Streaming Audio is Trying My Newbie Patience. Help
I'm awaiting a response from an Amarra tech person and will report results. I am quite pleased with the improvement Amarra makes to the files I can play through it, but streaming is a priority, and the main reason I purchased the program. 
Streaming Audio is Trying My Newbie Patience. Help
When streaming radio, I cannot toggle Amarra back and forth by clicking on the button so that audio is running through Amarra, not iTunes. The button always remains yellow no matter how many times I click on it. It does not matter in what sequence... 
What speakers for 10k?
With respect, and I truly mean that, why not spend perhaps 5K and take an extended vacation with the rest of the money? Some of my most rewarding moments listening to music at home, were decades ago, played through a pair of Magnepan MG1's powered... 
You know you're an audiophile if--
You keep wondering if, indeed, you really ARE an audiophile, and if so, what precisely does that mean?

Preamp w/ Single Line Input. But I have DAC and CDP
Just ordered a SYS from Schiit. It's a passive device which will enable me to switch back and forth between CDP and iTunes. I'll be good to go, in a few days. :) 
Preamp w/ Single Line Input. But I have DAC and CDP
Thank you all for the great info and suggestions.I just determined that the digital output board in the DAC is indeed malfunctioning intermittently. No point in having it repaired. It'd be less expensive to get a basic switching box and use the DA... 
My DAC no longer working using digital inputs
I've got a couple of issues.I've finally determined that the digital input board on the DacMagic is malfunctioning intermittently. That's why the CDP has been cutting in and out. The USB board continues to work OK, so I can listen to iTunes. I don...

Enhancing online radio station sound options
I'm a complete newbie to computer audio but so far have found the sound from my Macbook iTunes into a Cambridge Audio DacMagic more than eminently listenable. I also am using a trial of Amarra 3.0.3 but cannot hear any difference whether Amarra is... 
Preamp w/ Single Line Input. But I have DAC and CDP
Thanks again, Mesch.I've located the problem. I unplugged everything from the CDP, the computer, and the Cambridge Audio DacMagic. Then I reconnected the coax cable from the CDP to the DAC. I noticed that the digital inputs on the DacMagic do not ...

Hgeifman:Thanks for your comments. I double-checked and Amarra 3.03 is running with iTunes.I've been thinking about the issue of my pre-amp having but one set of line inputs and I think I'm better off plugging and unplugging the DAC and CDP depend...
