I have 9 systems at work connected via Plex Player and/or CCA. The Conference Room is the only room that does not have a dedicated sound system. The Mac Pro server is my conference room computer, and I keep it on 24/7. I connect via WiFi to various Apple TV and ChromeCasts for the other systems in the house.Īt work I have a 2009 Mac Pro with an internal 2 TB drive with my music library, also kept up-to-date and backed up via Dropbox. I have a TOSLINK direct connection to the receiver next to the laptop. The external is kept up-to-date and backed up via Dropbox. The MacBook is only used as a music server. I have an old Late 2009 MacBook with a 2 TB external drive containing my ripped CD library. (I don't do streaming web service like Pandora - but I could). Oh, and I can stream internet radio stations and services from my phone to an airport in the house - lot of flexibility. I can play albums, play artists, or build playlist and play them. Probably not worth going this route unless you already have some Mac computer gear - but, there is no monthly charge for any of it - its all stock out of the box mac software. I can control the iTunes server with an app called "Remote" on my iPhone to determine what gets played on the computer and gets streamed to the Airport units. One airport in the living room feeds optical out to an AudioAlchemy DAC to my Jolida amp and then to modded Heathkit (Altec Valencias) speakers.Īnother Airport is in my multimedia room - it feeds an integra HT preamp, a stack of B&K amps, and UREI studio monitors.Ī third Airport in our bedroom feeds a Philips receiver and a pair of M&K satellite speakers (got a cheap DAC on that one). I feed the whole house with Airports - an Airport tower up in my office transmits to the Airport Express units around the house. a 2TB drive in the macPro with 60k or so tracks of Lossless files, running iTunes under mojave 10.14.4.
