And now we reached 2,300th milestone. As a reminder to inform customers that they receive refund for returning customer purchase, I’m running purchase offer again in this week. I also sent partial refund back for customer who placed an order on 15th May 2017.
Fidelizer Plus: US $39.95 —> $34.95 (Expired)
Fidelizer Pro: US $69.95 —> $59.95 (Expired)
Other Fidelizer software purchases: US $5 discount (Expired)
This offer will last until 2nd July 2017. Discount rate is the same as purchasing Fidelizer software again so new customer and returning customer will get the same price. You may order again anytime and receive partial-refund as discount later after this campaign is over.
This week we will also celebrate the first anniversary of Fidelizer Nimitra Computer Audio Server product with firmware 2.0 update. Nimitra firmware 2.0 comes with changes and adjustments through the year with the following updates:
-Added core isolation design making effective use of quad core with isolated tasks
-Added library server auto-update with storage changes every 30 seconds
-Added hosted wireless network connection name “Nimitra” with password “fidelizer”
-Fixed JPLAYStreamer instability issue with startup procedures
-Fixed library server database clean-up to delete old artwork database too
-Improved default JPLAY settings for wider USB audio compatibility
-Improved sound device detection during system initialization
Nimitra will receive significant sound quality improvement by making full uses of quad core processor. Tasks will assigned to separated cores like this.
Core Audio / JPLAY / JPLAYStreamer / Asset uPNP
You will reach the next level of real sound performance with improved transparency and micro-detail extraction for default playback configuration. You can also access Nimitra directly with hosted WiFi network called Nimitra too so you can setup system without router which is very convenient.
Since this is a special occasion for Nimitra and Nikola products, you can purchase Nimitra and Nikola with the discounts as below.
Fidelizer Nimitra Computer Audio Server: US $1395 —> $1295 (Fidelizer customers will receive $50 additional discount)
Fidelizer Nikola Linear Power Supply: US $495 —> $445 (Fidelizer customers will receive $50 additional discount)
I hope this will be good chance for you to consider upgrading Fidelizer software. I’ll launch a new update soon after this campaign is over. 🙂

Since I was reviewing the SOtM sMS-200 Mini Network Player at the same time I was evaluating the Nikola, I decided to try this combination given that the 12 volt output was within spec for use with the sMS-200. After extended listening with the SOtM sMS-200 / Nikola, I felt that many of the sMS-200 owners will love this combination. The overall sound was smooth, detailed, and free of hardness. The bass and mid bass were extremely well controlled with good dynamic qualities. The soundstage was quite large with good depth and width. The overall transient speed and pitch definition were very impressive. Voices and instruments were very well focused and had a life-like presence with wonderful transparency to the sound. And yes, background silence was perceived as being excellent.
