Devialet 200/Firmware 7.1.1/AIR 2.1.2
2011 MacBook Air running latest Mavericks
No iTunes - just direct to Audivarna Plus 1.5.12 (trial version). If I use iTunes instead of Audivarna, it was 11.3.1. VLC was 2.1.5.
VLC/iTunes both sounded poorer to me than Audivarna. This is with Bit Perfect & 24/96 set on AIR in all cases.
Rufus,
I'm intrigued that you say that Audirvana+ working with AIR sounds a lot better than AIR on its own and I'm very keen to try it out. Please can you let me know what settings you use with Audirvana+ to get it to work with AIR? I think someone already posted this but I can't find the post.
Thanks,
Philip
