Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Ethernet HD Music Server

bwb: Hi. What I meant by "circuit-board-like was a home-made type of thing as opposed to the $5k - $15k type ethernet DACS that are out there such as the Linn. I entered the realm of circuit-board DACS the first of which cost me nothing the second of which cost $65 from China.

So I am hoping to find a diy-type ethernet server to get the HD sound files I have into my DAC and thus into my stereo.

As far as I know the Mac Mini doesn't have a toslink output. I spent an hour in the local Apple store trying to concoct the required set up and they concluded they didn't have anything. We explored their new Thunderbolt interface, and found a 3rd party thunderbolt/toslink peripheral but the Whizard (or whatever they are called) couldn't say for sure I could do what I wanted to do.
