Who's Enjoying the Pure Music App Besides Me??

I'm just stunned what this application does for my Itunes database. Much more detail, good tonal balance and great soundstaging. And I don't even have an expensive rig or outboard DAC. I'm usb cabled from my Mac Mini direct into an Outlaw RR2150 receiver that has a usb input. I lied, I am using my VonSchweikert DB99 loudspeakers and they're now getting some frequencies to crank again.

On a fairly brief listen, I seem to be finding v1.72a considerable more resolving, and with more like like timbre than 1.65, my last version. Anyone else having a similar experience?

Lots of value for the investment here, IMO, though I've not tried Amarra.

Pure Music people - What are the best settings/Pref for CD's I ripped to apple lossless? I have the Rega DAC that allows a pretty high sample rate. Do I change the PM settings to a higher sample rate? Or should you only do this with HD/Hi Rez files? Sorry, I'm new to the digital world!

No it is better to leave your DAC do this job, but in any case experiment and see what sounds best to you!

Lang76, I would not rip to Lossless but rather to AIFF, but if you are going to use Memory playback, it may not matter. Go to preferences and set to Hog. Also chose Memory playback. I only have one HD. I use a Weiss Dac202 which just switches to 176/24 when I chose it.
