Digital Disorientation


I have been a mid-fi guy my entire life.  My current system consists of PSB Image T6 floorstanders, NAD C375 BEE int amp, NAD C546BEE CDP, and "nice" speaker cables/ICs.  I have also accumulated ~400 CDs over the last 25 years.  I have been looking for a book/site that explains the digital world from file formats to DACs,music streamers/players, and setting up a proper system - basically the basics on digital music.  I would eventually like to migrate in that direction but need the information in order to make the right decisions.  Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

I found good information on this site. Its focus is on the technology and the "how to" rather than opinions.

Another site that is good but quite large is:

http://computeraudiophile.com

Plenty of opinions on computeraudiofile.com. Look for comments that say things like "I wish I had known that before I...." ;)

My best advice is: Rip your CDs to a lossless format and be a good steward of your digital music collection by keeping the metadata well-groomed. Let perfect be the enemy of good. (Don't let metadata grooming prevent you from enjoying your music.)
