  Oct 04,  · Agree, on Windows the differences are huge. I preferred ASIO4ALL over WASAPI as well. But MacBook + Audirvana is consistently better defined and with more bass.

Fluffy Addicted to Fun and Learning Oct 4, Joined Sep 14, Messages Likes 1, I personally never heard a difference between the sound of different programs, and I really don't understand why there should be one TBH.

I choose what program to use based on features. If the music is played well it sounds correct, if not you can clearly hear glitches and breaks due to a non-continuous data stream. There are no subtleties or nuances to hear if the program functions correctly.

For specific players, please see the headline on my original post. The key advantages of Audirvana, as far as I can tell are 1. Loading the full track into memory and playing it back from there.

Veri Major Contributor Oct 4, Joined Feb 6, Messages 7, Likes 9, Agree, on Windows the differences are huge. For the most part, they do sound the same, in my opinion. For example, there's a track on a very well-recorded Celtic music album I'd have to find it again where there's a certain tenor note that CLEARLY distorts when played through iTunes every time but is rendered perfectly via Audirvana. And, yes, I confirmed both programs were set for bit perfect i. I also hear clear differences between Foobar for example and Roon or Audirvana or I think there's more going on than meets the eye, and I don't like it, frankly being mostly a "bits is bits" kind of guy usually.

Krunok Major Contributor Oct 4, So same thing may apply, even if to a lesser extent, to software players, sound card or DAC driver and so on. Veri said:. Seems extremely odd. Joined Mar 4, Messages Likes 1, It reduces CPU activity and stabilizes power supply to minimize digital distortion and possible radio frequency interference. Let the hardware designer handle the software too. Fluffy Addicted to Fun and Learning Oct 4, Joined Sep 14, Messages Likes 1, This all sounds to me like much ado about nothing.

I use only my computer to play music because everything is stored there and it's completely reliable. I use Winamp for many years now, and compared to Tidal desktop app, Deezer app, playback straight from Audacity or Adobe Audition, I don't notice any difference. As long as it runs smooth without data errors and playing the same file of course , it all sounds the same. The current computer is a beefy Windows 10 editing workstation with i7 k inside.

It can process all the DSP in the world without breaking a sweat. My previous cheap Lenovo laptop worked fine with playing music, but during intensive real time effects processing in Audition I could clearly hear the pops and glitches as it was failing to process them in real time.

There is no such thing with the current machine. The only trouble comes once in a blue moon when either the Schiit Modi or the Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 decide to suddenly disconnect, and then I have to pull the USB out and back in again, and everything works. But this is a general problem with USB connections, and no optimizing software can make a computer completely fail of glitch proof whoever invents that will make a ton of money….

So in essence, I'm completely baffled by claims that the software used to play music can make a difference, or that there is some kind of system-wide optimization that can make digital sound better.

You just need to make sure nothing is obviously fucking with your signal like windows sound enhancements or unwarranted resampling , and everything should be fine. All of those Fidelizer-type apps sound like audiofoolery to me. Just get a decent computer, that's all. Berwhale Major Contributor Forum Donor. Reports of "huge" differences between software players that are properly configured to be bit perfect should be treated with the usual ASR response: Show us the blind test results Vapor9 Member Oct 4, Joined Jun 25, Messages 67 Likes I can certainly say, on my Mac, that Audirvana is an improvement over iTunes.

I still use iTunes to organize and run Audirvana in integrated mode. I also think Audirvana is better than BitPerfect, but the improvement is very subtle. Julf Major Contributor Forum Donor.

All my files are high def FLAC 24 bit. I do not stream - these are all downloads I have purchased. Is it worth it? Last edited: Jun 7, Rattlin' Bones , Jun 7, Foobar is not as pretty in is basic form but it can be customized.

I didn't know you could get it for a mac. It's been years since I used Audirvana or a mac, but if Foobar was available at the time, I would never have purchased Audirvana.

I'd buy more music instead. Maybe it has evolved into something more vsuable since then. Meatface , Jun 7, There are many add on components for Foobar I looked at Audirvana. It looks nice! It covers many file types. I don't forsee any audible benefit over foobar. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Location: Katy, TX. Foobar is great if you want a player but it's not great for searching through files. It's okay, but not great. I personally like JRiver which handles all media not just music.

It handles streaming and it's constantly being updated based on feedback from their forums.
