HT4587 Hi, I want to set up a sound system in a new house using apple equipment. I have few sets of Bose speakers that I would like to utilise, my question is - what do I need to set it up and how do I do it with regards to AirPlay? Thanks

Hi, new to the forums and apple tbh.
Moving into a new house and want to set up a sound system, thought apple would be the way to go as I have iPads, iPhones, iPod touch and nanos. I also have a few sets of Bose speakers which I would like to incorporate. What I am wondering is, what else do I need to buy to do this? Do I need seperate devices to attach to each speaker? Do I need a new router? And how would I configure it?
Ideally I would like 4 rooms each with their own speakers that could play simultaneously.
Thanks in advance!!!!

First, please check out the following Apple Support article for details on setting up an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) for iTunes streaming. Note: You will need a separate AX for each set of speakers that you want to stream to. Also, note that you can stream a single audio file to one or more speakers, but you cannot stream separate audio files to different speakers simultaneously.
Second, the Bose speakers you mentioned would need to have an audio input jack, either analog or optical digital to receive the stream from the AX. As you know, Bose makes a number of different speaker/home theatre audio options. If your specific model of speakers do, then it's just a matter to use the appropriate audio cable between the audio port of the AX and the speakers.

HT3310 Connecting new iPhone 5 to sound system.

I just got new iphone 5's. i also have several "computer sound systems" throughout our home we connect our phones and iPads to. The new 5's wont play when connected. Is there an adapter now required for this?

These are computer amplified speaker systems you would hook up to you desktop computer using a mini audio cable usually supplied with the system. The mini cable ends plug into the old iPhone 4's and the iPads and allow the music to be heard like a good stereo system. The cable fits into the new iPhone 5, but no sound is played. Is this any clearer?

Wierd sound on my ipod?

I have this wierd sound in my ipod that I hope somebody can help me out with... I usually listen to my ipod before I go to sleep so I turn the volume down really low.. first the sound sounded like a ticking clock or something..? but now it sounds more like the speakers are busted.. But the sound disappears when I turn up the volume..??
what do you think??
do I have to send it in for repair??:(
(PS. Excuse my english)

when I turn up the volume the music sounds just fine.. and the busted speaker sound.? I don't know how to explane it, just that to me it sounds like when the speakers to the stereo is broken, there's this scratching sound you know...???
im sorry my english is not so good, im not that good to explaine:(

Really wierd sound in MBP.

I recieved my mbp a few days ago and love it. But today i had it on the desk and went to move it to the other room and i heard a wierd sound when it was at an angle that sounds like magnetic balls were rolling around. Its hard to describe the sound but it did sound like little balls were rolling around. It stopped doing it now. Please hel[ figure out what the sound was! Thanks
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Well, I would have said the hard drive, however, the fact that it only happens while on an angle leads me to believe it may be the fan. I can't imagine the hard drive being damaged to the point where it grinds on tilt and yet still works. More likely it is a loose fan that is aggravated by a tilt. It all depends on the location of the sound though.

New sound system for ipod touch?

Hey everyone,
I am looking for suggestions for a new sound system for my iPod Touch. I am not sure which generation my iPod is, if anyone knows any way to find out I would appreciate the tip
The sound system I have works ok, but when my iPod plays there is an annoying static issue. So I am looking for something that will dock my iPod, allow me to play my iPod touch without any static, and of course charge my iPod. I am looking to keep under 100 dollars. I welcome any and all suggestions as I am clueless and have a hard time figuring out which systems are good and which aren't. thank you

Look on the back of your iPod Touch for one of these numbers.
These numbers are directly from Apple.
iPod Touch 1st generation - A1213
iPod Touch 2nd generation - A1288
iPod Touch 3rd generation - A1318
iPod Touch 4th generation - A1367
Let us know what generation you have.

I am new to all this technology. I just hooked up apple tv but the sound comes only thru tv and not my sound system, any advice?

What do I need to do to make sound come thru sound system, not just tv when using apple tv?

How is the Apple TV connected to your sound system? Are you using the HDMI cable or an audio cable?

What is the best way to hook up my Creative Labs Inspire 5.1 sound system to my new iMac?

We recently purchased a 27" iMac and want to use our Creative Labs Inspire 5.1 sound system with it. How do we make this connection to get the most out of the sound system?

If I am not mistaken, your 5.1 came with 3 plugs that are meant to go into a regular PC. If that's the case, you should have received a Y like cable, that connects any none channeled sound source, like an iMac, and helps distribute it as 5.1. But they also make a curious USB device to help connect it.

An outboard audio device, if you really want to get the max out of your 5.1.
Unfortunately that is a Windows only device:

So it won't work.

Itunes won't play anymore through external sound system

My mac functions as a Protools recording studio. The hardware (a Digi002 system) attaches to my G5 by firewire. Until recently, itunes worked just fine playing through this external system. I'd simply go to system preferences, change the sound inputs and outputs to Digi002.
These days I can still get all of my pro music software to play through this external Digi002 system. But something has gone amiss with itunes. It doesn't matter if itunes is already open, or not yet open. If I go to sound preferences and switch it to DIGI002, itunes ONLY plays through my internal compouter speaker. And if i go back to the sound preferences, i find that the external audio choice had been unchecked, as if by some function within itunes itself.
i have asked this same question on the Protools forum. Respondees give mixed answers, but basically say, yes it used to work, and no, it no longer works. Some say it WILL work, but you have to fire up your sound system BEFORE you turn on your computer. That is a totally disfunctional "solution" for my situation. Who wants to keep a sound system on all day long, when I may not use it for several hours at a time?
So what's going on here? And what did I install that made itunes suddenly not function with my external system? I strongly suspect it may be some newer version of itunes itself. If so, is there some workaround utility that will let me re-connect itunes to the Digi system? any help is appreciated.

Hate to do this, but we've gotta start with the simple **** first, and work our way up. The volume control in iTunes isn't turned down, is it?
Aside from that, you should launch Quicktime Player, go to File - Open, and open one of your iTunes songs in that, and see if you can hear sound there.

Beats-Audio / Sound System Enhancement dv7 / HP Envy 15

Beats-Audio - Sound system Enhancement
Test system
dv7t – 6100 Quad / Windows 7- 64bit
Beats-audio
Introduction - Cave Sound Caper
Edits 29-Nov-2011
This is a re-write of this document.
Parts One and Two have been flipped. It's a work in progress.
The purpose of this Post is to provide a method to enhance the sound coming from your onboard beats-audio speakers. The quality of the sound should improve - more importantly, MORE sound should be available. This is important if your system is suffering from lack of enough sound from the onboard speaker system.
This process does not make use of the Loudness Equalization enhancement. I tested the Loudness Equalization enhancement (for a different purpose). Setting the enhancement on my test system and then switching the enhancement off resulted in the “Low Sound” syndrome. It took some amount of work to recover from that mess. The Loudness Equalization enhancement, in this author's opinion, is to be avoided unless its use is necessary.
FLIPPED:
The original intent of this procedure has been to provide a means to increase the amount of sound available from the onboard speakers on notebooks that are equipped with beats-audio IDT sound drivers. The “Pre-work” on my original post was overwhelming the intent. If your system is healthy, and the only reason to read this document is to enhance the amount of sound from the speakers, there is no need to hash through the work to fix your IDT driver installation. I’ve moved that section to the end – IDT installation and other work has become Part Two.
You must have your IDT HD driver successfully installed into your system.   The proper IDT HD driver contains the beats-audio interface.
Where to Start?
If you have “No Sound”, the Enhancement process may not work for your system. Please take a look at Part Two and decide whether any of the steps in that section apply to you. It is not my intention that you waste your time trying things you’ve already done over and over to regain the sound on your system. There are many posts on the forum on how fix “No sound”. This post addresses only a couple of “No sound” issues.   There is one slight possibility – see the section about the controls in iTunes – make sure your sound players volume controls are not mis-matched – and make sure you didn’t turn something OFF by accident. If you turned off the sound while watching a movie and now the HDMI sound is off - Poof! You might not have any sound – anywhere. It's just something to check...
If you have “Low Sound”, you might consider reinstalling your IDT driver to see if the issue can be corrected: IDT reinstallation is described in Part Two.
SideBar: As of 24-Nov-2011
If you have a dv7t: check on your HP Software and Driver website for a new IDT HD audio driver. Depending on your model, there may be a new version of the IDT driver, BIOS, and other important updates.
Part One
Some Setup Checks and on to the Enhancement
Make sure all basic Sound settings are set to “Default” to start.
Portions of this procedure are "not of my invention". Full credit will be given later in the Post. This section explains how to increase the amount of sound coming from the onboard speakers. It also attempts to give you a bit of control over the kind of sound coming from the speakers that you may not have at the present. Beats-audio is great; frankly, though - it's made for external powered speakers or headphones... what you get from the speakers on the notebook leaves something to be desired.
A while back I found a very interesting post on the topic of increasing the sound from the onboard speakers. The post was originally written for the HP Envy15. I believe the post has merit - Part One of this procedure is based on that original post.
I tested the suggested combined actions – it does work (at least on a healthy system). The sound quality showed improvement over the standard “out-of-the-box” beats-audio setup and the quantity of volume increased. In other words, this procedure makes the sound coming from the onboard speakers louder without the use of the Loudness Equalization enhancement setting.
I would suggest trying this “Enhancement” under the following circumstances:
Sound Quality is Poor, or the amount of sound from the speakers needs improvement
Sound is quantity “LOW”*
Sound is absent AND you believe the absence is NOT due to hardware failure.** See note on iTunes.
NOTES:
* If your LOW sound issue is severe, it may ONLY respond to using the Loudness Equalization enhancement, in which case this procedure is not recommended for your use. The two are not compatible. See Part Two.
** If there is NO sound on your computer, it’s possible that completing this procedure may not result in any improvement. See Part Two.
Sound Controls – iTunes, Media Player
I would add to the emphasis on checking the volume on one’s iTunes setting. If iTunes volume is turned down, the notebook’s speakers will respond to that – turn up the volume in iTunes without adjusting the volume in the volume mixer and the sound on the notebook will not increase properly (or will suddenly jump). It’s a juggling act and one that must be taken into account when the sound is being reset.   Additionally, if you have other audio players on your computer – in addition to those mentioned in the post – be sure to check them for volume controls: it is important during a sound reset that all the sound players be in sync. If you miss this, you may not get your sound back.
Check for this mismatch in sound volume controls if you do not have sound or if you did have sound and, at some point you turned OFF your sound while watching a moving, a DVD, a something on HDMI controlled audio - and suddenly - you do not have any sound. Sound controls get tangled up. Sometimes you just have to unplug it, but you do have to check the controls.
Sample Rate and bit Depth
I do not use the suggested Sample Rate and bit depth of 24bit 96000 Hz. My system cannot tell the difference and defaults everything to 16bits – my recording equipment cannot discern the difference.   My ears lack sample rate sophistication.   I’ve left my dv7t Quad sound, Default Format (sample rate bit depth) at 16bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality). Sounds fine and it’s where most of my crummy recordings are set anyway. Don’t lose sleep over this one.
Where’s my Taskbar ICON?
A couple of HP forum posts have mentioned the loss of the beats audio icon from the Taskbar tray – the icon should restore itself if one can force the IDT driver to reinstall. Without the IDT driver, beats-audio is not going to work. Assuming the driver has installed and one can reach the beats-audio panel from the Control Panel, THEN it’s possible that for some weird reason the Taskbar icon didn’t reset. It might be possible to try and force a reload of the beats panel controller into the Taskbar. I think this is the file.
For a 64bit system:     C:\Program Files\IDT\WDM\sttray64.exe

It took me awhile but I now have the sound level about 3x what it was to start with. Try these tweaks:
Sound Enhancement Procedure
Control Panel > Sound > Playback > (Highlight) Speakers and Headphones > Configure
New Window ‘speaker setup’ > Test (should hear sound L/R) > Next >
           UNCHECK ‘Front left and right’ (if checked) > Next > Finish

             Tone Controls > Bass +1 Treble +3 > Apply
             Advanced > Default Format > 24 bit 96000Hz > Apply
NOTE:
After this DO NOT use the Beats control (Fn + B) or it will reset the tone controls.
HP dv7(t)
Taskbar > beats-audio panel
OR
Control Panel > Beats Audio Control Panel
        Listening Experience > Graphic Equalizer > Custom
        -1, +8, +10, +8, +9, +9, +9, +8, +9
Remember that these are suggestions – start here and re-adjust later as desired.
LEFT SIDE
Make sure Beats Audio is CHECKED
        Click the “Music” radio (round) button
        65, 65, 85, 65, 65
NOTE: The Left Side settings are somewhat arbitrary. The “Center” setting is higher – this provides the most sound and should be set higher at least initially for testing, especially if your system has sound issues.
The next section is partially excerpted from the original Post – Remember: JJ’s post was written for HP Envy15 – please adjust your results accordingly. Edits have been made for readability.
Control Panel > Beats Audio Control Panel
Playback > Speakers and headphones > Arrow above Speaker symbol and Select Small Speakers
Select Equalization> Select 'custom'>
Adjustments for this are mainly to boost the signal level in the preamp so we get higher volume while not distorting the sound from the tiny built in speakers.
My setting values are as follows: left to right;
-1, +8, +10, +8, +9, +9, +9, +8, +9, +10
MAKE SURE TO CLICK SAVE WHEN DONE!
Note: Do not crank up the Bass (31hz) control or it will overload the speakers which can't reproduce this anyway, you can even turn down more if you have distortion at high volume.
Check that the slide controls for 'master' and 'speaker symbol' are all the way up.
This should make a big difference in sound volume and quality, and there is one last way to get louder sound. Depending on what you use to play back your audio you can adjust the program’s sound settings or EQ controls also.
In iTunes the EQ has a 'preamp' slider which I boost to about +6, this increases the output level while leaving the EQ settings alone (make sure to check the turn EQ on box).
Windows media player: you have to raise all EQ levels equally (not too much) to boost without affecting sound quality.
In general it is not a good idea to use more than one EQ system in an audio signal or you get more distortion, so don't adjust the EQ curves or bass/treble on more than one device. I chose the Beats / IDT EQ to make the tonal adjustments because it is the audio driver program and preamp that outputs to the speakers, so it should have the best sound quality.
Any adjustments before the preamp that add distortion will just be amplified, so go easy on adjustments in your play back programs.
Finally, when you play your audio,
Sound > Open Volume Mixer >
Make sure to click the Sound logo in the Taskbar so the slider pops up>
Click ‘mixer’ then you should see all the sliders for your devices;
You can independently adjust the levels for the right mix.
If you open the Beats panel and minimize it then a mixer slider also shows for this and you can dial in the effect of the EQ settings.
Headphones:
One last thing; When listening to headphones you will need to increase the bass EQ setting (since headphones can reproduce the low frequencies) in the Beats panel or I just change the drop down selector to the one with a flat curve (beats studio I think) -- the volume for my headphones was not an issue so I defeat the EQ for better sound quality.
Whew. I Didn't think it was this complicated when I started typing....
Hope everyone enjoys better sound with this.

Loudness Equalization – and the LOW Sound Result
I was testing the system sound… CD playing in the background: Sting “If on a Winter’s Night” 02 Soul Cake playing through iTunes – standard speakers-headphones (beats-audio coasting along).
Sounds -> Playback Devices -> Speakers and Headphones -> Properties -> Enhancements
I have rewritten this part three times trying to get it right. Here’s the gist:
I switched on the “Loudness Equalization” enhancement. The sound jumped; it was loud and distorted. I switched the enhancement off – the sound dropped off and didn’t come back. I turned up the volume (with the slider) and down and up and down – and I was hearing Less and less sound from the speakers: “Low Sound Syndrome”: I was hearing what would be expected at setting of 7%. Well, that sucks. (Technical term.)
Based on this experience, I hypothesize that it’s possible to lose one’s sound entirely just by initially adjusting this one enhancement and then losing control over the ensuing ever diminishing returns. I didn’t continue to test this into a theory. It’s a hypothesis. If I had an extra dv7 sitting around, I might sacrifice it on such testing. I gave up right away and went into recovery mode while I still had some sound.
Recovery:
After the Loudness Equalization was turned off,
Recovery Attempts to recover normal sound levels included:
Resetting all Sound to Default settings,
Installing the driver from the webpage (standard load – download, double-click and install), reboot,
“Hard Reset”.
It was finally necessary to force load the IDT HD driver to recover the sound to its normal levels; that is, the driver was Uninstalled and allowed to reinstall at boot. (“Local” install from the Device Manager also works.)
Commentary:
I did not bother with a registry cleaning at this point - it may have made a difference, though it's unlikely since the driver needed to be completely reset by this time. I advocate registry cleaning! Bad things happen to good computers because of a dirty registry. Use your favorite or download CCleaner (free).
Try a Driver Update:
You can always check for Driver updates here – If the driver does update - you may be done with this part. Check the sound and proceed to "Enhancements".
At the Right-Click > Update Driver Software
Audio Driver “Uninstall”
Control Panel -> Device Manager -> Sound, video and game controllers
          Right-Click IDT High Definition Audio CODEC -> Uninstall
You have a choice at this point
If you do not have the means to replace your driver,
THEN do not delete your driver from the computer
OR - If you believe the driver is not working at all,
And / Or you have tried the standard Uninstall/self-install method previously without results,
AND You have the means to REINSTALL that driver from scratch*
Then you may delete the driver -
*Driver Installation From Scratch Requires the following:
You have your IDT HD driver on your computer as a sp*.exe file, for example, in Downloads
Reinstall with Boot:
Shut down the system
Reboot
The driver may install itself at login as the system scans for hardware changes
OR
Reinstall WITHOUT BOOT - Initiate the scan for hardware changes:
Right-Click on the IDT driver , > "Scan for Hardware Changes"
--> Check your sound at this point. It's possible that the driver has in reinstalled itself.
Manual Driver Installation - Comments:
There are a couple of paths used to get the IDT driver onto your system. You can download it from your HP Software and Driver website. You may have been given the path to your IDT driver at the HP ftp softpaq site. The package is downloaded as a sp*.exe file.   You may download the software as often as you need it. Make sure you have the package downloaded before you delete your driver.
Once you have downloaded that package onto your system, the original sp* file will stay intact. As long as you do not delete it, you can reuse it. Once you do install the driver onto your system, an installation directory is created in C:\SWSetup, named the same as the sp* file (without the .exe extension).
In C:\SWSetup\sp* are all the files necessary to reinstall your driver. If you install the software from the sp*.exe file in your Downloads folder, the new installation will ask you whether to overwrite the data in the SWSetup/sp* with the contents of the .exe package – do it. The reinstallation is just unwrapping and redistributing what’s in the .exe file into the same SWSetup/sp folder.
If the "Driver Store" is removed, that is, if the driver package is ever removed from C:\SWSetup, you can reinstall from the sp* file as long you you have it in your Downloads folder - it will recreate that SWSetup/sp* folder.
What about Versions?
Latest is Usually best. If you are concerned AND you think you may not be able to get another a copy of an older driver that is in C:\SWSetup\sp*, make a copy of the folder before uninstalling any driver or making any changes.
Installation from the Original sp* package
Find the sp* file on your system. It will be most likely be located in your “Downloads” folder.
Simple Driver Installation from the 'Saved' installation sp* file:
Close everything that isn’t needed, browsers, games, windows…
Right-Click on the installation package (the sp* file), Select 'Run as Administrator' and start the installation
Answer any questions…and follow the instructions
or...
Installation from the Device Manager
If the driver software is still on the system from a previous installation, it is located in C:\SWSetup
You can tell the Device Manager to access the package on the system:
Control Panel > icons > Device Manager > (Highlight) IDT High Definition Audio CODEC >
                      Right-Click > Update Driver Software > Browse my computer for driver software
                      Browse to C:\SWSetup\sp*
                      Be sure the “Include Subfolders” box is CHECKED
27-Nov-2011
Audio Services Check / Restart
This section is not strictly part of the "Enhancement" procedure. It has been included because it is necessary that these settings be correct so that the sound can function properly. If you are not having sound issues, skip this part...
Check system Services to make sure that your sound related services are running as they should.
Restart each service (except as noted): Right-Click > Restart
Control Panel -> icon -> Administrative Tools -> Services > bottom of page > Standard (optional - makes it easier to column sizes)
Sound services must be showing as
Status = Started
Startup Type = Automatic
Sound Services:
Audio Service
Multimedia Class Scheduler
Windows Audio
Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
Power (check only)
RPC (check only)
That’s it.
It’s a matter of tweaking the settings to get results. Do not forget that that Left/Right Speakers setting is turned off in Speakers Configure. It’s not a big deal (assuming this works), but it’s DIFFERENT and it needs to be kept track of.
I hope this helps your sound work better!
Kudos are Earned!
Kind Regards,
Dragon-Fur

Nice extensive research on reseting Beats Audio on the HP laptops.
Just bought the Envy 17t-3000 and I updated all the drivers via HP Support Manager.
BEFORE the update, the Beats Audio worked well..
1. Press the dial and the popup box comes up ~3 secs
2. Volume indicator swirl appeared to show volume level
AFTER the update, something changed the Beats Audio... had to re-install the latest driver from HP website (even after contacting HP Tech support via chat and email several times)...
1. Press the dial and the popup box comes up ~10-12 secs now!
2. Volume indicator swirl DISAPPEARED so volume level indicator is GONE
Sure the sound works but NOW I do NOT know or remember the volume level whenever I listen to music.
You can barely tell on the Windows Speaker icon on Icon bar since 2 sound waves indicate at least 50% sound level but that's it!
I have the following softwares and checked their settings and set them all at 50% and use the Beats Audio dial to control the volume whenever the programs are used:
1. WinAmp
2. VLC player
3. MPC
4. WMP
No matter what I try, it appears that the Beats Audio Volume Control Swirl Indicator is GONE! Worse, there's NO Windows volume control indicator unless leave the Volume Mixer open!
Anyone know how to fix this problem and bring Back the Audio Beats volume indicator??
Thanks!

10GB iPod w. Firewire and connecting to iVoice sound system

I have a relatively old iPod with row of four touch button controls above the track wheel. It was purchased in Dec 04 and I believe it's a third generation iPod. It connects to my iMac via a Firewire connection.
When I dock it into the iVoice speaker system the controls freeze and the battery doesn't charge. I first tried a Magnavox system and returned it after experiencing the same problem.
Is it possible that all of the speaker systems available today are only compatible with the newer iPods with USB connection
Or, is there a solution to this problem besides upgrading to a newer generation iPod?

Found out that my iPod was the last version with a firewire connection and the sound systems on the market today only support iPods with the USB 2.0 connection

Received a replacement ipod nano in early January . Works well in a sound system but keeps turning off when earphones are used. tried 3 pair but same result. When tried for support comes up as expires. Says I have to purchase . Why????

Received an ipod nano replacement in January. It works in a sound system but keeps turning itself of or loosing sound when earphones are used. I have tried several sets os earphones with the same result. When I just tried to seek support my Serial number comes up with warranty expired although the letter says 3 mths warranty. What gives Apple ??? Any one any advice??/

This is usually an indication that your headphones are not plugged all the way in. The white plastic part of the headphones should be flush with the Nano and no silver from the plug should still be visible. The headphone jacks on the new 6G Nanos are a bit tighter than previous generations, so it requires a bit of extra push to get the headphones to pop all the way in.
Also check make sure the jack is clear of debris such as lint.

Playing ipod nano through home sound system

I want to play my ipod (nano) through my panasonic dvd player + sound system. Ive tried heaps of leads into every plug socket in the dvd player, but no tunes!
What type of lead do i need?
Where do i plug it into in the player??
Do i just press play to start playing?

Just to expand on what Chris said.
The phono inputs of a stereo amp are designed to accept the inputs of a moving magnet (or sometimes a moving coil) phono cartridge on a turntable. These are low output devices and so the phono input is engineered to amplify the signal.
A line level output such as the iPod doesn't need such amplification and so, if you connect the iPod to the phono input of your stereo you will overload that input. The sound will be distorted and in many instances may cause damage to the speakers. The phono input is for turntables only. Connect the iPod to a line level input as previously mentioned.
The reason you will get a better sound from the iPod when connected to a stereo and using the line out port from the dock (and not the headphone jack on the iPod itself), is that the headhpone socket is powered by a low quality amp. It's meant to drive an easy load like headphones and not the input of a stereo.

cous anyone please point me in the right direction......I am new to Solaris, please help me get this installed.....
thanks, michael

Just an idea:
After installing the latest kernel + usb patches a system built around
an ASUS P2B showed similar behaviour: Soon after the screen is
cleared during the boot sequence the machine hung. Before installing
these patches the machine was running without problem.
The problem was a disabled USB IRQ in the bios setup. The system has
no USB peripherals connected, so the USB IRQ was disabled in the
BIOS (in an
attempt to free some IRQs - which is actually nonsense in a PCI
system; some old habit from good old ISA PCs). Re-enabling the
USB IRQ in the BIOS fixed the solaris boot problem. Probably the
solaris 8 USB drivers had detected the USB bus and started scanning
for devices there; and that hung the machine due to non working USB controller IRQs.
Maybe you have a similar problem...

What's your sound system ? Home Theater ? PA ? other options ?

Please chime-in and post your system even if you have no other comment .
I just ordered the supped-up iMac and Logic Pro and I am excited to get started .
Now I'm just using my old Pioneer stereo system which really puts out but it's a mess of wires and I would like to get a new system .
Option #1) I'm looking for a small PA like the Passport 150 . Anybody ever use their pa for sound ? What about the Bose Column PA's ?
#2) There are lots of home theater systems in all price ranges since logic does surround sound .
#3) Pro studio speakers . I don't really see why they cost more ??
As a horn player I do like to turn up the volume sometimes to play-along so little computer systems (even really good ones) would probably not do .
Powerbook eMac Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Pro studio speakers . I don't really see why they cost more ??
well this is a pretty simple one.. because studio monitors are actually a great deal better than home theatre speakers, in terms of faithfull reproduction of sound.
fact is, most sound systems for the domestic market are not much more than cheap components put together in nicely designed boxes. the boxes range from nicely designed to very nicely designed, and some high end ones are even extremely nicely designed.. boxes. made of either nice wood, very nice wood or extremely nice wood. then, you print a pretty, lifestyle-ey brochure, full of fancy looking diagrams and lots of talk of acoustics and transducers. these brochures range from nice to very nice to extremely nice, depending on how much you want to sell the system for, targeting exactly the kind of living room that it is designed to look good in.
if you want to use logic to record and produce music properly, you'd be better off going for monitors that are intended to let you hear what is going on as best as possible, as opposed to a system that is designed to give as exciting a listening experience possible for watching DVDs in surround, while looking well-coordinated with the sofa. the studio monitor market is pretty broad right now, there is a good choice of very decent powered monitors available at fair prices.

Wierd sound on my new 2.1 T3030 sound system
