OK guys. Need your opinions on whether this will work? Need to carry more music, or more 24/96 FLAC files on the run :)

 

GoFlex Satellite™ Mobile Wireless Storage

http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/products/external/external-hard-drive/goflex-satellite

 

Suggested Sequence:

GoFlex --> Wi Fi --> iDevice --> CLAS/portable amp

 

FLAC Player for iDevices: only up to 24/96 though:

Thanks!!

How badly do you need that much more space? These days it's pretty easy to get a portable player with enough space to suit your needs...unless you enjoy carrying around your entire collection all the time....

Just be aware that while flacPlayer will indeed play 24/96 files the iDevice downsamples to 16/44 or 16/48 before sending the stream out to the clas. Only way to get higher signal out is with iPad to camera kit to usb dac

Well. I'm thinking of FLAC music which has a larger file size, plus lots of mkv movies for me and my child!! :)

That kind of seems like a lot of mkv movies, but to each his own!
