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. 🙂
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.
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. 🙂

And here’s another feedback today. He shared his feedback after upgrading from Plus to Pro version to use with Ableton Live software as below.
From Plus to PRO, I noticed the most improvement everywhere. Imaging turned out to be more 3D, not exactly “holographic” but definitely more 3D, I can pick up each individual instrument with ease, there’s more transparency, everything sounds cleaner and clearer, mid/high resolution has improved as well as the lower frequencies (cleaner/tighter). Inside Ableton Live this made all the difference as it helps me choose sounds easily, have a better sense of what’s going on, due to improved separation and detail, and helps me make better mixing and mastering decisions. I use a high-end audio interface with the greatest DAC’s and clocking and high-end monitors and headphones and even so, there was room for improvement. Every seasoned music producer should use this.
I’m glad to hear that Fidelizer can help with music production in Ableton Live and happy listening. 🙂
And here’s a new feedback today. He shared his feedback after installing Fidelizer Pro on his dual PC setup with JPLAY as below.
Dear Keetakawee,
Thank you very much for refunding my money. I installed 2PC(JPLAY ControlPC&AudioPC) and it’s working perfectly. Very happy with the result. Thank you very much!
I’m happy to hear that he’s very happy with the result and happy listening. 🙂
