Jud Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Is there a free media player that play back DSD files without converting them? Windows or Mac? On Windows I believe Foobar with a helper/plugin or two will do it. Mac, can't think of one right now, but maybe someone else will. One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. - Einstein Computer, Audirvana -> optical Ethernet to Fitlet3 -> Fibbr Alpha Optical USB -> iFi NEO iDSD DAC -> Apollon Audio 1ET400A Mini (Purifi based) -> Vandersteen 3A Signature.

Iain Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 You can do that with foobar once you set it up to do that.

sedest Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 You can build a portable version of foobar, customized this specific installation with all needed plug-ins, zip the resulting installation folder and send it to your friend. No further configuration needed. Link to comment

firedog Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I didn't get any warnings and it isntalled fine. Unfortunately I get no sound when it plays back files. And I did change the output driver to the proper one for my setup. Not a problem with any other software.

kaufenpreis Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 In order to play back DSD files, you'll also need media player software that can handle it. No, iTunes and Windows Media Player don't (on their own). Here's a list of DSD compatible media players. DSD Media Player Software For PC Users: Signalyst HQPlayer ($172) Foobar2000 (free) JPlay (99EUR) J River Media Center ($49.98) Teac HR Audio Player (free) for use with the Teac UD-501 DAC For Mac Users: Audirvana Plus ($74) Channel D Pure Music ($129) J River Media Center ($49.98) Teac HR Audio Player (free) for use with the Teac UD-501 DAC hi Link to comment
Sam Lord Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Oops, you forgot that HQPlayer works for Mac, even the latest 10.10.5 el Cap OS. Mac Mini 2012 with 2.3 GHz i5 CPU and 16GB RAM running newest OS10.9x and Signalyst HQ Player software (occasionally JRMC), ethernet to Cisco SG100-08 GigE switch, ethernet to SOtM SMS100 Miniserver in audio room, sending via short 1/2 meter AQ Cinnamon USB to Oppo 105D, feeding balanced outputs to 2x Bel Canto S300 amps which vertically biamp ATC SCM20SL speakers, 2x Velodyne DD12+ subs. Each side is mounted vertically on 3-tiered Sound Anchor ADJ2 stands: ATC (top), amp (middle), sub (bottom), Mogami, Koala, Nordost, Mosaic cables, split at the preamp outputs with splitters. All transducers are thoroughly and lovingly time aligned for the listening position. Link to comment
