thoughts / advice ?

Setting up a USB DAC system

I haven't been using my stereo much for several years, I don't understand components but I do appreciate well reproduced music. I recently read about connecting a usb dac and running my music from my portable computer which would be a great setup for me. I presently have a NAD T 760 receiver, Mission 773 speakers and a G4 ibook. I need to buy a DAC and whatever else makes sense to make this work. Any suggestions?

help find amp to connect Bose 10.2 floorstanders to PC

Forums

Hello --

I've been gifted with two 3' high Bose 10.2 floorstanders, and I would like to hook them up to my PC's sound card.

I've learned that this is possible by acquiring an amplifier which has PC-like inputs. I have no idea how to go about buying this amplifier.

Here's what I know:
The Bose 10.2 floorstanders have an impedance of 4 ohms. Means nothing to me though.
Wattage is not listed on the metal stamp of the 10.2 speakers.

What technology is your main amplifier? What brand and model is it and why did you choose it?

It's been several decades now since the tube <I>vs</I> solid-state debate began, with no end in site. Now we have some digital (PWM or class-D) contenders. What technology is your main amplifier? What brand and model is it and why did you choose it?
