Pure Vinyl/Amarra

Wow Beth, can you not read that I stated more info and greater depth of soundstage for PV? Amarra is to much $$$.

This in not unknown factors to me.

Having a bad day? Must be the Cosmos is not in line.

Bored Elizabeth?

Amarra and Pure Vinyl/Pure Music are software players that integrate with iTunes and offer upgraded sonics and functionality. If you haven't tried one, I highly recommend it.

Hi Elizabeth, It's software for computers. Handles the digital signals better than native MAC OS for example. Also offers bit rate conversions etc...

If I get a mac, I'll get one of these to go with my digital front end...

Yes, Pure Music and Amarra seem to be the main competitors for audiophile music playback programs. There have been numerous readilysearchable threads on these products, and I bet the names are familiar to a majority of audiogoners who are working on computer audio.

Just goes to show, one person's obvious is another's obscure.

FWIW, PM seems to generate detectable sonic improvement over iTunes (that's the music program that comes with MAC computers!) in my system, and (IMO) represents a bargain at 80 bucks. But I have found the version I use (I think 1.03) to be twitchy, and prone to freezing and the like. Anyone have better luck with more recent versions?
