Upon dropping it into my Applications directory and launching it, I was prompted to migrate import* my library. I entered my registration key on the website and was given the new version. Installation of the update went smoothly enough. I have two in the house, and Audirvana is a great solution for sending my playlists and library content to them, without having to use the less capable interface Volumio provides.

My other major use is streaming to my Hifiberry equipped Raspberry Pis running Volumio. I like my signals unadulterated by my signal path. I don’t use any of the upsampling or signal processing options available – and there are several to choose from. I will say straight away that I don’t think you’ll notice any change in sound quality. Listening through a Topping DX7s DAC/AMP with Adam A7X monitor speakers and Hifiman HE4XX headphones.

Audirvana (the “Plus” seems to have been dropped from the moniker) has so much new in it, I’m surprised the author didn’t give it a brand new 4.0 badge.
#Audirvana review 2019 mac os#
I’ll be testing the MacOS version on my still functioning 2012 Mac Pro running Mac OS version 10.13. With a completely overhauled UI and a new Windows version to go along with it, there’s a lot of new code in here. I’ve been using it exclusively for listening to my local collection of music on my computers for nigh 4 years now and I love it. This weekend I took the plunge and sought out the newest version of Audirvana, my preferred, nay, favorite audio playback software.
