Sorry, a bit related but a bit off base.
If there is anyone using their computer to stream high quality (44, 96, 192
khz) audio from their computer to home audio, I would like to pick your brains.
I want to bypass use of CDs and move to computer based storage/playback of
ripped CDs and high-res downloads via either a hi-res sound card at 96 or 192,
or use a DAC.
Looking at Exact Audio Copy, J River etc. sort of base for playing.
Since I have the gear from the Flex and a good sound card, I'd like to
multi-purpose and extend the build.
Thanks. We can mail direct via:

We use a Logitech Squeezebox Touch to get sound from a computer to our
stereo system (we use the WiFi connection, but it can also use a wired
network connection). It worked running the Logitech Media Server
software on the Flex Windows7 machine, but now I run the server software
on my FreeNAS machine.
BUT Logitech has recently discontinued its Squeezebox line and replaced
it by the Smart Radio, which is mono only. Logitech has said it plans to
continue supporting existing Squeezebox products, so buying a closeout
Squeezebox Touch (which is a stereo device) might be an option.
Note that the Squeezebox line (and I assume the Smart Radio also) works
with Internet Radio as well, so you can listen to local (not SW) radio
broadcasts from all over the world.
