I also posted this in the MP3 forum, but thought it would be ok here too.
I am getting a new iMac in a few weeks, and my hope was to replace my stereo system with the computer by downloading all my CD's onto my Mac I could have them at a touch of my fingertips and not have to worry about my messy CD collection.
My problem is that the stock speakers just won't do, even the high end Harmon Kardon Soundsticks aren't really loud enough if you want to play your music for a houseful of people at a party.
I have been told you can hook the mac up to the receiver with a cable that has a 1/8" jack on one end and RCA cables on the other end.
I was wondering if anyone has done this and if it works for them. Is the sound good? Is it as loud as your normal stereo and cd player would be through your receiver?
thanks
