Is computer audio a bust?

PLEX media server and player appliations is a very good place for anyone to start with that is looking for good sounding computer audio without a major investment in a lot of proprietary hardware, like SOnos, BlueSound, or Squeezebox in the past.

Plus, PLEX is a high res MEDIA server, not just audio, so HD video, digital photography and hi res music streaming are all part of PLEX.

If anyone is interested, I am open to emails on teh topic. I have just started with PLEX recently as an experiment to replace Squeezebox eventually and have had a lot of success to date I can share, plus I am very interested in what other audiophiles might be doing with PLEX or anything else out there similar.

PLEX looks very interesting. I will give it a try and compare to MinimServer. I can see already PLEX offers some interesting features, just not sure I want to complicate things. I do like the simplicity of MinimServer.

PLEX is really very simple, at least the basic server and GUI apps are. Its still evolving very actively though, so I expect even better things soon down the road.

It can get a little tricky when you add in things like Casting, but that is a very nice capability once you get you arms around it.

For Macs, FIDELIA!

Sounds very good!

Can the PLEX server be run directly from a NAS like Synology? That is the big benefit of MinimServer in my set up.
