While an electrical engineer might find some difference, for most people the audio is the same on all Mac models.

Disappointing about the lack of a quad core mini. Didn't realize Apple slipped that in. They are on newer CPUs now which are, per CPU, faster but if you're doing something CPU intensive like encoding audio or the like the new machines will be slower than the older quad core boxes. Wonder what the story behind the backsliding is? Maybe the mini machines are based on the same design as the MacBook Air laptops motherboards which are only dual core. I'm sure they do that for battery life but for a mini desktop that's not really a concern. They also went to soldered-on RAM so you can't upgrade after purchase (also like the Air).

Hi!
You’re probably right about that.
BUt i am going to use my new mac when i got one for music production just for 
fun though but if i can afford a mac mini server that would be great.
Are there any differences in audio hardware on the server compared to the mac 
mini?
A mac pro is sadly out of budget unless some extreemly rich person would 
sponsor me *lol*.

If you want raw performance, the 2012 quad-core twin-SSD server is still a 
better bet.  For reasons best known to Apple, current Mac Minis simply don’t 
have a quad-core option.  I think that’s a crying shame, personally, because it 
makes the newer Mac Mini a great deal less suitable as a headless server.  My 
cynical mind says this is because Apple just wants to sell more iMac or, for a 
server, more Mac Pro.  Still, for your typical home uses, that’s not really a 
problem.
