It doesn't happen too often, but it does indeed happen. I've tried JRiver over and over, and I just......don't......like it. Old Winamp fan, and habits die hard. I'm sure Winamp could be part of it. I also CHOSE Win 7, and use a Meridian Direct DAC.
I suppose having nearly 27,000 songs and almost 600 gb of music could be the issue? Honestly, it's not that big a deal, but I would like to run it down. Thanks for the tips, and suggestions.
And Bill Ferris, we need more peaceful, understanding folk here, so I attempt to lead by example. Seems you're off to a great start as well. This, to me, is the essence of AK - group participation in a shared pleasure.
As I've said before, it ain't a potato sack race.
Peace, everyone.
Thank you Sir, and good luck on resolving your music computer issues.. I wish I could be more helpful.
But after investing a good bit of research, time and money into it.. I found my answer which now has excluded computer music streaming!!
I setup the OPPO 103 to load & run my 316 Gig worth of music usb flash drive & toggle random and let it run.
I never know what`s going to play next--- it might be Miles, Strauss, Van Halen, or other scores of artists and their songs..
Warts and all, as I not a big fan of everything they offer, but it sure keeps it interesting !!
And I don`t have screw with it after I set it up.. 24/7 my OPPO faithfully churns out what I put in. while providing me with a subjectively higher SQ then any computer setup here with the same exact music on them has..
The OPPO 103, has in reality become a pricy usb to coax based S/PDIF converter, but that`s fine with me for gives me what I want and still retains it`s optical capability if desired..
Take care folks and enjoy the Memorial weekend.. It`s after drink thirty HERE and I`m already late!!
Kind regards, OKB
