I've been listening to various internet radio stations that I've placed inside different playlists and I'm starting to have a problem. The problem is that the radio station plays great for about an hour or so, then it tends to stop/dropout and come back in. And once this starts happening, it beco

Well, you can't really "load the slimserver software" as it is embedded on the OS image that Infrant provides. When there is an upgrade in slimserver, you have to wait for Infrant to build their version of it and then update your NAS. You can't run nightly builds or run plug-ins that aren't suppor

And if you have a CD player with optical/coaxial digital out, connect it to the digital input of the Transporter, as the Transporter's DACs will likely be a lot better. Perhaps a digital television receiver too (satellite, digital cable box, TiVo). I'm not sure if you should connect a DVD player

If you're "just" interested in high-end stereo, than a Transporter could be combined with a Stereo Amplifier with balanced inputs. This could, as above mentioned, be a one-piece Integrated Amplifier - or it could be a Pre-amplifier + Power Amplifier (one Stereo amp or two Mono-blocks). Then two go
