(This is in opposite setup sequence to yours; 1st with Fidelizer then JPlay) I think there is a big difference between a "normal" PC with all Windows services on and an audio PC with a minimal Windows installation. In hibernate mode, screen shuts down and the PC only wakes up when music is finished, but I don't think it is the most important improvement. An audio PC is "concentraded" on only one task : "feeding" Devialet with a correct stream of bits and my opinion is that a well designed audio PC does it very well!

What you had described to me makes sense, but I believe it is slightly beyond my current understanding and capability in setting up such setup. I will have to brush up on this. In the meantime, I will just enjoy my music as I progressing along. If you have any write-up on how to setup a 2pc, dedicated audio pc, please share it with us. I'm very keen to learn and setup such system. Thanks, Sylvain.

However, BHE is a self-contained music player and cannot 'stream' from other music apps. And, it can only play via USB ASIO method. I would prefer an AIR option. Will explore more. -------- Update: It is possible to use AIR with JPlay. In BHE menu, select JPlay as output, and in JPlay select KS: Devialet AIR WAVE, you will be able to play music on BHE and output to Devialet via AIR. ==== I'm a bit overwhelmed now with so many options available and only 24-hours a day. And, Sylvain has get me interested in a dedicated audio PC setup.

I tried installing JPlay on trial, and it didn't do much to my setup, too. (This is in opposite setup sequence to yours; 1st with Fidelizer then JPlay) I first tried a dual PC setup with Jplay, using 2 "normal" PCs. I realized that a direct ethernet connection between 2 PC was MUCH faster than with a network using a router. Transfering files was as fast as a transfer with 2 hard disks on the same machine! I tried a direct ethernet connection between a PC and my Devialet, but I discovered the famous "White noise problem"! I was furious because Devialet company did not warn their customers, this problem was well known, many pages had already been written in this forum. I did not go further with Air, and today the white noise problem is not solved! In november 2014, I build an entirely new PC (it was not the first time, but things change quickly with computers). I choose an intel i5-4690S 3,2 GHz quadcore because of its low power consumption. I discovered I did not need a video card with this processor (it was new for me ). Motherboard is an Asus H97M-E, Corsair SSD hard drive 60 Go, DVD drive (to install Windows, now it's disconnected). The power supply was a Zen 400 fanless, recently I replaced it with a HDPLEX fanless linear power supply. I installed Windows 8.1 64 bit with minimal options. msconfig is useful to boot the audio PC with minimum services (less than 20). For Microsoft, msconfig is only a diagnostic tool to find the origin of problems, because they only consider the use of a "normal" PC. tusbaudiocpl.exe (Control Panel tool) and tusbaudiospy.exe (monitoring tool) are useful (see "Antoine's system" page 4) Jplay 6 was a big improvement (compared with version 5). If you have questions, don't hesitate, I will try to answer them!
