Thanks.
What I am looking for is a consumer unit like the Squeezebox but
without the built in DAC. Any idea how the sound quality of WAV over
wireless ethernet with S/PDIF into my Arcam DAC would compare to my
Arcam CD Transport. One concern I have is how well the clock in the DAC
will synchronise with the clock in the unit, the Arcam units have a
connection between them to overcome this issue.
Cheers
The Barix box will do the 10/100 to digital SPDIF conversion without
having to convert down to analogue.
FWIW we once set up a 2.4 Ghz video transmitter with external
directional aerials over a Two mile path and use the Vision inputs to
carry SPDIF which is the same level and impedance and approx. bandwidth
as a video signal, and that worked very well indeed unless there was
interference present which happened from time to time but essentially it
was bits in and bitz out
