Audio_ELF Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 NAS would most likely still be required...right? Yes for the file storage; unless you add internal drives as Chris suggested. Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience... While I agree "Everything may matter" working out what actually affects the sound is a trickier thing. And I agree "Trust your ears" but equally don't allow them to fool you - trust them with a bit of skepticism. keep your mind open... But mind your brain doesn't fall out. Link to comment
Audio_ELF Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 congratulations for the new C.A.P.S. v4 Pipeline. I have a question on the case: I already have a case streacom model FC 5 WS. Can I use this to build the server?thanks You should be able to use the FC5WS case - you'd need to check the heat pipes can be adapted. One limitation is that there is only a single slot accessible in the FC5WS. Others can express an opinion but I'm unsure if there would be any advantage in "upgrading" to the CAPSv4 Pipeline if you currently have a Zuma. Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience...

Audio_ELF Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 To get SPDIF you are probably better suited adding a USB to SPDIF converter. http://www.computeraudiophile.com/f6-dac-digital-analog-conversion/what-are-new-asynch-universal-serial-bus-industry-standard-cables-connectors-and-communications-protocols-between-computers-and-electronic-devices-converter-contenders-2014-a-22459/ may be helpful. If you insist on an internal card RME HDSOe AIO card is one option and ESi Juli@ XT another. Eloise Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience...

Audio_ELF Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Good ones, and not to forget the golden oldie, the Lynx card. I was thinking the AES16e wasn't very appropriate ... but I see there is a new Lynx E22 which would be perfect (in terms of functionality). Eloise Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience...
