The BBC is transmitting this year's Proms at CD quality over the internet in DASH format. As far as I can gather the only way to receive this is via Firefox. My problem is how to get the music stream from Firefox directly to my Phantoms. I have Spark running on the same computer. (Computer does not have Bluetooth.)
I can solve this by feeding the computer ear-phone output to the analog in of my Sonos system which is optically connected to my Phantoms. Sounds very good, even with the various format conversions, but there must be a better way. Any suggestions?
In the end I doubt whether I shall notice any difference from the BBC Radio 3's 320AAC HLS stream which I receive through my Sonos.
