Yeah baby! I got Stevie Ray V. playing on PC.

PC Win2K HD -> Winamp -> OEM sound card -> Rat Shack 1/8" mini to RCA phono (Gold Plated) -> MD/Tape In on Yamaha RX-797 << Monster M SERIES bi-wire >> Klipsch RF-7.

It sounds great.

Goals
A. Load lot of music on a server so I can set up play lists and listen to my music all day- hands free.
B. High def recording of vinyl.
C. Make CD, cassettes, and/or other media copies.

So far, I have spent no money to get this far.

This is 1st sound test for my PC music server. I gotta ways to go yet to optimize.

1. The PC fan is way noisy.
2. High end sound card. (maybe digital out)
3. TeraByte hard drives.
4. Need to load lots more music on HD.
5. What not? What else?
6. Need more thinking on what I want to do.
