In Reply to: is hooking up a laptop to my system even worth it? posted by bullethead on September 20, 2014 at 18:48:25:
I have my desktop connected to one of my systems via a long coaxial cable. From my desktop I can select my desktop speakers or the digital output which runs from my PC to the DAC in my system. So any app on the desktop can play via my audio system.This is just a regular desktop, not a audio specialist system, that came with realtek audio built in. It sounds really good FWIW and I don't have any need to change it.
But I have a second system and possibly multiple others where I don't want the computer to be any part of it. Connecting a formatted hard drive with my music collection on it seems ideal to me. I think I can do that with the Node.
My question to you is how do you control what comes out of the Chromecast and Node devices? Also can multiple node devices share a single hard drive? And lastly the Chromecast seems redundant, I'm assuming it is included because not all services are supported with the Node software?
