New DAC not streaming hi res files
I not 100% but I'm don't think coax goes up that high, you may have to try USB 
Can a 75 ohm digital rca cable be used in place of a regular rca interconnect?
There was a time when I use to use a Nordost RCA Valhalla cable as a digital cable and it seem to work fine at the time. At least until I was able to save up for a real digital cable.  
What's the deal?
I wish Audiogon would do something about it, it's gotten out of hand. 
MAC to DAC connectivity
Well whatever you do, you can not run USB cable longer than 10 feet   
NEED HELP WITH DAC UPGRADE
I have the BDP-1 as well and just purchase the Ayre Codex about 3 weeks ago to replace my BDA-1 and it's  definitely an improvement all around more detailed, soundstages  more open and imaging is more pin point. Also works very well with my new Fo... 
Cary SLP-05 pre + Krell 302e/402e sound? Should I consider a different power amp?
 I don't believe Krell recommends using tube pre amps with there amps.  
Best Vintage Dac??

I just purchase the Elears as well, but went with Ayre Codex for the DAC.  Only a week breakin so far, but I do like what I'm hearing.

Servers: Are we there yet?
 The problem with that autoloader is you have to monitor the metadata tags  and make sure cover art is correct.  Unfortunately the best way to do that is one at a time by hand.   
Servers: Are we there yet?
But Matt if you are not on the internet cover art and to remote to a iPad, iPhone or any  Smart phone is out the picture  and what's the point in that,  that's like going backwards.  I mean the whole idea of a screamer or server is to pick two son... 
MAC Book Pro Computer vs Aurender N100h vs Aurender N10 Music Servers
I have heard none of them, but have been looking at all three of Aurender's models on Audio Advisor on paper I like the N10 the best. And if I was in the market for one, that would be on the top of my list. It looks to me like a very well made and... 
Best DAC
You may want to look into the Bryston BDA-3 which just came out. It has all the inputs you would ever need, I have the BDA-1 and to my ears it sounds pretty   good. In fact I have the BDA-3 on order. It should  arrive the end of this month. I'm ju... 
Pass labs xa30.8 vs Krell evo 402e
I had the Dyns C2s with ML 432 amp. (400wpc) And they do need lots of power to sound right. For me most times I was finding myself turning up the volume all the time. Don't get me wrong great speaker just power hungry.
