AE questions

[knacker]

I need a bit of help with what exactly I need to do the following:

I have Apple Lossless Files stored on external HDD linked to my Tablet PC. I have tablet PC linked to my Cyrus 6s2 via USB CA DAC Magic. I have a ipod touch which I will use as remote for this but I have a pair of now redundent Audioengine A2's that I would like to use in a different room to listen to fiels via itunes. Do I just need an AE plugged into the RCA connectors of the A2s as I have a wireless network at home and will the Ipod TOuch be able to act as remote for both the tablet pc and the AE on the A2s.

If this is a stupid question then please feel free to get me and also where is the best place to buy the AE from T'Internet as there are no shops in my place which sell anything like this

Yes, you plug the AE into the RCAs in the back of the A2s - shame it's not the A5s as they even have a power socket for the purpose

And yes, iPod Touch works as a remote if you download the free 'Remote' app from the iTunes store. Note that you'll have the same music in both rooms though - you can't have your PC playing one and AE another.

Thanks John- I would only be using laptop or A2s at any one time so that's good

No probs. Don't know about places to buy though - depends on your location. Amazon and John Lewis would be my first port of call in the absence of a local Apple Store.
