Mac Mini


I am using the Mac Mini as a music server and was wondering what others are useing as an isolation platform.

Does it even matter what it is sitting on?

Oh, here's a picture of a clock: http://www.tentlabs.com/Products/cdupgrade/xo2xo3/index.html

Reducing the vibration of this clock is going to result in less jitter? It's a circuit board.
I'm using HRS Nimbus pucks (3), under my Mini and I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt that I could care less. I just use them because I have them. It seems that air vents are at the bottom so I used the HRS pucks to lift the Mini off of the shelf a little bit. I'll bet that if given a true blind listening test none of you will be able to tell a difference. If you can, then you have some sort of superhuman hearing. I think your only "telling" a difference because you want to justify spending the extra $ on something you didn't need to.
The Tentlabs clocks are great, if you install this clock in youre CD player, you will never want to sell youre CD player again.

Curious about a Mac mini as a server - are a key board and monitor required?  Need some guidance please.
@miner42 - only for set-up as I understand it. You run it ’headless’ and depending on software, you operate it with a wifi remote control, e.g. Audnirvana, a software program designed for Mac computers (but now apparently on the verge of releasing a Windows version), runs on the Mac and you ’talk’ to it, control selections, etc. via a remote app that can be installed on an iPad.
I’m not sure how relevant the Mac Mini is at this point. I’m still researching how I go about building a music server. (Building may be too ambitious a word, i don’t possess any great technical skills). But, apparently, the switching power supply should be changed out to permit a linear supply to be attached-- though there are kits that aren’t terribly expensive for the conversion and there are some modestly priced supplies, a better linear supply can cost a little money.
I still like the idea of something made from computer components rather than an all in one "audiophile" server. The gamers and Linux people seem to know how to source the parts to build pretty robust CPUs. That said, I gather the Mac Mini was a great starting point at one time.
