I just got a 24" iMac and noticed it had one speaker plug. The
speakers I have available are a pair of Acoustic Research Powered
Partner 570s, and a Logitech Z640 5.1 system that's plugged into a
Phillips PCS805 Aruilium sound card that's USB'd to one of the two
Windows machines I'm giving away.
What options do I have without spending more money?
It really depends on what demands you're going to make on your speakers.
If you are going to be playing games and DVDs that will exploit the 5.1
system, then I'd lean toward the Logitech, but if you're most interested
in music reproduction, I'd go with the ARs. Hooking up either set ought
to be a snap, but once you've got them working you'll want to spend some
time tuning the system (see my original post) unless you're a much less
critical listener than I am.
Despite all the derision which was heaped on my decision to go with the
Klipsch 2.1 system I bought, I have them working beautifully with pretty
much any kind of music I've thrown at them. No "boom and tizz" at this
address.
Cheers!
