Channel D's 'Pure Music' and other trials

Just a quick update to state that I've downloaded the trial version of Channel D's 'pure music' player to see whether or not it has an effect and is distinguishable from either iTunes or Decibel. The answer so far seems to be Yes, if only in the context of an increased sense of ease and musicality. My wife, sat outside in the kitchen, just called out to me 'Who is that singing? It's beautiful' - Eva Cassidy of course.

I will keep testing just to remove that expectation bias and the influence of other changes I have wrought - all at the same time due to time pressures, rather than carefully changing and testing in sequence I'm afraid - including some new silver wired interconnects, and the removal and re-addition of a number of mains plug 'clamps' from either Russ Andrews or another manufacturer. The former is another entirely positive move, the latter is something over which I'm still undecided; I'm struggling to tell the difference.

So: whilst Pure Music is working well compared to iTunes, I've yet to test it against Decibel.
