Sammie,

good grief that's a lot of TB's! Do you have the fmaily movie collection on that thing?No, I'm a visual artist. All my art is stored on there. Here is a
link to my galleries.
the weak link in your system is the AE. Even with DAC, it is not going to sound nearly as good as a computer hardwired to the DAC...at least based on my trials.Are you 100% sure? You have done careful blind A:B comparisons?
My suggestion would be to put your laptop on your rack hardwired to the Benchmark... The laptop can be controlled using FrontrowI may try some tests with it set up that way. I like the idea of simplicity, and what I have drawn is complex, but if it is all digital, and the data is transferred correctly, where will the loss occur?
Also, as it seems money is not a significant limiter, ditch the Benchmark and step up to a better DAC.Do you know of any DAC that has better specs?
