As some people requested me for ABX files to test with DBT (double blind test), I recorded again today and made two separated files for testing purpose below.

I recommend Foobar2000 with ABX Comparator component). Personally, I find DBT as a method to measure human’s hearing rather than the equipment as some people who fail Tidal test, MP3/FLAC doesn’t mean MP3 is as good as FLAC.
Here’s another feedback today. I received his appreciation message after delivering his second license.
Many thanks. This is my second purchase from you. I know it works extremely well :). I have one installed on my audiopc at home. This one is for my laptop when away from home. Keep doing what you are doing 🙂
Best regards
I’m glad to hear Fidelizer Pro is working well on both machines. 🙂
Today my net was down all day. I was bored so I conducted some tests about audio optimizations on bit-perfect playback. The test is very simple, I setup bit-perfect playback, play music, optimize, and play again. Here is information about test equipment
Sound recording device: Oppo Find7s (CM13 with built-in Sound Recorder)
Test machine: Dad’s common Desktop PC with Intel i5 processor running Windows 10 Pro
Audio Interface: Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Software setup: foobar2000 with ASIO plugin (ReplayGain disabled)
Testing track: Britten: Simple Symphony, Op. 4 – TrondheimSolistene (2L – the Nordic Sound)
Output: Klipsch Promedia GMX A-2.1 speakers
After listening to the first performance, I’ll apply the following optimizations as below:
-Reduce output buffering from 1000ms to 50ms
-Increase full file buffering size for memory playback
-Run Fidelizer (free) on Extremist optimization level with foobar2000 as music player application
The recording was done in a single session without using any editing tool to ensure there’s no modification to the recording. Let us know what you think after listening to recorded performance.
Here’s a new feedback today. I received his appreciation message after sending him a new update.
Brilliant, thanks. Really enjoying the program by the way, I’m using it with process lasso now to kill off all other processes. Great stuff.
You can also use Process Lasso to maintain priority and affinity of specific processes too further optimizations.
Here’s a new feedback today. This time it’s quite an interesting setup for streamer approach.
Hi, Lucifiar
I run Fidelizer Pro + Asset UPnP Server + Linn Kazoo on Windows 10, It sounds greater than J.River Media Center 21, the background is very dark, instruments sound separately and clearly, I like it.
I hope Windows-based uPNP streamer will become a trend in 2016. 🙂
