Ready For Digital Source...Computer?
Only steaming online. No Roon either, been there, done that.
Honestly, (because I need a new computer anyway) I would really like to use a computer to play Spotify (hopefully CD-quality soon), Tidal, Qobuz, etc. but most say a computer is too "Noisy" to use for this purpose. Although, I have heard there are ways around this.
Rather than having to purchase a dedicated music server, does anyone know how to set up a computer as a high-quality music server? I can't really seem to find anything online.
Thanks

@high-amp If you don't necessarily want to spend a lot, consider a Raspberry Pi. https://darko.audio/tag/raspberry-pi/ |
hilde45 - will do! Much cheaper than Wolf! Thanks |
Yes but the wolf will sound better Our 432evo servers sound amazing They are also completely modular and fully upgradable You can take our 3500 starterStandard server and upgrade it all the way to our 16k Master The 7500 Aeon has been rated asthe Best sounding usb source Reviewer Ed Seally has heard https://topnewreview.com/432-evo-aeon-review/#:~:text=It%20delivers%20superb%20performance%20in,prac.... Used in the manner that 432 EVO intends, it’s also the best USB source I’ve tested to now and if I used one all the time, it would negate the presence of the SOtM I have in my setup as a head unit. Finally, the 432 software is capable of imparting genuine improvement to a wide selection of music and, on the occasions where the benefits are less clear cut, it’s easy enough to bypass. The Aeon shows that there are some intriguing further possibilities to audiophile storage and consequently it’s a device that will delight a great many listeners • OUR VERDICT10TOTAL SCORE432 EVO Aeon ReviewA fascinating addition to the ranks of audiophile storage that has unique benefits PROS
In 2TB form, the Innuos Zenith Mk3 (HFC 451) is cheaper than the Aeon and has its power supply on board, making it more elegant. The performance over network is broadly comparable. Via USB however, the Aeon has the edge. It delivers superb performance in bit-perfect mode and then has the option of its unique additional software. If you want the best means of feeding a single USB device going, the Aeon is the clear choice and doesn’t skimp on practicality at the price point.
