High-end audio is unashamedly expensive. Quality equipment from speakers, amplifiers to cables costs thousands of dollars. Music lovers pay these amounts to reproduce pure music without any form of distortion. This paper targets CD transports with a view to dramatically reduce its cost whilst improve its performance. By using a good quality PC costing ~$1,500 (including a good sound card), one can exceed performances of traditional transports in excess of $20,000. This is achieved by careful implementation of each PC component and the use of open source freeware such as Foobar2000 and EAC.
Complete setup of such a PC is explained. The reader is expected to have basic knowledge of PCs but expert knowledge is not needed. Building a computer transport can be daunting and discourages many music lovers from its take-up. This paper is a step by step guide to make the journey easier. |

Thanks sooo much for sharing!! I have always been intrigued that my PC seemed to sound pretty darn good considering the thousands I have invested in my dedicated audio system. WAY COOL!!
