    Apple Music lossless is finally coming to Windows 11!

    Windows Store updated the app yesterday to a new version. I cannot find release notes and still no WASAPI output.

    total EQ newbie with questions

    This is good info! Thank you both! I am now looking at the Sonarworks SoundID Reference app for Windows as a potential EQ to try out and use. How are you all outputting sound from your favorite music player app? I am assuming you wont be able to use WASAPI exclusive mode in something like...

    total EQ newbie with questions

    I am curious about EQ. I have never attempted this before, but I do calibrate my home theater, so why not my 2-channel "audiophile" rig? :D So historically, I have always been in the mindset that NOTHING should touch the source file. In the Windows world, this means WASAPI must be used. EQ seems...

    Apple Music LosslessSwitcher app for Mac

    iPadOS and iOS devices will auto change bit depth and sample rate. macOS devices will not. Annoying that macOS still hasn’t had this fixed.

    Apple Music LosslessSwitcher app for Mac

    Serious? This is big news! So you are saying that your DAC auto switches to different bit depths and sample rates depending on the track you are playing in Apple Music? To my knowledge, macOS has never been able to do this....only iOS and iPadOS has this capability.

    What items have you purchased as a result of ASR?

    Top rated (SINAD) DAC and pre-amp from Topping. My OCD feels much better now. ;) Purifi amps. I also no longer worry about stuff like most all "high-end" cabling and power management products. Feels good.

    Topping LA90 Review (Integrated Amplifier)

    Hopefully the more powerful version gets rid of the volume control, adds speakon and integrates the power supply.

    What are we listening to right now..

    I just discovered the artist named Plini. Both his albums sound amazing! I would best describe it as Joe Satriani playing djent/prog music. It is all instrumental. https://www.plini.co/

    VTV Purifi Eval-1 build

    I have two VTV Purifi EVAL2 mono block amps. I had to send one back recently because when I would power it on, it would cause a horrible surge of distortion thru the speaker it was connected to. This started randomly and then was pretty consistent. Before I sent it back, it was throwing two...

    I wonder if that SMSL PO100 will work with the latest iPad Pro type C output and also supply the necessary power to the device?

    Hypex Announces New and Improved NCOREx Class-D Amplifier Technology

    How do we calculate the wattage used by our amps at normal listening volume? Just have to use a kill-a-watt meter or something? I have bypassed the buffer on my amps and my pre-amp sits at about -30 dB pretty much all the time unless I have someone over and I am showing off what my system can...
