As you will see, there are many approaches to achieve excellent sound. Fmak's use of a high quality sound card, dCS972/954, custom computer design is a first rate approach.I have gone in another direction. USB Dac powered by a computer 65 feet from the stereo system and all contolled with a pocket PC using NetRemote software.
I am presently using a Wavelength Cosecant DAC, but will be replacing this with a Wavelength Crimson when it becomes available.
Again, if you ask 10 folks on this forum what they think is best, you will get 10 different answers. Do a search and read what other people have discovered. Gordon Rankin and Steve Nugent will also be very informative in helping you to discover the "ultimate" system.
