Hi all,
I just got the info I needed from the Summit-Fi forum on equipment. Now I just need to set up my Macbook Air and PC to stream to my dac.
I have a few questions if someone can invest the time in helping me get the very best audio:
1- Is a Macbook Air powerfull enough to play high res files to a dac?
2- What software should I use to play files on PC and Mac?
3- what kind of files are considered the best? And where to get them? I have an HD tracks account....
4- Any recommendations on starter tracks to explore the potential of my new system?
My goal here is to try and get as close to actually be in the recording studio. My set up is a Woo Audio W5LE, Woo Audio DAC, Focal Utopias, and the PC and Macbook Air.
