Connecting a remote server to a high end system

I run a network 24/7. I would like to store my music on my server. Is there a device I could buy to receive the music over a wireless connection. I have a separate Mark Levinson DAC if that would help. I am an old network guy so the network part is solid. I guess I can run cat6 if the wireless won't work. My wife would also like a remote station in the kitchen. What replaced the old Logitek squeeze box?

agree with swampkiller, logitech transporer. can stream high rez and has excellent user interface (new version just released this week). details can be seen at the slimdevices site.
(disclosure: i do have a new unit listed for sale)

If I buy one of these for the big system what do I use for the kitchen? I only want one copy of the music on the server. I don't want to spend that much for the kitchen. The kitchen needs to be small, not lots of components. How would the overall system work and be configured? I wanted one of the original Logitech Squeeze boxes and speakers from a few years ago. They had a demo version in Fry’s which I tried to buy for over a year with no luck.

check the products tab at slimdevices site. there are different versions of the squeezebox (which i would recommend for the kitchen system) and all can be controlled with one remote. the files can be stored wherever you like but just one copy needed. hope this helps, good luck with your system...
