Cheers for the reply,
Leading to another question I am afraid:
Most of my music files will be of the lossless type.
I think I read somewhere that a 10M g router would be ok for MP3
files.
Would it be a good idea to go for the 54M g when using lossless files
?
Thanks

If it really is this system intensive it might be nice to be able to
schedule it to run in the middle of the

You can;

I agree, Mark. This bug used to be for adding flac conversion lines as well,

Stuart,
The line level outputs from an SB are sufficient to drive an AMP3
happily. The AMP3 has a single stereo input, so if you want to change
sources without unplugging then a passive selector or preamp will be
required.
If you use volume control on the SB then all you need is the AMP3, PSU

It will autodetect on the local subnet, but you can punch in a manual IP
