Consider instead a Linn or NAIM streamer along with purchase of a Synology or QNAP NAS. These are basically plug and play setup,their only gap is they don't do DSD yet and they should have better future resale than a music server.
Music server for a newbie
Hi
I'm considering adding a music server to my current digital+analog rig. I'm absolutely clueless with computers.I'm looking for a unit without dac as i have a dCS vivaldi dac.Budget is up to $6k.I'm not looking to build a computer but a looking for a finished plug and play product and esthetics is also a thing to consider (so no plain metal boxes).
I've heard both on Aurender s10 and Ripnas. Can anyone tell me whether he compared those units or any thoughts or recs on that issue ?
Thanks in advance to all repliers.
