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?


Yes, but you still need a "client" to access your music. Without it you'd be
running back and forth to your computer all the time to select what to play.

If you have an Ipod touch, Ipad, or Iphone, you could use the Air Play app
and control it remotely on a wireless network.



Ah, yes. I'd forgotten about that.
