Nice looking set-up! You are off to a great start! Making your own FLAC library is a great idea. Last summer I had 8 weeks off work and I decided to rip all my CD’s to FLAC. I bought a USB dvd burner, and used EAC (Exact Audio Copy) to make the FLAC’s. FOr the moment I have a mini-pc to DAC to stereo set-up and it is very convenient to have all my CD’s in on place. I listen to them way more now that I have the FLAC files.
nice looking set-up! I bet the Bluesound will be an excellent addition!
