Eventually I will have all my music on a hard drive, and use an apple laptop with hard drive connected to my preamp for playback.
Is is this configuration possibly hooked up by rca's ???

AIFF vs Apple Lossless Ripping
The best for you, IMHO, would be laptop with asynchronous USB D/A converter. Do some research. One inexpensive example might be Oppo HA-2 asynch USB headphone amp with line out, based on ESS Sabre 32-bit (wonderful sound), but you might like something less portable or better, if you're willing to spend more money (Oppo HA-2 is $300). Connectors on the Oppo are 1/8" https://www.oppodigital.com/headphone-amplifier-ha-2/ |
