  1. Hello, I am brand new to the forum and really appreciate what I have already learned. I have a few questions that I could not find answeres for. I currently us a cd jukebox and would really like to switch over to a computer based system. I currently have tried using the Logitech wireless DJ system. It uses blue tooth to send the signal to non critical listening receivers . I am using a soundblaster live (external ) and using the supplied Logitech streampoint software that controls windows media player (it can select other programs as well). with this I can select either of the recievers in the on non-critical rooms or the soundblaster card as the output. I have used 75 ohm cable (30 ft) on the coaxial output of the soundcard feeding the digital (coaxial) input on my B&K ref 30 pre-amp. The remote is almost as versitile as the much newer sqeezbox duet. I thought If I played windows lossless files through the digital out of the soundblaster card the result would be at least as good as my cd jukebox. Unfortunately the output is lower, veiled and not as full sounding. Since I do use bass management even the cd output goes through my &K's dac (presumably) so shouldn't the sound be as good from the digital output of the SB-live? I have some soon to be modded magnepan speakers that will really show the flaws in the system, so I really need a good signal.Can it be that my software or format is causing this? Perhaps the cable connection?I apologize for my ignorance and really appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks, Chris M
