internet radio through main system

[zoot45]

Being 67 and not very computer audio savvy...I enjoy internet radio through my main system. I use a Asus XP netbook for radio... Quicksilver 90 watt monos, Quicksilver pre, MF M1 A dac. Wouldn't think a better computer can improve sound of internet radio through main? Also, what should I use to store stations and remotely change stations.

 

Thanks

zoot,

 

I am only a few years behind you, and I use iTunes (on a Mac, but it'll work on a PC too) to find, store, and play internet radio stations.

 

Just make up a playlist and drag your stations into it for storage. You will need some kind of mobile device to control iTunes remotely.

 

Internet radio is compressed for streaming, so I don't think it would strain your netbook for sound quality.
