NEED HELP WITH A QUESTION
My system is lovely and I am very happy with its sound.
Krell 402e, BAT Rex preamp, Esoteric K-01 CD/SACD player, Revel Salon2 speakers, Stealth Indra and Siltech cables.
Here is the question: I want to be able to play music from a iPhone or a laptop, etc., for when I am entertaining and want a playlist or just a long selection of music. I don't want to have to play CD after CD. This is merely for listening with people over for dinner, cocktails, etc.
The sound from the system fills the house no problem. I know that the Esoteric has the ability to use its DAC with an external digital source.
What is the best/easiest way to solve the problem?
I don't want to make the switch to a server as my sole source. I also do not ncessarily need to listen to hi-res files only. There will be a mix of music from my phone, my daughter's phones, other phones, etc., plus I may want to build a couple of playlists on an iPad that are a bit more specific (jazz only, pop only, vocals only, etc.). Those playlists could be hi-res or not. But as I said before this is for non-critical listening.
Which pieces do I add to the system, what cables do I need?
