ROON NUCLEUS REV B MUSIC SERVER

What is Nucleus?
At the heart of every Roon system is a Roon Core. This is the brain behind the entire Roon experience – it manages your music collection, streams to your audio devices, and stores the Roon database. Nucleus was developed by the Roon team to provide a silent, high-performance, power-efficient appliance to host the Roon Core. Every aspect of the hardware, operating system and software is optimized to make Nucleus the very best way to run Roon-by the same team that made Roon.
Controlling Nucleus
Nucleus has no display or interactive components. To experience Roon, you'll download the Roon app on a Mac or Windows PC, iPad, iPhone, or Android device. Note: Only Mac, Windows, and tablets provide access to all of Roon's features. Due to their smaller screens, the Roon app on phones has a limited feature set.
