A testimonial from a user on Stereonet
Sound quality with SnakeOil is addictive. Gone are any treble nasties and bass bloat, noise-floor is very low, and the sound signature is one of ‘smooth transparency’. The timbre of acoustic instruments is very natural—piano, trumpet etc are reproduced with a harmonic fullness unequalled by any other streaming methods I’ve tried. This ‘smooth transparency’ is perhaps a little homogenous in comparison to my Windows Server 2019 / AudiophileOptimizer / Audirvana UPnP setup—which is a little more resolving, but with SnakeOil you’re immersed in the music. The experience is very pleasing.
Certainly I found it superior to Euphony and AudioLinux.
