RE: Fidelia VS Pure Music

What Rob Robinson tries to accomplish I pretty much accomplished more then 3 years ago on my Linux system. You can find all about it at my Linux Audio thread at DIY-Audio. (Cics has done it a bit later on XP and Peter Stordiau at the same time as I did with XX-Highend on Vista)

Just to make it clear: All this is nothing Sonic Studio with Amarra or Channel D with Pure Music have invented!

However. All this "audiophile" SW-player discussion should not be required, if those DAC manufacturers would built better audio interfaces. I find it almost emberassing that the majority of those manufacturers is not able to cope with the subject after all those years. Those manufacturers know very well about the issue.

If you as a manufacturer want to stick to e.g. USB you need better solutions then just async USB interfaces. I do see non to very little progress in that area. As long as as "audiophile" players makes a difference I'd say that the DAC manufactureres havn't done their
job jet. I'm looking foward to the first product which is immune
against PC induced distortions.


Cheers

P.S: As many of my Linux optimizations as possible went into my SB Touch Toolbox. These are open to public and free of charge.
