... and it's called XXHighEnd (http://www.phasure.com/index.php). There is a free demo version available for download. But it's not the easier or most intuitive player to configure/use (I'd be happy to guide anyone through the setup process though).
It really only comes into it's own with Vista, where it can use Exclusive Mode and WASAPI. I'd avoid using it if you have XP... or intend to use it with Apple's Boot Camp.
I can't put my finger on it, but it just sounds more 'alive' than say Foobar with ASIO/WASAPI.
Yes, 'bits are bits' for sure. I can get both Foobar and XXHE to output bit-perfect HDCD signals. But they sound different! Most people would say that there is then just one other variable that can come into play - timing...
