Ive recently moved into a new apartment which I had designed from scratch. As part of the build, I worked with a CEDIA installer to design my AV setup. This incorporates sound into every room, AV cabinet hidden out of the way housing all equipment, Plasma in the living room (which can display my PC output) and LCD in the bedroom.
My setup consists of a Bose Lifestyle 35, Sky+, Pioneer PDP 434HDE, Sharp LC-22SV2E and Compaq Evo D500 SFF PC and Kef speakers in each bedroom and bathroom. Ive been very happy with the setup and have just purchased an Ipod so have been busy converting many of my CDs to MP3.
Id now like to connect the PC to the Bose, so that I can listen to the MP3s in any of the rooms and looking for advice on a sound card. The Bose has a single optical input, which is currently connected to the Sky+.
Im guessing my best option will be to take the audio out from a sound card into one of the aux inputs (phono) of the Bose LS 35. Any suggestions on a better way of doing this? Would the optical make a significant difference? Would it be worth moving the optical from the Sky+ and onto the PC?
Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.
