    Mac Mini connections

    Thanks again. So I'm thinking something along the lines of a Cyrus amp (possibly integrated DAC) and/or possibly the Arcam rDAC. That should shift things up a few gears!

    Mac Mini connections

    Thanks everyone, this has been a great help. We only have two inputs to the AV receiver, Mac Mini and cable TV. We want to run all sound through the MA speakers so I assume we will also need to take an audio out signal from the cable TV box. Video can go via HDMI in the same way as the Mac...

    Mac Mini connections

    Thanks ID. I know that the receiver is pretty low end and will be swapping it out fairly soon but I wanted to check that I had my connections running correctly first. You're right, I am using HDMI to send both video and audio, not USB as I mentioned, so will splitting them have a positive...

    MA RX6

    Guys, I have just taken delivery of my new RX6's in gloss white. I thought they might be a little too Gok Wan initially but i'm really liking them. Anyway, at the moment I'm running them with an Onkyo 308 AV receiver. All of my music is stored on Apple TV version 1. It sounds good but I was...
