Fidelizer 8.7 released – Added “Audirvana” modern application launch support with media player application improvements

 in News

 

Fidelizer Pro

 

Despite tight schedule, I always find time to maintain updates over time and design solutions for Audirvana software. Now you can launch Audirvana from Fidelizer with core isolation policy applied for further tweaks.

This is possible by mapping Audirvana executable file with smart detection algorithm I develop to convert to shell execution from explorer and this feature works with other modern apps like Skype too.

I also implemented applying media player launch options to all running instances so startup instances like Roon/JRiver can receive media player application tweaks along with selected application too.

Some bugs like 3rd option not working at all in Free/Plus version. I also moved application launch to perform after optimizations with wait time option so other processes won’t get mixed in optimizations.

 

Changelog for version 8.7

Free
-Added modern application launch support for Audirvana by selecting executable file
-Added optimizing all instances of media player application for modern and startup processes
-Added Wait Time option to launch media player applications with adjustable delay between apps
-Fixed bug where the third media player application won’t run
-Moved media player application launch to perform after finishing optimizations
-Optimized optimization sequence to reduce over all optimizations

Plus

-Added optimizing all instances of media player application for modern and startup processes

Upgrade: Fidelizer Upgrade Program

 

Fidelizer Plus/Pro users should be received a mail about update and download link by now. If you somehow didn’t receive an update notification as I received some delivery failure message too, please contact me for an update with your customer data to verify.

 

I always say not using media player application won’t lose Fidelizer core optimizations but being able to run from Fidelizer feels more assuring, right? I hope this will be good a present for you guys and Merry Christmas. 🙂

EtherStream Network Switch receives Positive Feedback Writers’ Choice 2020 Award

 in Review

 

Positive Feedback Writers' Choice Award 2020 for Fidelizer EtherStream Network Switch

 

Last year I launched EtherStream Network Switch due to some unforeseen events as originally personal mod being appreciated by Nimitra clients. It was a really pleasant surprise that modified switch was sold for almost 200 units now.

Last week I received an email notification about EtherStream receiving Positive Feedback Writers’ Choice Award. More than getting the first reward for EtherStream, I’m happy to see audiophiles are taking network improvements seriously in this year.

Elimination of noise from your playback really helps you sit up and listen closely to the music! With optical streaming, I really thought I was about as close as I could possibly get to the musical truth, but with the EtherStream—the overall sound quality is shockingly close. In fact, so much so, that all of my recent thoughts with regards to going all optical have now completely changed—the EtherStream is giving me probably 95 percent (or better) of the clarity and transparency that I was getting through the optical experience. Seriously, it’s virtually a wash! When compared to the NetGear switch that typically resides in my system, the EtherStream delivers a sound that’s not only deathly quiet, but punchier in character, with deeper, more defined bass and a significantly more liquid midrange. Fidelizer has done it again, and the EtherStream is very highly recommended!

This year Covid-19 hits hard on everyone. I hope you guys will remain safe with your family and enjoy the music during quarantine. You can read full article about Positive Feedback Writers’ Choice 2020 Awards and see other cool products too.

And don’t forget to check out the first and the second review of EtherStream Network Switch product. It may sound a bit weird to have two reviews but you can learn more from both perspectives from different systems. 🙂

Introducing Classic series of Nimitra and Nikola, the most affordable highend audio products

 in News

After successful launch of Nimitra and Nikola Signature lineup, I gained a lot of experience and knowledge about building affordable products with better price performance ratio. After a lot of design and listening tests, Classic series of Nimitra and Nikola is finally ready.

The original Nimitra and Nikola have some limitations on pricing and they reached maturity in Signature series later. Classic series has improvements and corrections on original design for 2 years optimizing to get the most from Signature series.

 

Nimitra Classic - computer audio server

 

Nimitra Classic provides full support of Roon Core and Roon Ready with many other features such as DLNA/uPNP, OpenHome (Linn/Lumin), HQPlayer NAA, Airplay, and Squeezebox ready to be used with same optimizations as Signature version with only hardware changes as below.

-Same software features and optimizations as Signature version
-Cost most effective solution for sound quality / features / services
-Compact 1.5mm aluminum thickness chassis for small space
-Cost effective motherboard design with high precision event timer
-Trusted industrial quality components with high reliability

Since audiophile network switch is becoming standards in 2020, WiFi module will not be installed by default for better sound quality. You can choose to install WiFi module if you want to. I can still setup JPLAY and others as optional requests also.

 

Nikola Classic - linear power supply

 

Nikola Classic shares the same circuit design as original Nikola. It has some parts changed and adjusted to deliver better price performance ratio with high synergy to perform well in any system musically with some changes as below.

-Same circuitry design as original Nikola
-Regulator tuned for high synergy musical performance
-Compact 1.5mm Aluminum chassis for small space
-Audiophile grade capacitors used in some flagship products
-16 AWG teflon insulated copper internal wiring

I managed to find better cost effective parts with some design changes to bring the better performing products at more affordable price. Nikola Classic will be an ideal linear power supply solution for EtherStream and many other products with linear power supply too.

 

The price of Nimitra Classic is $995 USD and price of Nikola Classic is $395 USD. All Nimitra and Nikola products will have free shipping during introductory period until 31st October 2020 with 30-day money back guaranteed.

You can also purchase Nimitra and Nikola Classic series with EtherStream with free shipping and 2 outputs termination at $1785 USD. This combination is even more affordable than Nimitra Signature server and I hope this will help making highend audio more affordable.
