Hi,
I’m moving – slowly – towards having all my music on my computer. Ultimately I’ll look to acquire the HRT Music Streamer and use this to feed in to my Rotel RA-04. It won’t be perfection but it should be pretty good I think.
I’ve read a lot about bit perfect, asio, foober, winamp and KS, but one further question occurs. If I wanted to store my music collection on a NAS, and stream it to the laptop – which will be connected to the DAC – via wireless N, could this affect the quality in any way?
I know streaming music over a wireless N network is more than feasible in terms of bandwidth, but I didn’t know if there would be any unseen pitfalls regarding reproduction at the laptop end of things etc. I’m hoping not because this would be a good solution for me, but then I hadn’t realised there were all the issues around bit perfect reproduction until I read around a bit either.
Interested in your thoughts.
Cheers.
