and reliable operation, and homeowners with design aesthetics that complement their homes and other electronic component.
Roon boasts that Nucleus One sets a new standard in the Nucleus product line. Comparable in performance to the previous Nucleus, the company continues, its latest component is an affordably priced, dedicated Roon server molded from high-quality polycarbonate with visual characteristics that echo the premium Nucleus Titan.
