newbie with basic question, please

Read over lots in this and the digital forum. I am interested in setting a server up for high quality playback. Can you please confirm that I am not missing some important piece of the puzzle, please?

1. Apple macbook or imac (w/remotes) - or another option = Apple TV + Itouch/remote software
2. External HD - would a wireless one work?
3. Dac/pre (e.g. benchmark) to amp - speakers

Would this seemingly simple system work, or am I missing something?

Thanks a bunch.

thanks.

Yes, cables are, indeed, implicit. As for the output, I assume Apples will work with a Benchmark DAC/Pre, but will check.

Thank you!

All in the same room - an home office, actually, with several computers.

Hard to know about the DAC/pre - I cannot find any near me to try, so it'll be a shot in the dark.
