How to Play iTunes Through My HiFi


O.K. - I have done some research and am still confused. I would like to play iTunes playlists through the stereo system but have found using my MacBook Pro as the source degrades the sound. I've done this at a couple of parties using a DJ system and the Mac sounds inferior to the professional Denon CD players.

My budget is $400.00-600.00 and I already have a Bel Canto DAC II I could also use. Any suggestions of products which can improve the music making abilities of the Mac laptop?

Depending on what type of firewire port you have you can also use a Focusrite Saffire or Saffire LE. This way you can use firewire into the unit and then use the spdif output into your dac. Another nice thing is you can also use it as a dac and plug it into a system that you're using when you DJ as it has the 1/4 jacks.
