thanks for the info, and will go with the digital out. I was reading some of the other post about which computer setup (power) is best as a server.
Upstairs: I have a P4 2.8 gighz with 2gig of ram and 2 80gigHD connected to my network via wireless card Downstairs: P3 800mhz with 1gig of ram 2 20gigHD hardwire to the router The P3 system runs the Slim server flawlessly adding music and navagation vis softsqueeze. The P4 system has never fully ran the server (adding songs) or even work to playback music via softsqueeze. I've reinstall the server 4-5 time with the same or worst results. I keep all of my music on the P4 system on the 2nd drive, and the way things are going I may need to move all of my file over to the slower system. I guess my question is it better to have your server hardwire and send out the signal wireless to the SB3. -- Recoveryone SqueezeBox 3 (comming soon) Netgear Mp101 analog connected Pioneer Elite VSX-81TX Pioneer Elite DV-45A Pioneer Elite M53 CD Pioneer M66R Cassette ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Recoveryone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9205 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31076 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
