All things apple tv


I thought I'd start a new thread focused on the apple tv. I chose the apple tv primarily for it's nice interface and simplicity of use. The mac mini is obviously far more customizable however requires a keyboard and mouse.

My 30gb model is about to get a new 250 gb hard drive from techrestore.com. My biggest issue with apple tv is the inactive usb port. Ideally I would like to send music to the dac using this port. It appears this may be possible by hacking the unit and installing the full version of osx.

Does anyone know of a simpler way to do this?

I just got mine the other day too. So far so good. I imported a few new CD's today and as each one was ripped into iTunes each song was synced onto the Apple TV.

I am using the digital optical out to send a signal out to my DAC.
What DAC to use with these to get the most out of the audio? I am thinking about deleting my disc player if the playback is good enough. Go with just this as the digital front along with a turntable??

DAC suggestions??
