A couple of years ago I acquired a Modwright Truth Transporter Platinum Edition. My digital music library is on a dedicated server and consists of CDs that I've ripped and uploaded using iTunes running on an old Apple iBook. This system produces the best digital 16/44 I've ever heard (bear in mind that I've not heard any "modern" DACs such as the Sabre, which may or may not be capable of superior performance.) it is however limited to 24/96 and I know that at some point I will want to start acquiring and hearing hi Rez music files including DSD which looks as though it could take off big style in the next couple of years.
So I'm thinking this might mean I will need to acquire a suitable DAC with a USB input to implement such an upgrade. BUT, what do I about all the AIFF files I currently have on my server; I want to be able to still play and manage these with whatever new set up I end up with.
Any words of wisdom on this subject will be gratefully received.
