I have the opportunity to purchase a Bryston B100 SST integrated amp and was wondering can I use my Macbook pro with USB connected to a RS232 port on the Bryston. I know that there are converters that go from USB to RS232 but do not know if there are an limitations in this conversion or what companies make a quality converter. If anyone could shed some light on this because I really want that Bryston.

I just happened upon your site and think it is spectacular. I want to implement a minimac into my audio system and found a number of articles that Chris wrote very helpful ( I am a computer audiophile newbie). The forums were top notch with a great community helping eachother out. The article on building a (CA03) music server was the one I would like to implement in my system. Looking at the foums it would seem like a seagate drive would also work and mabye have better reliability. Having read some info on the Seagate Showcase line of drives, I became curious on their claims of "wisper quiet". Has anyone heard or implemented this drive in a music server and wiil we have a review of this drive (CA03-1)? Or am I that new and totally picked the wrong drive Thank you Gord
