@yyzsantabarbara Yes, I'd say server is right up there with dac in importance. I'd rather have decent dac with quality server vs. general purpose computer with better dac. But really both need to be on general par to one another for best performance. Optical conversion is far better served to upgrade after dac and server optimized.

The Occasional Podcast host Brian Hunter is joined by digital designer and Innous Director Nuno Vitorin.
In more analog mindset, does it make as much sense to evaluate a separate music server in the same terms as one might consider a cartridge to a turntable? In addition to thinking about the why, Nuno discusses much of the how – including where to get started and what to look for.
The discussion starts at the very beginning of source material. Listen, learn and hopefully adapt your way to a better listening experience.
