I’ve done both, PC and Music Server. You can achieve good sound either way. Personally I prefer not to be using a PC because I get sick of working with them and prefer to have an audio component. If you are uncomfortable however with paying “extra” for an Audio piece that at heart is a computer, I would just stick with a PC based system and optimize it
Music Server buying considerations
sorry if covered before
i use a small fanless pc into a usb isolation unit and then into a Chord Qutest DAC. I have a 4tb drive attached.
So.... is a music server really better? or just a overpriced pc? If better, what are key considerations when buying one? they all seem so overpriced to me. I would want one without a DAC in it. thoughts? recommendations?
thanks
