My experience with drives in fanless enclosures is they get very hot, to

they've somehow overcome that, but I remain sceptial on that front.
Anyone have any real-world experience copying large volumes

Thanks for that, I think I've decided what I'll be buying my parents
for Christmas - an SB3/Aego-M/QNAP combo. Come to think of it I'd
better get a network cable for them also to enable copying of flac onto
the QNAP. To connect a QNAP directly to PC,

Now being the owner of a set of A5s and a set of Aego Ms (with two SB3s)
I have to say that I do find that the Aego M suit me more in a room
where less power/oomph is needed. The A5s are a lot punchier IMO, as
pablolie suggests.
Only thing I MAY consider for when we have parties is a separate
Out of curiosity, how does the hard drive do in the QNAP, seeing as it

In my opinion the AE5 deliver on the higher resolution musical
experience - the Aego M's are great, but while they deliver on good and
balanced (when bass is set to 1) sound, they don't deliver as much
spacial resolution as the AE5s. Good to know as I contemplated

A TS-109 would in my view be hopelessly underpowered unless you had a

Depends what you are after with a NAS. For me, and it seems many
others, the QNAP TS109 Pro works fine. I wanted a quiet system, with

I have the Audioengine A5s. Excellent speakers. They are in a large
kitchen though and give plenty of sound. I'd likely consider the Aego
Ms for smaller rooms though. I have to say I'm just not that keen on
2.1 sets.

I've recently invested in my now loved SB3. Needless to say it's
