Thanks but not quite what I am after. I have Pure Vinyl 3, which
contains their player. The player connects to iTunes and allows 192/24
(or 196/24; I forget). It also queues music in memory so it doesn't
have to be played off the HD.

My problem is I can't really benefit from this by connecting to the
AppleTV. I think my DAC can handle it, but I am not at home to confirm
that. Anyhow, I am looking for a replacement for the AppleTV that can
be fed over ethernet and has an optical output for my DAC, or one device
that does both.


Wouldn't an Airport Express handle this?
