An Escient Fireball is a high-end digital media manager and music server system from the 2000s. It allowed users to rip CDs to an internal hard drive, download metadata and cover art from the internet, stream internet radio, and control massive external multi-disc DVD/CD changers through a single on-screen TV interface.
This has only been tested for playback of music that has been loaded on the machine. Not sure how much Music is already loaded, but it plays back and sounds great.
There is a slight hum to the machine (internally). I’m not sure if that’s normal. I thought maybe it was the fan in the back, but that is not the case. It doesn’t affect the music but you can hear when not playing music.
