New Forum for Computer Based Music

[PJPro]

I often find it difficult to decide where to post/search threads which are related to PC audio, DACs, NAS, ripping software, audio playback software, DNLA, etc, etc, etc.

I would like to see a new independent forum added to the forums page. However, I've had a little difficulty coming up with a suitable name. How about "Audiophile Sources"? ;-)

Good call. And another one for useless cable arguments.

I'll add it to the list for the Forum upgrade

As ever, thanks for considering my proposal.

Brilliant. And I get the honour of the first post!

Any chance of getting the forum higher up the list.

Actually, given that has only been 71 viewing of this thread (to date 01/09/2008), perhaps my view isn't shared by the wider forum population?

As a side note: it might be worth posting a sticky thread in each forum covering what one would expect to see in that forum. Or is this another of my silly ideas (remember the request for a glossary on terms like transparent)?

Don't worry I'm sure it'll get used plenty. I plan to start one on users DAC reviews for a start when I can find time to write a review on my DAC's. Plenty of people come on here asking for advice on how best to play computer audio and I think this will give them a better place to start.

So that's two of us.....it's a start!

Well you're keeping it going fine on your own already PJ.......

Done a juggle and moved it up a bit.

sounds like an excellent idea to me!

Andrew - you didn't fancy the "Audiophile Sources" as a forum title then?

I guess it all depends to what extent people actually use this forum rather than simply taking a guess and bunging stuff in Hifi, Home Cinema, MP3/MP4 and a like.

i guess, i'm planning on adding nas and a squeezebox to my set-up soon, so will definately need some question answering.once i've looked into it a bit more

I'll be keeping an eye on this. I like the idea of a music library on a HDD that's easily accessible. Just not decided on exactly the best way to do it yet from a technology perspective. As always with me cost will be a key driver.
