what to choose on a AK DS
Hai I have a akurate streamer. My music is on a mac mini. Now have different options, to play the music.
1. using playlists connection
2. using net aux connection
3. using song cast connection

mac and akds are on a hard wired network

questions:
1. what is the difference between the three
2. song cast shows up in the source list, but net aux not
3. I am looking for a kind of manual which explains the differences, the quality of input, etc

can somebody help?

RE: what to choose on a AK DS
Best use 1 (playlist) for playback on the DS. "net aux" is for iThang(iPhone, iPad, iPod touch)-playback via wifi, songcast for "external" ethernet sources like a PC or Mac.
Q2: If net aux is not shown, you can change that in Konfig, BUT I would leave it like that, because if it's hidden, your DS will automatically switch to "net aux" if you choose the DS on your iThang. I only use this to listen to audiobooks from my iPhone via the Hifi-system.

q3: Unfortunately there is no decent DS manual :-(((
