The Geek is like a man standing outside a fine restaurant staring through the window at the people inside enjoying their meals. He won’t go in. Instead he stands at the door asking everyone going in or out if they know the recipes and the ingredients of the food served there. Of course, they would look at him with incredulity and say the food is excellent, who cares about the recipes. If I want a good meal I will come here to eat.
An excerpt from JB’s memoir’s. “I remember as a young man working with my good buddy Al Gore to invent the internet. I said to him, you know, one day people are going to stream music on this internet thing we are inventing. So we need to get this right.”
C’mon man. We are mostly Audio Applications Specialists, AAS’s on these forums, not telecommunications equipment designers. You are on the wrong forum if you are looking for design details of the equipment. Should have figured that out by now. Just get yourself a decent audio grade network switch and some good quality ethernet cables and enjoy the music. The proof is in the pudding- not how it was made.
