Moving from CD Player to MAC Book Pro Music Server don't rely on a raid type of system to be fool proof. you still need to have a separate disk outside of your local/nas setup to be fault tolerant. i have been in the computer industry for over 30 years from mainframes down to pc's. even the compan... | |
Controlling iTunes on a MacMini from a MacBook screen sharing is just OK for this function, but i don't think you would like it after a while. i use my iphone to control my itunes and I get all the functionality of itunes. i would recommend looking on craigslist for a used ipod touch, setup a ... | |
Urgent - Totem speakers for Krell i have had many different totem speakers and still have the mani 2's, and the totem in-walls for my den. IMO, the mani 2's sound better than the prior version winds, and are much better than the forest and hawks if you have the right front end equ... | |

Apple TV music server question how do you like your digital lens? i use other jitter devices myself before an external dac. this solution sounds every bit as good or better than my dedicated classe cd player. | |
Apple TV music server question i use my apple tv's (along with airport express units) as distribution points for my mac server to stream music throughout the house. there is a difference though. from my iphone, i connect to the server and then tell the server to use the apple t... | |
Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows if you have a nice amp in the 200 watt area, try the totem mani 2's. | |
Moving from CD Player to MAC Book Pro Music Server you can get 4GB of ram for $30-$100 from fry's. all my macs have at least 4GB and it will make your applications run better if you have many apps executing at once. Drobo is a nice unit but a little pricey. Always backup to a separate drive from w... | |

How to Play iTunes Through My HiFi the dac 3 has a usb input but it is inferior to the other inputs. if you have a dac 2 already, get an airport express, a good jitter remover (monarchy, genesis, and others), and hook up the jitter device with a toslink from the AE or your macs tos... | |
CD transport vs streamer? i have been using a mac as a music server for quite some time now. hooking up a mac or apple tv or an AE straight to a dac does not do justice to the sound. it is much better than not using a dac but if you insert a jitter device between the mac a... | |
