"Is computer Audio a Bust?"
Is this a serious question?? If so, the one asking is grossly uninformed and/or naive. Computer audio, when properly executed, is well established as a superior source compared to anything but a mega $$ CDP. Well done vinyl is still the best, but requires far more investment and involvement. The convenience of computer audio is inarguable. Done well, it is fantastic.
I have owned 5 different DAC's over the last 10 years, and still own 3 of them, the best one still in use in my 2nd system. My main system is served by a Lumin A-1 music server with NAS, instead of choosing vinyl much of the time!
Rather than a bust, computer audio IS the way of the future!
