Fidelizer is now partnered with Audirvana

 

 

Audirvana Partner

 

Today we have very exciting news to share with Fidelizer fans. Fidelizer is now partnered with Audirvana company. Through past years we’ve been setting up Audirvana software to work with Nimitra as both uPNP endpoint device and server to run Audirvana software.

Audirvana has been supportive with Fidelizer software for many years. After they launched “plays with Audirvana” partner program, we immediately reached out to Audirvana and conducted extensive tests with them to make sure everything will work smoothly with Nimitra.

Audirvana X FIdelizer partner program went smoothly and now Nimitra customers can purchase Fidelizer Nimitra server with Audirvana 3 months free trial program. Customers who purchased Nimitra before can request for setting up Audirvana with 3 months free trial too. 🙂

Added EtherStream+ feedback from Jarupat Mueangkaeo

 

EtherStream2 - Network Switch

 

And here’s a new feedback today. He shared his feedback after upgrading from EtherStream to EtherStream+ version as below.

I’ve tried listening to the switch and it sounds much better. It flows smoothly and the vocals sound more melodious. The sound details are improved, and it’s much clearer to listen to with greater detail.

And here’s his original message in Thai.

ได้ลองฟัง switch แล้วครับ น่าฟังขึ้นมากฟังลื่นไหล เสียงร้องมีลีลาน่าฟังขึ้นมาก รายละเอียดของเสียงดีขึ้น ฟังได้รายละเอียดมากขึ้นครับ

I’m happy to see customers who’ve been supporting this project since early days still use EtherStream and continue to grow his system with Fidelizer. 🙂
