High Fidelity Pure Audio, occasionally abbreviated as HFPA or BD-A, is a marketing initiative, spearheaded by Sony Music and Universal Music Group, for audio-only Blu-ray optical discs.[2] Launched in 2013[3] as a potential successor to the compact disc (CD), it has been compared with DVD-Audio and SACD, which had similar aims.[4][2]

HFPA is encoded as 24-bit/96 kHz or 24-bit/192 kHz linear PCM ("high-resolution audio"), optionally losslessly compressed with Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio.[1]

HFPA discs are compatible with existing Blu-ray players.[5]

Pure Audio Blu-ray refers to a different initiative (but with some goals in common) launched by msm-studios in Germany in 2009.[4]

As of November 2019, Deutsche Grammophon is the most prolific publisher on the format, with Beethoven 250 having three Blu-ray audio discs.

History

Origins and Development

The decline of Super Audio CD (SACD) and DVD-Audio in the post-2000s era stemmed primarily from their limited consumer adoption, exacerbated by a format war between the competing standards that fragmented the market and deterred widespread support from record labels. SACD, introduced by Sony and Philips in 1999, and DVD-Audio, launched by the DVD Forum in 2000, both promised superior audio quality through high-resolution formats and multichannel capabilities, but they struggled against the entrenched popularity of standard stereo CDs and the rising convenience of digital downloads via platforms like iTunes. Additionally, stringent copy protection measures in both formats, such as SACD's restrictions on digital outputs to prevent piracy, alienated users by limiting playback flexibility on existing hardware, further hindering adoption amid broader industry concerns over music piracy in the early 2000s. In response to these challenges, (UMG) and Entertainment spearheaded an initiative in 2011 to revive by adapting Blu-ray technology for audio-only discs, aiming to create a more accessible format for audiophiles. The concept emerged from discussions between UMG executive Olivier Robert-Murphy and Laurent Villaume of the France, driven by frustrations over the degradation of audio quality from uncompressed sources to compressed MP3s and the lessons learned from the format wars of SACD and . Key motivations included leveraging the existing global infrastructure of Blu-ray players—already in millions of homes—to deliver lossless, high-bitrate audio without the need for video content, thereby appealing directly to dedicated listeners while avoiding the compatibility issues that plagued prior formats. The effort quickly expanded through collaborative partnerships, with joining UMG and to form the High Fidelity Pure Audio (HFPA) Industry Group, alongside technical support from the to ensure compatibility with standard Blu-ray hardware. Independent studios such as and also participated to facilitate mastering and production. During 2012, early prototypes and testing phases focused on optimizing multi-channel and high-bitrate audio delivery, culminating in a in that with initial releases like ' GRRR!.

Technical Specifications

Audio Encoding and Resolution

High Fidelity Pure Audio (HFPA) utilizes uncompressed linear pulse code modulation (PCM) as its primary audio encoding format, supporting resolutions up to 24-bit depth and 192 kHz sample rates to deliver high-resolution audio beyond standard CD quality. This encoding allows for a theoretical dynamic range of 144 dB in 24-bit audio, though practical implementations achieve approximately 120 dB, capturing subtle nuances in recordings without introducing quantization noise. Most HFPA releases adhere to a standard of 24-bit/96 kHz, providing enhanced frequency response and detail for genres like rock and pop, while select classical recordings extend to 24-bit/192 kHz to preserve the full spectrum of orchestral dynamics. In addition to uncompressed PCM, HFPA supports lossless compression via and codecs, which reduce file sizes while retaining identical audio fidelity to the original master without any generational loss upon decoding. These codecs enable efficient storage on Blu-ray discs while maintaining the full bit-perfect quality, ensuring no data degradation during playback. The format's lossless nature benefits multi-channel configurations, supporting stereo (2.0) mixes as the core offering, alongside for immersive experiences in select releases, and up to 7.1 channels in later variants incorporating for enhanced spatial audio. HFPA discs feature a streamlined Blu-ray system for track information and basic navigation, which can be accessed via without video output for a purely audio-focused playback . Supplementary materials such as album artwork and digital (e.g., production credits and recording details) are typically provided via an included download voucher rather than on-disc visuals, ensuring derived from the original mastering sessions.

Disc Format and Structure

High Fidelity Pure Audio (HFPA) discs adhere to the BD-ROM standard utilized in Blu-ray technology, employing single-layer configurations with a 25 GB capacity or dual-layer variants offering 50 GB for audio-exclusive content. This design dedicates the entire storage to high-resolution audio tracks without incorporating video elements, enabling extended playback durations—up to over seven hours on a dual-layer disc—while supporting multiple audio configurations like stereo and . The disc structure emphasizes simplicity and audio focus, featuring no video tracks and a streamlined system for among audio playlists and track selection. Users access content via , with the menu navigable blindly without video output. Additionally, discs include a for downloadable hi-res (24-bit/96 kHz), versions of the album, and PDF /artwork, enhancing the experience without relying on on-disc visual elements. The supported audio codecs include lossless formats such as LPCM, , and . HFPA discs incorporate region coding that is typically absent or set to region-free status to promote worldwide compatibility, though certain releases conform to conventional Blu-ray regions A, B, or C. For content security, they employ AACS encryption identical to that on video Blu-ray discs, providing robust digital rights management, with select titles utilizing BD+ for further anti-piracy enhancements. Packaging for these audio-only releases often mirrors compact disc aesthetics, using jewel cases or digipaks emblazoned with the "HFPA" logo to clearly distinguish them from video-oriented Blu-ray products and evoke familiarity for traditional music consumers.

For optimal playback, users should select players supporting output to preserve the original 24-bit/96 kHz or 24-bit/192 kHz resolution, as analog or digital outputs like optical/ may downsample protected content to 48 kHz. Audiophile-grade Blu-ray players, such as those from (e.g., BDP-105) or (e.g., UD7007), are particularly well-suited for HFPA due to their high-quality internal DACs, balanced analog outputs, and robust support for uncompressed multi-channel audio. These dedicated audio players minimize digital processing artifacts and provide superior compared to standard video-focused models. Early adopters encountered occasional compatibility hurdles with certain players, such as older models lacking full HD Master Audio decoding, which could result in playback failures or downsampling; firmware updates addressed some of these issues where available. AV receivers and external DACs compatible with HFPA require HDMI 1.4 or later ports to enable bitstream passthrough of lossless audio up to 192 kHz/24-bit, ensuring no conversion or loss of fidelity during transmission. Receivers from brands like Denon or Yamaha that support multi-channel HDMI audio decoding are ideal for HFPA's stereo or 5.1 surround mixes, allowing direct connection from the player for pure digital handling before analog conversion. For enhanced purity, setups incorporating external DACs with HDMI inputs can bypass the receiver's processing, though such devices were limited in availability during HFPA's initial launch. To fully realize HFPA's high-fidelity potential, hi-fi speaker systems and amplifiers with balanced XLR inputs are recommended, particularly for multi-channel playback, as they reduce noise and maintain from the player's analog outputs. High-quality, certified cables are essential accessories to prevent and signal degradation over longer runs, ensuring stable delivery of high-bandwidth audio data.

Software and Player Support

High Fidelity Pure Audio (HFPA) discs require compatible software for playback and management, with support centered on PC environments capable of handling Blu-ray decryption and high-resolution audio decoding. JRiver Media Center provides robust playback for HFPA Blu-ray discs, supporting uncompressed PCM audio up to 24-bit/192 kHz and multichannel configurations via HDMI output. CyberLink PowerDVD offers similar functionality as a dedicated Blu-ray player, enabling bit-accurate reproduction of HFPA's lossless tracks without video interference. VLC Media Player, when equipped with Blu-ray plugins like libbluray, can handle ripped HFPA audio files in formats such as FLAC, though direct disc access often necessitates prior decryption. For extracting audio from HFPA discs, ripping tools bypass the AACS to create personal archives in lossless formats like . MakeMKV decrypts the Blu-ray structure into MKV files, from which audio can be isolated using additional utilities for high-fidelity preservation. DVDFab Blu-ray Ripper streamlines this process by directly converting HFPA tracks to or other uncompressed files, maintaining original resolution. While these methods facilitate personal backups, circumventing AACS violates the (DMCA) in the United States, rendering even non-commercial illegal; licensing terms explicitly prohibit any distribution of extracted content. Mobile and streaming options for HFPA remain constrained due to its physical Blu-ray foundation, with no official apps for disc playback. Converted audio files from rips can be managed on third-party tools like , which supports high-resolution playback on PCs and aids in file conversion workflows. Equivalent mobile high-res players handle these files, but integration with streaming services is absent, limiting portability to offline converted libraries. Post-2013 firmware updates from manufacturers such as enhanced Blu-ray player compatibility with HFPA, resolving early playback glitches on models like the Sony BDP profiles to ensure seamless audio decoding.
