I don’t pay Toshiba a subscription fee to play my Vinyls nor to Sony to play my SACDs. I’ll give a try to Audirvana Studio, but I don’t have the impression that DSF-WV won’t be supported. Now a days, I play most of my music with HQPlayer and JRiver.

I keep using Audirvana 2.5 with an old Mac. And I don’t care at all about MQA as I’m not a Tidal subscriber.Īs Audirvana 3.5 does not support DSF-WV, I did not upgrade to it and remained with Audirvana 2.5. SSD drives are still very expensive, so I converted progressively during the last years my DSD files to DSF-WV, and with Covid-19 confinement I had plenty of time to finish this annoying job. I think we have zillion complaints on this forum and that’s why I am interested in honest good word !Īctually, there’s no player that provides full satisfaction regarding the various music formats.Īudirvana plays all the formats you mentioned, but it does not support a very useful format which is DSF-WV, while Foobar, JRiver, HQPlayer, Roon and even VOX or Collibri, all support it very well. In this section only positive feedback please ! I am happy that I can play those mentioned formats within one application. What is your positive opinion about this software ? Maybe I am wrong and I don’t know about some application that is playing without converting, extracting SACD ISO to DSF and also playing MQA It sounds great with cheap IFi Zen Dac, installed on older computer with only 8 GB of RAMįor you maybe there is something more important than Audirvana support for those kind of files that I am getting excited about ?

Jriver and Foobar can not unfold and play MQAĪctually only one that I know of is Audirvana !

I know only 3 apps that can play SACD ISO : Audirvana, Jriver Media Centre and free Foobar 2000 More advanced programs can play DSD, DXD, Monkey Audio etc I am here because I couldn’t find on planet earth any universal software that would play all kind of popular these days music formats. I am not interested about negative opinions !īut you are here reading this posts, so you have interest in Audirvana progress or recent changes from Version 3.5 to Audirvana Studio. There is so many other players free and paid choices ! I am wondering why did you choose Audirvana ?
