Where can i download呢？
CPU接到amp可以嗎？還是一定要經DAC呢？

you need sound card or dac

APE, AIFF , APPLE LOSSLESS, FLAC or WAV is just the file format to store music.

For setup  (Using Computer)
Computer -> Sound card / USB or Firewire DAC / USD tranport to DAC -> AMP - > Loud speakers
Computer -> Sound card / USB or Firewire DAC  (RCA or XLR , sounds better with XLR) -> Active speakers
Computer -> Sound card / USB or Firewire DAC  (RCA or XLR) -> Headphone AMP - > Headphones or earphones

If you use device from Apple ( like MAC, iphone) , better to use AIFF or Apple Loss for music storage.

If you use LINUX .. try MPD or audicious with JACKd.

If you use windows, try Foobar, Cplay , Audiogate for player

I prefer Wav file for music storage, but it can't store detail of the music ( Not like FLAC , Aiff or APE).
Need to build a cue list for the Wav .. ( So time consuming)

Have fun ! Enjoy

soundcard can be onboard SC, it also include DAC, if you buy another SC, it should have better quality than the OB SC.
If you use external DAC, then no need to buy SC.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

Better sound never appear from AV equipment, suggest you forget about DAC at this moment, except you willing to give up AV, go for 2 channels only.

Download songs free usually from China website, do some google search, don't just sit there do nothing.
