Ok, mp3 is ok for casual listening but sometimes I just want to sit on the sofa and enjoy some quality music which I have into FLAC, I know I could convert into AAC and play through iTunes but why should I bother when FLAC is a more compatible format than AAC but this is not the point, I use VOX to play FLAC through my MacBookAir but I have to attach a cable (some day will get a dedicated DAC to link music source to analog preamplifier) every time and have it hanging to the computer so I am looking at a way to stream music from a source to the preamp in a more stable way. Thought to use an old MacMini (a core 2 duo) to store music but then how do I get to the player without to be forced to use a keyboard (I don't want more cables running around, already too many, want to rather simplify things) or a mouse? I know, I might remotely use the Mini through, say, the Air through RemoteDesktop app or something like that but was just trying to figure it out if somebody found more functional solution to a similar problem.
The stereo system is next to the router (which is something I have to fix because I can tell that some RF goes through the cables and sparkles through the speakers once in a while), would it be possible to stream a FLAC through wifi the the router or through the AppleTV and then somehow to the preamp?
Grazie
