Mac with USB Dac

Sammie,

I agree 100% as I had a Opus 21 and it was replaced with a Mini and Wavelength Cosecant V3. I'll take the Mini / Cosecant ANY day.

Add my itouch as my remote and there really is no comparison.

Agree with above posts.Went to a Mini Mac/Bel Canto Dac3,best move in years,good luck,Bob

JT,

I've been thinking of getting an iTouch to use as a remote. Um, is the thing bluetooth, or does it connect to the wireless network in the home? I assume you can dial up music from anywhere in the house, provided you have Expresses scattered about. But will the iTouch wake the computer like the little white remote can? Oh, and always to read about someone else enjoying Gordon's products!

Thanks.

Sammie

It connects to the Mini. Yes, you can use it anywhere in the house...it's great!

Don't know if it will wake up the computer. I will try.

I think the iTouch is indeed an '802 device.....so range should NOT be an issue.
That is my next project....an Express with optical out to the DA of my CA840c player to the stereo via balanced. Saving allowance money even as I write. If I spend another penny on this hobby, my head will end up on a stick.

If it wakes up the computer, that would be sweet. Talk to one of the experts at the Apple store. They will know or will find out for your, or even arrange a demo.
