Best way

Heuer,

Well if you use a MAC as the basis for the system the results will be the best.

You can use a PC and iTunes but you have to also use Foobar, kernel streaming and the MultiPlugin for iTunes Windows. This does bypass the KMIXER but with all that going on getting and dedicating a mac to the system is your best bet.

There are many cards that would work with say a MAC Pro. I would make sure the card works with PCI Express. But really the Mac Pro maybe an over kill for what you want too do.

A better suggestion would be a Mac Book or Mac Book Pro and an external firewire drive for storage and some external USB or Firewire dacs. I make several as others do. Do watch out that there are true USB dacs and those that convert to SPDIF and do the same old thing.

If you have any questions just send me an email.

Thanks
Gordon
