It has a built in amplifier so it eliminates the need for other audio hardware. Apple TV looks too small to have an amp. As someone who hates audio hi-fi hardware and all the related nonsense, I think I'm sold.
For example, it can power a small pair of bookshelf speakers. There's a pair of speakers in the Google Play store.
- sjwright 14y agoOr you could just buy one of the many AirPlay speakers on the market? Have you had a chance to hear the Audyssey Audio Dock Air? That thing kicks some serious musical reproduction butt, and doesn't require any cables other than for electricity.
- mieses 14y agothanks but i wouldn't go that route for several reasons. i like the idea of simple, normal, default speakers. they are not tied to any standard like airplay and they just do one thing well - make sound. a wireless audio signal may suffer from interference in some situations. i don't like apple itunes at all, but that is just my personal preference. i've always avoided itunes and have used foobar2000, songbird, anything but itunes. i have a lot of classical music in FLAC files and just don't want to deal with Apple and their rule of the month.
