    I've never used Chromecast before, but I have compared AirPlay and Roon on my RoPieee. I had a similar experience as you: Roon sounds better.

    Oh man - I want Roon in my kitchen and outside with my Bluetooth Soundcore speakers. This could achieve that for a decent price, lol.

    I'm using my WiiM Pros (2) to run 2 pairs of outdoor speakers. WiiM Pro's into Modi 3/Magni 3 and Modi MB/Sys to Gjallarhorns. Speakers are Polk Atriums (45 and 8SDi). I've got close neighbors so it's plenty of power. Not critical listening, but sounds surprisingly good.

    And I was really surprised at how much separation and definition improved. They got the Roon Ready FW while I was listening to music, so the music stopped playing. I set up the Roon Ready outputs and did a double take at the sound difference vs using Chromecast mode with the WiiMs
