I enjoyed Audirvana very much until, as my media library grew, I noticed constant hangs with the software loading the library.

I recently spent some additional coin on converting my lic from Mac-only to cross-platform so I could install on Win 10.
Audirvana latest version upgrade#
I started with Audirvana back in 2017 (v2), I’ve had a free upgrade to the latest version ever since. I’ll probably pick up Audirvana here soon, I like Roons service, but my actual FLAC collection wouldn’t do its service justice. Any above statements are based off audio memory (which humans are notoriously bad at on the averages). Also, I have not done this with Roon and Audirvana. Once again this is just my experience and not without faults or bias. I can usually, but not always spot smaller changes. One thing I’ve found that helps me personally to spot a difference is total immersion for preferably a week, than switching back to the previous norm I’ve established. Waiting for luggage… So, I think (not a scientist or engineer) based on my limited experience in this field/world…that software based players fall in the realm of DACs…but, further removed and even less of a difference in sound difference.īut, that being said, they still can have a noticeable difference, for better or worse.
Getting off plane…I’ll try and revisit later… I think these things fall into the realm of being that final 1-3% improvement realm (arbitrary % so don’t go quoting me lol). I think the long and short of it is, for me, if there IS an improvement in A+'s sound then eitherī) The improvement is so small that I won’t be giving up Roon’s user experience for A+. I may have heard differences, but I don’t know if I really did, and while I don’t think I did, it’s possible they were there. When it was disabled, it made noticing any perceived differences way harder.īasically, I think the differences are completely in the realm of placebo and confirmation bias plausibly being the only difference between the sound of these two programs on my system. Honestly, I think I can chalk up the differences to mismatched volumes thanks to turning on the ReplayGain. Sometimes it just sounded a little softer. Note - I can’t say it was always different, or that it was a bad different, or even a good different. Over the years, I approached every new subject, explored every idea for improvement, always with the same high standards and the ambition to make Audirvāna the best solution for playing music from a computer.Īudirvāna Studio as we know it today is the result of all this work.So, enabling up-sampling and “preserve album dynamics” did have an audible effect while DIRECTLY comparing playback to Roon.
I then realized I had an opportunity to seize make a purity of reproduction, an uncompromising level of quality in the service of the emotions that music alone can make us feel available. I received extremely positive feedback from the community and this encouraged me to continue its development. The results were extremely encouraging as I felt like I was getting back the feeling I was looking for.
I plucked up the courage to go for it, with the sole aim of creating the ultimate audio software. One would have thought a computer should sound as good as a CD player! I finally convinced myself that I could do better. I found these solutions to be technically questionable and the listening quality extremely poor. I was disappointed when I tried the various “audiophile” playback solutions available at the time. After ripping them to a digital format, I wanted to listen to them from my computer. The Audirvāna adventure started with a boxed set of 56 CDs by Aldo Cicciolini, a pianist I love. This is undoubtedly the invisible force that guides me in my daily work. Both the artist and the audience had joined together on the edge of this interpretation, which gave meaning to each note, a meaning understood by all, in a rare union and harmony that no one wanted to break by applauding. The most striking memory is the never-ending and sublime silence that followed the last notes of the Chopin prelude played as an encore by François -René Duchâble during a concert at Mogador.
