In Reply to: not sure what parallel and series have to do with it but even the simplest CD players have a computer in them posted by bwb on February 13, 2012 at 17:27:34:
Series vs Parallel
Maybe a football reference might help. There are players and there are coaches. Players are series: coaches are parallel. Coaches can design plays and tell players what to do, but they aren't "in the game". Only the players are "in the game". Today, computers, which should be coaches/parallel, are players/series.
I don't want Windows, OSX or Linux touching the actual audio. I do not want software touching the audio when it's sent to a DAC (ie, no influence on sound quality which is not what we have today in computer audio).
Here's a simple analogy. I get up and put a CD in the transport. I sit down and press PLAY on the remote. The transport feeds the signal to a DAC. In other words, I do not have any influence on the music whatsoever.
I want the computer to replace what I have to do and have that same "no influence whatsoever" characteristic.
