Hello Listers, I'm having a lot of trouble getting my head around the new surround sound systems. What I think might work best for me is to find a older powerful stereo receiver or receiver and amp that I can plug my computer directly to and perhaps also connect a airport express or Apple TV.
I don't own a TV and don't enjoy listening to TV or even movies very much. I do love solid strong clear stereo music. So If anyone else out there can advise me here is what I've done so far. I've contacted a electronics repair center and asked them to keep a look out for a solid older system. I would like 200 wats of power and old fashioned controls. Here are some concerns. Would the Apple Express give me air play in the best way or would a Apple TV give any advantages in this set up? Could I run a sub woofer from a older system like that? Any tips on what system might work happily with my Mac? Finally, I'm not avers to using a newer unit but am totally baffled by all the stuff on the remote and all the TV related stuff. Is there a retro receiver out there or a new one with old fashioned capability? My Mac is my entertainment center at this point but I'd love to get better sound then I currently have. eRic Caron -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
