Has anyone ever built an all in one solution with a hard drive?
I mean, basically like a computer as source, but just the parts needed for audio. All it would need to have is a hard drive, a dac, an amp and some kind of control interface. Obviously, ou would need some way of getting the files from the hard drive to the dac, but this can't be that tough. I have seen home made mp3 players before.
Does anyone have any designs, or desire to design something like this? I think it could be fun. (Unfortunately, I do not have the training, knowledge or time to design this project.)
Just a thought.
