Re: [slim] Sound quality difference CD player vs SB3 FLAC playback?

2008-04-13 Thread Limitless

I have my SB going direct to my Denon AVP5000 pre-amp via Wireworld
Super Nova 5+ toslink cable. The cable is a high end (polished ends)
fiber optic cable, this sounds best to me. Better than the digital coax
out of the SB to my pcs' (XiFi Elite Pro) sound card. I have what's
considered gourmet ears so I hear the differences in just about every
cable made.I sometimes
listen to DIFM Chillout when I get home from work at five a.m. so I
wear
headphones thru the digital coax from pc, as always this way is a
little tight, quick transients, shrill highs, all instruments are very
close together. It sounds good at first but I get ear fatigue fast. The
Super Nova 5+ direct to the pre-amp then out the POA5000 via Transparent
Audio
Music Plus inter connects, then out to speakers using Wireworld
Equinox
speaker cables to Sony SS-LA500EDs and the sub thru Wireworld sub cable
to Energy 12 250 watt powered subwoofer. The SB thru this method sounds
much better and since I added the Wireworld Super Nova 5+ cable the
instruments in the soundstage have a more wide open spatialness with
what sounds like a more realistic placement of where each instrument
actually was in the recording, especially true with orchestra
recordings. I'm saving for the 
tube modded transporter as this is being written. I'll probably change
out my inter connects to a wireworld product soon as well

 You don't connect anything between the PC and the NAS. Both the PC and
 the NAS would be connected to your router using Ethernet cable.
 
 If you have to do any configuration of the NAS then it would usually be
 done with a browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox.
 
 The NAS would appear under My Network Places when using Windows
 Explorer.
 
 If you only have 1 PC, then a NAS might be overkill for you - another
 USB attached drive might be a better option.

Can I use my LaCie external hardrive to staore my music from
Squeezebox? I have the triple connection interface. 800/400/usb
