In Reply to: RE: Why even have a CD player? posted by MannyE on December 19, 2016 at 09:13:03
Because playing a CD is a simple process. I have no desire to run a computer system in my music room. Don't need it and don't want it. I have a nice tube based CD player that sounds wonderful. Works for me. I still play most of my music on a turntable.

Agree completely!
I use a purpose built streamer that lives behind my DAC (the tiny Sonore microRendu). Control is via an iPad and connects to the file server downstairs in the office via an ethernet cable.
I don't know how to tell you this but the Microrendu is a computer.

What the micro Rendu is not , however is a complete "computer system" with monitor, drives, noisy switching power supply and a far more complex kernel and inherent processing required for general use. It has an Ethernet input and USB output. Period.
There is a significant distinction in terms of its noise radiation footprint.
Do you understand?
Hey, that sounds like a great idea! ;-)
