Hello All, I don't post very often, but have had some good advice in the past when looking to upgrade my system, so I'm hoping that I can pick your collective brains again... I'm looking to rip the majority of my CD collection to a lossless format and am looking for a simple way to connect my laptop to my hifi to make the most of this and the numerous downloads that have until now been confined to my iPod. Quality of sound is of great importance I'm also looking to upgrade my laptop into the bargain. My initial thoughts are to get a Macbook pro with a 750gb hard drive and an Arcam rDac (perhaps with the option of wireless via a dongle). What I would like to know is, will this proposed combination give me a sound roughly equal to my CD player (Yamaha CD-S2000), and are there any other bits of kit that I should be considering for the same money? Currently I have a ageing Toshiba with a knackered disc drive which will soon need replacing. The other end of the system is a Yamaha a-S2000 amp with ATC SCM11 speakers. Any and all advice gratefully accepted, as I find the various possible combinations utterly confusing! Oh, and I would also like to take advantage of high resolution downloads, so any suggestions should be able to handle those too.
