Thank you. So bluesound is basically storage and management of the music files, but the mytek does all of the decoding?
Can one skip the dedicated DAC and just go direct into a receiver's optical in from bluesound? The mytek's pretty far out of my budget.
What do you need to do instead of reripping?
I probably should re-rip all my CDs to flac anyway and create compressed files as needed for my ipod. The tags are a mess and I've yet to find a tagging tool that isn't totally junk. I've tried picard, tuneup, and a few others. I have a ton of compilations and loads of really old MP3's. The apps crash at anything over a 1000 files, which makes for a lot of manual work to feed them in. Although I might look for a service to do them in bulk. I have a lot of cds!
THx again
