AIR 3 beta for Windows

Not sure where the saying came from but think of the one place you don't want to be kicked.

Gonads.

Not a chant from footie fans etc. but as mentioned before a very sensitive area of a mans body.

Wow, never expected to be discussing such things on an audio forum.

Air has been just that painfull for many members.   And as mdconnelly reports still producing the white noise from hell.

I have been using AIR3 for Windows since it came out now an yes I have been struck by the lightning of white noise twice but it only happened when I was fiddeling around with the computer (once when starting Fidelizer and once when I change settings in AIR3) so in my system it workes ok as long as I dont do anyting with the settings on the computer. Normall surfing and use of the computer has not caused any problem. I have used AIR for around 12h every day and any kind of resolution from FLAC 16/44.1 to 24/192 and DSD 64 over DoP via Roon. Everything is connected with ethernet.

I know some will think this is not ok that you still get withe noise but as I only encontered it when doing settings in the computer I will proceed and use AIR3 as my main way to get music to my Devialet.

So I have decided to build a NUC 6i5SYH with 8GB RAM and M.2 SSD for Windows 10, Fidelizer, Roon server and AIR3. Perhaps a second 2.5" disk for the music and just run the NAS as a backup.
