Somewhere hidden in the hifi rack (when you don`t need that cd ripping), next to the USB DAC for having a short USB-connection. I guess I will buy this Shuttle thingy http://www.shuttle.eu/products/slim/xs35v3l/overview/ , adding some RAM and a small spare 30 GB SSD.
I was using the EDO app for April/May last year. At first for giving out 176.4 and 192kHz via the coax output. Then for streaming DoP to an USB DAC. The advantage (to me) of Daphile opposite to the SBT with the EDO app is that hotplugging between the USB DAC and such a Daphile system (I like to use my SBT as a clock in standby mode), furthermore the DSD128 playback (of course, that's the absolute niche) and especially the on-the-fly converting from DSD files to DoP. So you don`t need to create these DoP files before anymore. I think that' s helpful also for the backup. Daphile is to me a kind of "in-between" server. All the music remains on the NAS of course, far away from the hifi rack :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Holzohr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55329 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99132 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
