"""A much better solution would be to use the PS Audio DAC with its built in network card and stream using ethernet. """"

The PSAudio Bridge sounds like poop. I can only assume you have never tried it and compared it to the USB. If this is true, you are sounding like a brochure warrior, just saying. All you would have to do is peruse the PSAudio forum to know the Bridge sounds like crap.

""But with the DSD DAC built in network card you don’t even need a dedicated streamer. ""

I do if I want it to sound better than the bridge and besides DSD files sound better. I only use Qobuz to demo albums and then I purchase DSD.

""It and the PS Audio DAC would need to be on the same network."""

Ok, check, thank you.

Thank you @subterranean6

Best software to rip CDs to Mac (Mini)

""Years ago I used iTunes to rip CDs to my Mac Mini in AIFF format. What’s the latest and the greatest for this?

Now, I know what you guys are thinking, but in defense of @Audphile1 , if he is listening to CD’s, then yes, absolutely, PSAudios Bridge will sound fantastic and streaming will be the "best", but scrap the bridge and play DSD through Audirvana, bypassing Mac processing through a good USB and the sound will shock even the learned ears of Audiphile1.
