Greetings Onhwy61,

Nice lineup of components you have there. How are you enjoying the combination of Mac G5, Lynx AES16 and MSB Platinum DAC? Are you playing high resolution audio files through iTunes, with or without Sonic Studio's Amarra? How does your digital front end with high resolution material compare to your analogue front end?

Best Regards,
Aaron
