Amen.
The cynic in me says the I/F madness is a conspiracy: half the money made in high-end audio is because the interfaces suck. This core morass has led to both the cable industry and the seemingly-normative behavior of swapping out $1000++ components b/c they lack 'synergy.'
(Another 40% of problems come from the lack of EQ ("tone controls"). What a canny move by manufacturers! We'll make consumers swap out whole components and cables to affect EQ.)
Getting back on track... While I have been and continue to be a fan and supporter of Rob and PM/PV, I am quite impressed with Fidelia. On redbook, it would appear to at least equal and possibly surpass PM. To my ears and on my system, the jury's still out on 176/192 between the two. Right now, I'd give the nod to PM at 3X.
Fidelia is also quite polished and very stable for a V1.0.x product. Only one crash - at 176.
