Since Apple TV outputs audio via optical connection, what type of device is needed to convert to analogue? 
Bluetooth Music Receivers?
Nieuwen -- Thank for the suggestion. I considered AppleTV but yesterday one of the "techs" at the Apple store stated AppleTV would not work. I will pick a unit up and try it.

Two Amplifiers Connected in Parallel?
George - Thanks again. Not sure that the Maia can be bridged to mono, but I will try to find out. The manual does not mention bridging as an option, but I will contact Rega directly to be sure.
