284984 2004-10-26 23:35:00 I like the idea, especially as I moved the PC from the lounge near the stereo

The DSE jobbie will be a **** load cheaper than any Apple product

284987 2004-10-27 01:49:00 AirPort Express Base Station with AirTunes is overkill, and it needs wireless lan. And it costs US$130.

What I like about the DSE product is it's simplicity... and cost.

I got one yesterday and within 10 minutes I had music all over the house - for $48!

284988 2004-10-27 01:57:00 I'm seriously tempted to buy one, ive been looking for an easy way to get music from my pc to my stereo on the other side of my room. DSE dont make a cable long enough (and even if they did it would cost an arm and a leg) and my soldering skills are shocking ruling out making it myself.

me goes off to find a friend with a VIP card

284989 2004-10-27 02:03:00 I considered buying one myself,even though i already have a cable linking my comp to the stereo....

Helleva good idea.


Harvey Norman have a selection of longer high quality cables(by my standard anyhow)

284990 2004-10-27 02:06:00 I wonder what the audio quality is like? FM is'nt exactly high quality, although neither are MP3's. Pete O'Neil (250)
