What can I do to improve my computer?
Levy03 --You're welcome :) And glad to learn there are others who've had successful results with Fidelizer!Ozzy -- I must say your case sounds weird - indeed unfortunate. Have you tried uninstalling everything related to Fidelizer, and then re-ins... 
Fidelizer
Ozzy --Did you download via the link('Download Fidelizer') at the bottom of the homepage referred to above to begin with? As is I'd recommend you uninstall all Fidelizer related files you've downloaded already(i.e.: what you've downloaded that you... 
Fidelizer
Ozzy --Via the link my first post refers to, go to the bottom of the page just below the 'Fidelizer 2.1' window illustration and click 'Download Fidelizer' - that's it. No scam, no collecting fees or whatever. 
Fidelizer
Davide256 -- I'm using the NuForce DAC-9, yes - the one that doesn't sport the asynchronous USB input that has since become standard with the DAC-9. However, it doesn't automatically follow that the USB input is the only way to go, although I did ... 
What can I do to improve my computer?
Jeffatus -- Download Fidelizer:http://www.windowsxlive.net/fidelizer/ 
Fidelizer
Davide256 -- All lossless WAV files played here, and via my quite transparent setup Fidelizer is certainly not a waste of time; it makes a very worthwhile difference with JRiver MC18, and that for free. I'll just go ahead and say it again: Fideliz... 
Peak Consult InCognito Grande
Perhaps Stereophile's review of the Peak Consult El Diablo's will shed some light on the general nature/level of sound you can expect from the InCognito Grande's:http://www.stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/507peak 
Peak Consult InCognito Grande
Nickodavidoff --I heard the Peak Consult InCognito Grande a couple times almost 10 years in the demo room of Peak Consult's "factory," or rather hand-assembly and developement/test facility in Denmark, where they are still home, and to the best of... 
why performance increase after pause?
Csontos --Instead of pausing the playback try leaving your listening room without pausing playback for the same amount of time(though not to other noisy environments), and then return to see if it has the same effect on you. I play music from a ha... 
What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam?
Csontos - Re-reading my post above I agree the differences are described in a way not corresponding the subtleties at play; however, the nature of these differences still holds - and are in fact audible to an extend that I find them worthwhile to ... 
What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam?
Dayglow --Perhaps you've come to this realization(or not) already, but one way to at least partially achieve your goal could be looking for powercords based on solid-core wires, believing them in general to entail many, if not all of your sought-a... 
How to "break-in" new speakers??
12-15-11: Transaudio...What DOES happen is changes in your ears day to day. Weather, humidity, your health, how tired you are, can play a huge role in sound "quality" (i.e. your personal perception of sound ). Also, your attitude makes a huge diff... 
DIY Speaker wire
I'm very much into (DIY) solid-core wires, in fact I use them exclusively throughout my setup as both power cables(16 awg copper, PE insulated, from the Danish equivalent to 'Home Depot'), speakers cables(Mundorf Silver/gold, ~16 awg, teflon insul... 
Use of isolation transformer
Timestretcher --Thanks for your reply. I'm thinking: why even presume the effect of any given isolation transformer automatically equates into what is always essentially "right," i.e. that is supported by actual lowering of distortion figures and ... 
Use of isolation transformer
UPDATE:I've eventually decided to remove the isolation transformer over my DAC(though the one over the HTPC remains). Over time, in the wake of this ISO trsf's initial inclusion and being properly configured(/wired), I (still) had the recurring, f...
