I gave up on playing from my notebook, so now with all the stuff I have I can only play my hard drive through my Oppo. I want that thing to last forever for disc. What do I need to plug in a portable HD? I dont think I can play a portable HD through my iFi micro.

    It seems like your only hope is to find a free guitar and make your own music.

    Plug it into the Aries Mini.

    Was going to say the same. But if it works through the Oppo then what’s the problem? The Oppo lasts longer than start wars.

    I have a Hello Kitty boom box but it's just for lookin at. The mini is in the dungeon 2 channel. I got to see if this iFi has a powered usb which I seriously doubt. Ken, I only have one hand so how am I supposed to type?

    The OPPO is your Swiss Army Knife, I use mine for laptop, hard drive, Chromecast Audio, what seems to be the problem with using your Oppo?

    Steve, I don't want to use it up (they ain't making em anymore) . I would rather use it for playing hirez disc, the few that I have. Well it's kind of a lot sacs dvda blew ray hdcd. Anyway I don't have any other way to play music in the parlor with only the pre and the amp. I need another streamer I guess, the HD Wifi thing won't work because there's no interface.

    The PC doesn't sound as good as the oppo0 even if I run it with the IFI ( oh that's what I was typing ) anyway I guess I have to deal with it since I don't have money for a real solution. I like money uh.
