I second the PC based storage idea. I am also interested in the Perfect Wave Transport and Perfect Wave DAC from PS Audio. They use outboard hard drives to store music. The PWT stores the CD in RAM so there is no jitter and uses I2s over HDMI to transmit the raw digital data to the DAC. The system will also play downloaded high quality DVD music discs. They are backordered at this time but they still have a trade in deal at up to $1000 off for a limited time.
Best way to save cd collection?
Need advice on how to save my cd collection to a lossless format and play on my stereo system. Can someone give me a very, very simple explanation of what equipment and/or software I need? Keep in mind that I'm computer challenged. I have an iPod and would consider buying a DAC and Wadia docking station. Would also consider buying a laptop computer if necessary and "streaming" the music to my sytem. My goal is a simple, inexpensive approach that doesn't compromise the quality of the music. Have I mentioned that I'm computer challenged??
