plus a decent DAC I wouldn’t dare calling it “decent” ;-) Try to get an external DAC real soon, connect it to the Airport Express via optical cable and hear the difference! I use three Airport Express stations to stream music to different locations in the house, it’s really comfortable. I can’t remember the last time I played a CD from the CD player. Each Airport Express is connected to a stand-alone DAC; this way the sound is much, much better. Gratulations and enjoy your Airport Express, Werner.

Randy, if you like Diana Krall you’ll probably also enjoy Patricia Barber. Werner.

> It sounds like you have turned off wifi of the timecapsule Turn *off* WiFi in the Time Capsule? How?

Jeff, > I am especially interested in albums you feel are very high quality recordings in addition to the wonderful suggestions you already got you might take a closer look at the releases of ECM records: http://www.ecmrecords.com/ Musical creativity as well as technical quality of this label are outstanding. Werner.

Paul, > making sure you are sending AIFF files to them when streaming AIFF files to an Aiport Express the files will be converted on the fly by iTunes to Apple Lossless. Since I personally can’t hear any difference between AIFF and ALAC I suggest using ALAC as default file format in iTunes, XLD, Max or whatever ripping software is used. Werner.
