If this has been answered before, I apologize, but I can't find it on the forum.
I'm currently using Windows Media Player>Sonos on an old XP computer with a large external HD I've dedicated to a music server. After reading the 4 part article in Absolute Sound (of which I understood about 20%
), I'm interested in changing over to MC just because of the improvement in sound quality. I'm currently using the system for convenience through a pretty high end stereo; I don't have multiple zones. Currently, I have my computer hard-wired to the Sonos Bridge, which goes wireless to the Sonos Zone Player ZP90. I bypass the internal DAC in the Sonos Zone Player and go by RCA-terminated digital interconnect into the DAC input on my CD player.
My CD player is a pretty high end unit, and I'd like to continue to use its DAC through the coax input. My computer and my big stereo are in two different rooms, so I really have to go wireless. Can someone tell me in simple language (I'm a newbie here and all the acronyms are foreign to me) what I would need to do this? I've seen people mention the Apple Airport, but it doesn't look like it has a coax output to take a digital signal into my CD player.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
