Since I got Air going I haven't tried anything other than Air/iTunes to stream from my Mac.
Before Air I used (effectively) a firewire to AES convertor and had Audirvana, Amarra, Bit Perfect, Decibel, Fidelia and Pure Vinyl. I haven't used any of them since 2011 so all my copies are out of date.
I have bought a Chord Hugo for travelling use and it is capable of decoding most file types. Amarra was my favourite software back then but it does seem to make some hidden changes to preference files, or some such, which upsets Air, and I like to be able to use Air on my Macbook Pro from time to time.
So my question is, does anybody have a suggestion for a player capable of natively rendering all file types including flac, alac, aiff and DSD which I can use on my Mac which won't upset the smooth functioning of Air?
