Coming at this thread late in the game and this will be my first post. I have an A-TV and loved it. I would import all my CDs as AIFFs to my iMac, which is in a different room, and using an Airport Express I'd wirelessly send this to the A-TV. Used a Hannspree 19" monitor and the basic little white Apple remote to control things. I also put in lots of my family pictures and other photography stuff and the A-TV would cycle through these and it was really nice. Great interface. But I wanted to be able to utilize the 24/96 capabilities of my DAC so now I stream music from the iMac and Pure Music to my DAC. As good as the A-TV sounded w/ redbook the new way is producing much better sound but at the expense of convenience.
The OFFICAL Apple TV thread
I have purchase an Apple TV recently and have looked around the net to find quite a few others have and are trying to integrate this into a decent stereo setup. The purpose of this thread is not to debate the merits of Apple TV but to help users (myself included) find ways of improving sound from their streaming device. I would like to start the discussion myself by asking a few questions:
Has anybody found any third party software which can play iTunes files (WAV, IAFF,) to an Airport express?
If so what do you use?
2. What Toslink do you use on your Apple TV? What is the length?
3. Have you considered or used an after market power cable? If so what were the results?
