Lost my job a couple of weeks ago, so we are moving to where there's more opportunity in my field. Unfortunately our new living situation has no space for my system and wall sharing neighbors that wouldn't appreciate it anyway. So everything is boxed up now and will stay that way for at least 9 months. All future listening will be via my Apple TV, Benchmark headphone amp, and AKG headphones. I'm really missing my system already. It's going to be a painful transition.
Hi Jax,
Sorry to hear about your job situation, hope things pick up for you.
I noticed on your bio you run Apple Tv and I was wondering if I can ask some noddy questions as I am considering a purchase? Do you use it to WiFi stream your Itunes content or Ethernet? If WiFi, what is the sound quality and streaming performance like? My plan would include a DAC but perhaps not straight away.
For info, I am looking to pipe in my music from our ITunes library (which I'm happy with) which is on a Pc in a different room to my Hifi. I'd like to be able to control the ITunes library for music selection when streaming rather than bring the Pc into the living room. Also, Apple Tv appeals as it has an UI through your Tv so you can easily see whats going on from the comfort of the sofa rather than getting up all the time to squint at a small display.
So, how do you find it? Any pearls of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Nick
You should think about a Sonos system. I have three zones and really do find it to be great.
