Mac with USB Dac

Anyone regret selling their CDP and going with a Mac and USB Dac?

What are the sonic benefits with a Mac/dac vs. a CDP?

I am looking at the RWA dac with a Mac. to replace my Lector T3 MK3 CDP.

I now have a Mac Mini with a Wavelength Audio DAC. Do I miss the Opus? Not for a second! Does the computer/DAC combo sound better? I think so. And, as Eric mentioned, the convenience is really a treat.

I'll take the Mini / Cosecant ANY day. Add my itouch as my remote and there really is no comparison.

Um, is the thing bluetooth, or does it connect to the wireless network in the home? I assume you can dial up music from anywhere in the house, provided you have Expresses scattered about. But will the iTouch wake the computer like the little white remote can? Oh, and always to read about someone else enjoying Gordon's products! Thanks.
