Pure Vinyl/Amarra

I bought Pure Vinyl after having the demo Amarra for the last 90 days.

To my ears PV just does more for me. More depth of soundstage and more info. Amarra is just to much $$$.

Any thoughts on the two.

Amarra 2.0 and Pure Music 1.6 have a similar tonal balance. Pure Music gets my sonic nod due to memory playback and Hog. Amarra 2.1 will have memory playback. The differences in sound between the two programs my diminish. But functionally, the programs are quite different.

Splaskin, I agree with you. Memory playback and Hog-bypass is money....

I am using a Meridian 861 v6.

After more experimentation I got PM closer to Amarra but ended up purchasing Amarra Mini.

I'm experimenting with both Pure Music and Amarra. One thing I have noticed is that PM maintains a gapless album perfectly - no annoying breaks between tracks. Amarra, on the other hand, seems to put just a very brief break in between "gapless" tracks. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, not sure. In PM, the gapless tracks are all loaded into memory before playing. I'll see if Amarra maybe does the same.

One source of irritation I have with PM (which I purchased) is that after being on for a while it will stop playing after a given track. Using my Iphone as a remote, I then have to click play on the next track. Is anyone else having this issue?
