You would not use a Mac computer Waay to much noise with programs in the back ground , your active speakers No thanks far better quality sound from a dedicated amplifier , you want a great reference dac , and SS drive, and dedicated
Server . Plus the cables they use in studios are subpar vs good audio.
having owned a Audio store the quality they use in a studio especially cables ,
I tried using these name brand cables in Audio it just restricts the presentation .
for amplifiers,preamp Bricasti has been doing pro audio for 20 years and night and day better then any class D amp stuffed in a speaker Many Top studios use Bricasti also a vacuum tube mixing council like Manley much more natural and just like Tube amps used for guitarists they just sound more natural , All this is necessary if you want an analog type recording , many new pressing they are bright and just thrown together ,thsts why many older recordings had more life, Care went into the mixing , that’s just my observation ,and opinion .
