Can I Improve Sound--Macbook Pro as Music Server?


My system:

NAD M2 (amp/dac)
Audiphilleo2 spdif to usb converter
Macbook Pro (2012) /Furutech Formula 2 USB cable
Itunes- Tried Puremusic demo and thought it was actually less impressive than Itunes
Speakers: Mirage OMD 28

Files are all on the Macbook Pro- don't have an outboard drive yet

Recently switched to ripping in AIFF after starting off with AAC

My system sound lacks a little in weight / clarity/ resolution

What can I do do beef up / clear up the sound with my Macbook Pro?

What about the optional power supply for Audiophilleo2?

Thanks

Simplest thing for you will be to get the "audio Optimization Guide" from iTunes iBooks for your Mac OS. Search on iTunes iBooks. This has step-by-step details on how to kill unnecessary applications.

You can swap out the hard drive for a SSD by using instructions from otherworldcomputing.com
