Here’s a new feedback today. He shared his feedback after setting up Roon Server with HQPlayer as below.
I have set up the system yesterday for roon server and hqplayer, it’s sounding better than running a Linux os or Roon Rock. More richness in the mid and more airy in the treble.
I’m happy to see feedback with comparison to Linux OS which some people asked for sometimes and happy listening. 🙂
Here’s another feedback today. I received his feedback after delivering Fidelizer Pro license upgrade from Plus version as below.
Hello Keetakawee, first of all I wanted to thank you for the correctness and availability you have shown by solving my little mess –
I installed the Fidelizer PRO today and it is Ok set on PLAYER – I did some listening and I actually noticed a major silence compared to the PLUS – for the connection to the DAC I still have a Wireworld Starlight USB cable and the iFI purifier 2Good music …… always
I’m happy to hear that Fidelizer Pro can bring major silence as improvements from Plus version and happy listening. 🙂
Here’s a new feedback today. He sent me his feedback after delivering Fidelizer Pro for his new computer as below.
Thank you very much. Recently placed new motherboard, ssds, cpu and ram (i9 12900k, Asus Z690 Pro Gaming D4, Western Digital Sn850 Nvme 7000, Kingston Fury Beast DDR4) and can hear some improvement, sound became deeper basswise. Still Fidelizer is a cherry on top to hear everything selectively, increase a soundstage and tame distortions, getting nice results especially with dsd’s on purist level for audio player build (offline). Super convenient for installing and uninstalling these audio settings as I use this pc for other work (non audio) too.
Best wishes
I’m glad to hear that setting up Fidelizer Pro is super convenient and can effectively tame distortion and improve soundstage. 🙂

Here’s a new feedback today. He sent me his feedback after promising to share his feedback on Plus version upgrade as below.
Hi Keetakawee,
Back as promised. Your proggy works flawlessly. Smooth as can be. The free version is a good product in its own right, but this is well above it. I am a happy bunny. This was money well spent. And a great transaction experience to boot. Thanks mate, keep up the good work!
Eddie
I’m happy to hear that he finds Fidelizer Plus version making significant improvements over free version and happy listening. 🙂
