My old computer died and took all my music files with it so I am basically having to start over. I am going to be getting some type of low price win10 pc to store and stream the audio, then either via usb to a dac and then headphone amp or perhaps get an integrated dac/amp setup. One change I want to make in the new system is I want it to be at least capable of doing DSD. I'd like to at least try it and then either use it a lot or not at all depending on how it works out. Most likely just reserve it for a few albums I really really like. The main two things I'd like to know is with regards to the computer, is there anything I should look out for and avoid at all costs? Are there any features or specific things that will make or break a good music server? Secondly as I am not at all familiar with DSD Dacs, are there any suggestions as to some good ones to look for? I have been hearing a lot of good things about the Chord Mojo. Right now that is what I am going to be looking at first.
