KDE Elisa Reviews

  1. Sadly one can not give ZERO stars

    Tried Elisa (v22.04.1) under Windows 10 and three mainstream Linux distros (on an i5 3.4GHz with 16GB RAM) and was shocked how slow and clunky the app was. Admitted, my library contains more than 70,600 titles but having to wait 8:30 minutes each time to open the album view, only to lose all that again when switching to an artist view (artist with ONE album, again 3:10 waiting) is absolutely pathetic. Under Linux the waiting was a little shorter, however the app soon started to confuse artist entries (clicking on an artist in the list sent you to some other artist three or four entries down the list). There is no excuse for such shoddy coding, even much older apps I tested can easily (and quickly) cope with my library without problems. Buggy, klunky software is the main reason I stay away from KDE and Elisa being their default KDE muslib app confirms my point of view, and then some.

    🏁 Competitors: Linux: Sayonara or Lollypop, Windows: MusicBee

    There's also Audirvana and if you have your music on a Plex server, Plexamp is a really nice player. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Tidal rewrote the PC program's playback, thoughts?
    TRY AUDIRVĀNA STUDIO. THEIR HIGH RESOLUTION DIGITAL AUDIO PLAYER INTEGRATES THE TIDAL LIBRARY WITH NUMEROUS USER CONTROL OPTIONS FOR MQA,UPSAMPLING, VOLUME LEVELING AND DAC - AUDIRVĀNA STUDIO. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Current status of Qobuz on Shield TV?
    · Audirvana: The best sound you can get from streaming (IMHO) includes Remote control software. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Media Player and Input
    Audirvana is simply "install-and-play-anything" kind of SW and even with native DAC in Macbook Air (early 2015), it sounds absolutly amazing. As I've said before, no real rival in terms of sound output quality. Trust me or try it yourself (they offer a free trial). Also, their motto is "Hear the Difference". :). Source: about 3 years ago
