| iTunes star ratings, play count, playlist info I love the xServe RAID. It has been up and running for over 40 days now. It mounts instantly, and is more than fast enough for any uses I have. I use it for graphics files, audio, and general storage. It seems to be very well built. I bought the f... | |
| Airport Express connection to Coaxial DAC Nparbat, I gave you mis-information. The Airport Express does indeed have analog and digital out, but to connect to your DAC, you have to use the optical, since the only DIGITAL output is optical. The mini 3.5 jack is analog. Apple uses the same p... | |
| Airport Express connection to Coaxial DAC The Airport Express has both analog and digital optical out. If your DAC takes standard RCA type inputs, you can connect to the Airport Express via an RCA to 3.5 mm mini phone plug adapter. Available from Ram Electronics: http://www.ramelectronics... | |
| DAC for AirportExpress around $1k? The airport express has an optical digital out. You can plug either an analog cable or a digital optical cable in the same port. | |
| DAC for AirportExpress around $1k? You might try the Apogee MiniDAC. It is about $1,000 and can take the optical feed from the Airport Express. I used it extensively and it sounds absolutely beautiful, although it would drop the USB connection occasionally. In my experience, if don... | |
| iTunes star ratings, play count, playlist info O.K. so it sounds like I transferred the iTunes library incorrectly. How do I do it correctly? | |
| Networked Media Player. Edesilva, Just out of curiosity, what are you using for your 1Tb of disk storage, (and backup)? I have been having tremendous problems with the LaCie Terrabyte disk. | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac Dshea_32665, I have set up two nearly identical systems. One I set up for my friend, the other is mine. The only difference is that I am using the Waveterminal, and he has the Edirol UA-25. Since the systems are set up miles apart, I cannot give y... | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac I have listened to the McIntosh MDA1000 DAC. The MDA1000 is a bit "smoother" sounding than the Apogee MiniDAC. I love the way both DACs sound, but if I had to pick one to listen to for extended periods, it would be the MDA1000. The MDA1000 also up... | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac I have a friend who switched from the Transit to a Waveterminal. He is using a powerbook and a MSB DAC. playing Apple Lossless files. After switching to the Waveterminal he said "So that's what the music is supposed to sound like, it's like unfogg... | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac Right now I have two systems set up. One with the MiniDAC, the other with an Edirol UA-25. They both sound fantastic. Both are fed by Apple computers playing Apple Lossless files through iTunes. We thought the Transit sounded great until we compar... | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac Steve, I tried the Transit on two separate Apple systems myself, and had several friends come to the same conclusion on different systems. My tests were on a Powermac dual 1.42 G4 to the Transit, then in to a Monarchy DIP/DAC. Also a Powerbook G4 ... | |
| DACs: Airport Express vs waveterminal vs mini-dac I have been doing research on this as well. The only way I could figure to get the information is to start throwing money at the situation. So far I have used the the Monarchy Dip/DAC, Edirol UA-25 feeding a Mcintosh MDA1000, the M-Audio Transit, ... | |
| Advice on Setting Up A Laptop-Based Audio System? I have only compared the MiniDAC to a Monarchy DIP and Monarchy M22c DAC. It was really hard to compare, because I only had one pair of cables, so it would take me 5 minutes to switch between DACs. No obvious difference that jumped out at me. I ta... | |
| Advice on Setting Up A Laptop-Based Audio System? I am currently using an Apogee MiniDAC, and I love it. The MiniDAC does require an external power supply, which might be a consideration for an iBook user. I have had a few problems with the unit dropping the USB connection. Apogee said that it is... |
