I run my stereo off of my desktop computer. I then use windows "Remote Desktop" to control remote control the desktop computer from my laptop over my wireless network. You must have XP Pro on the desktop or use a third party remote control software like VNC or PC Anywhere. It's not as convenient as what you are looking for, but it works for me. This site has a couple of such devices: http://www.ramelectronics.net/html/howto-pc-audio.html |

Nah, what you want is a 'streamer'. This little box of tricks collates all your tunes and then plays them through your stereo independently with its own remote control and everything. some have cd players built in the sony one looks alright, Sony NAS-CZ1 Ethernet Client Micro System but the one ive had my eye on is the slim devices number. lovely www.slimdevices.com hope thats of some help. |

The previous poster mentioned Slim Devices, and they make an excellent product. They offer a stand alone solution that cuts your laptop out of the equation. With the Squeeze Box you can stream music off your computer direct to your stereo through the Squeeze Box, which is an auxilliary device that you'd add to your audio setup. Another great product is Apple's Airport Express. It's a fair amount cheaper than the Squeeze Box and works differently. You'd need your laptop to run iTunes, and once you begin playing a song you can tell it to play remotely via the Airport speakers. Two different solutions, both are good, it just depends on your setup. |
