PowerMac G4/amp connection?

Hi folks,

Is there a way of connecting my PowerMac G4 to Marantz PM4001 stereo amp so I can get sound through my bookshelf speakers?

Yes - you need to connect the headphone output to a spare input on the amp ... a 3.5mm stereo jack to 2 x phono lead will do it ...

Thanks. I'll need a fairly long lead (about 4m should do it) and shall try to get one asap. Didn't think it would be so simple.
