Squeezebox touch, Apple TV or Apple Airport Expres


I'm interested in streaming music from my IMac to my stereo.

I have a Moon 100D Dac that I use with my Onkyo ND-S1 IPOD dock.

I would welcome suggestions. I understand that with the Apple products, I can use a optic cable into the DAC. But is the sound good?

I have read rave reviews about the Squeezebox Touch. Is it much better than the other products?

Thanks very much.

I've been streaming from an iMac using a Moon 100D with an Airport Express for eight months and the sound is exceptional. I've been so happy with it that I went to the Moon 300D using the same Airport Express.

I use a glass fiber optical cable from the Airport Express to the DAC, though that's probably the least critical component in the signal path.

I don't have any experience with the Squeezebox Touch, It has a lot of fans but I don't think you'd be disappointed with any of the Apple products. The Apple TV would give you other entertainment options but I haven't tried one yet and don't know how it compares sonically with the Airport Express.
