I'd agree (as has Chris last time this came up) about max/full digital volume and using the manual volume pot. That said the digital volume is rather handy when you're sitting comfortably...

My opinion hasn't changed.
Reducing the bit depth makes things sound flatter than they should.

Thankfully my (analogue) amp has remote control, so I too can remain sitting comfortably.
In my book all amplifiers should have RC!
Don't need it to switch inputs, although it's nice if it can.
Just volume up or down is the bare minimum, and a mute button would be the icing on the cake.

Agree that having had a RC for about 5 years now would mo6 want to give it up without a big reason-more so with vinyl as I can drop the stylus at relatively low volumes and increase on the way back to the listening chair and if not quite right can readily adjust in situ.

When I originally composed this topic, it wasn't intended to just about a PC PSU; it was supposed to be about a PC power supply and motherboard pairing. I want the best digital signal to go into my Majestic DAC, that is all. RPi  alone or with hat board is an option but I would prefer a PC solution. Have been doing a little research. Only really managed to find one of the most cringeworthy advertisements for a product that I have ever seen. Along with the pretentious air of marketing BS, even has some fine female eye-candy to go with it. Judge for yourself. Marketing is such an insult to even a basic level of intelligence...
