It gets so puzlin'... Is there a good ref for the person that is not a tech nor an audiophile to sort out what is the "best" way to transport audio electrical signals from one machine to another and what all the different connections on the Mac mean? There are so many patch cords and "fixes" that can make a connection but are they what we want? ie. legible sound vs. "quality" sound at the electrical level. tanks, Don bubba __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
