I bought an HDPLEX H5 case with the 100 watt linear power supply with 250W HiFi DC-ATX (They currently offer at 200 watt linear power supply with 300W HiFi DC-ATX ). ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Gene mATX LGA1151 INTEL I5-6600 3.30GHZ Skylake G.SKILL Ripjaws V 16GB DDR4-2400 SAMSUNG 850 EVO M.2 2280 250GB - for the boot drive SAMSUNG 850 EVO 500GB for the music files. HQplayer software To connect from the server to my K-03x 2- High end silver USB from Audio Sensibility in Canada IFI micro – iUSB3.0 Cost in total was a bit less that the retail of the BDP-2. I turn off all up sampling and filters on my K-03x. With hqplayer you have a choice of about 20 different filters and a huge selection of up sampling to PCM or DSD. You can also use Roon as the front end with hqplayer doing the up sampling. I find I have much more control and tweaking options with this setup. Last edited by adol290; 06-06-2017 at 09:38 AM. |

I had a BDP2 also. I didn't build my own music server(I wish I could), but I recently changed to a new music server. I still can't believe how much I prefer the new music server compared to the BDP2!
