| New Apple TV -- Anyone planning on it? Are you using it with a DAC? If so, which one? I am thinking of using either PS Audio III or Cambridge DacMagic. | |
| Comparable product to Logitech Transporter? I guess the new Apple TV would work as well, plus you can control it with an iPhone or iPad. Apple website says it supports "Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV" but not FLAC. I wonder how big a disadvantage that would be. |
