"It seems like getting computer source perfect and beat hi end cd player is problematic and cumbersome"
No more problematic than choosing the right stylus, turntable, cables and phono preamp, and then adjusting the turntable. This is simpler I think. Manufacturers of computer audio equipment usually provide recommendations, instructions and even some software. Find a simple way to get this from a turntable manufacturer.
"Still.... I believe the power supply in a computer is not clean enough for hi end use"
These are myths. Has little or no effect on it if you use the right technology, either async USB, Firewire or networked audio.
