How you incorporate your digital library into your system?

I spent some time trying to decide how I wanted to incorporate my 30K+ digital song library into my main system. After looking at my options and considering how most of my Living Room audio gear was rack mountable, I decided to go with a server rack mount setup. I check on our local craigslist in Tijuana and San Diego as well as a regional search of eBay as I didn't want to drive far to get this thing. I was able to locate one in very nice shape just across the border in San Diego for a song and a friend helped me to pick it up and bring it home. Online I found an inexpensive rack mounted PC, keyboard and pull out monitor. I installed an Onkyo Wavio SE-200 sound card and fitted out the rack like this:

Compaq Server Rack turned into Audio Rack!


What do you think???

:peace:

I'm a little late to this party too, but I think you made a very good use of some recyclable racks. The keyboard is great!

Do you use an external DAC or do you read music files off the computer?
