RE: Cost/price of a "generic" Audiostream Syrah-like server


Do I need Win10 *Pro*?

I'm thinking more generic and not so specific to duplicating the Syrah Server.

You can use whatever Windows you like, whatever flavor of Linux you like, and even Mac OS on a Mac if you like. There are some folks reporting stellar results with Windows Server 2012r2, others claiming Windows 8.1 to their liking, and others preferring Linux.

It's up to you and your personal preference with a DIY setup. No vendor 'lock-in' as with a a dedicated 'ready made' or 'audio appliance'.
