Just tried the JPlay 6 beta in conjunction with Fidelizer Pro. The sound is just incredible! I am a cellist and I listen to mainly classical music. It sounds so much more organic compared to JPlay 5xx. Not that JPlay 5xx is sluggish to start with. The v6 beta has so much more shadings and micro dynamics in the whole frequency spectrum. I am listening to Mischa Maisky playing the Bach Cello Suites as I am writing this. The rendering of the cello is just mind boggling. I used to own a whole DCS stack and I must say this is by far the most palpable and life like cello sound from an audio system using digital source!Just to add some perspective, the playback chain includes:
