After my motive 2 system had given up the ghost after three years and the devil told me, this is not a repair possible I was looking for a successor system for the iMac, preferably as a 2.0 system. Since I had (now B & W and Rotel), was clear that only a high-quality set comes to me for a PC system in question is precisely the Odyssey for the living room with "cheap" home theater sets by. What I liked in the current Nupro's right off the bat is the continuous digital signal processing, what bad D / A converters not only the chance to be up to no good, even if the are very good from the iMac. The question then is how are the D / A converter of Nupro's? My fears were in vain, all the best. Kudos, Mr. Nubert, squeaky-clean, consistent engineering feat! Yes, for 570, - the couple do not buy other people all home theater systems, but I just. But developed in Germany, great finish, very good feel, even the small remote control is well finished (OK, aluminum as the Apple TV would be better, but we leave the church once in the village), which costs all at a price, who is times busy with sound conversion know how expensive alone a good speaker chassis. The display on the front is clear, the operation of the system is simple and logical. What I find really great that all of the cables is are USB, Toslink (optical fiber), 3.5mm jack, RCA, unpack, so to speak, connect and enjoy. Money is indeed gone, but remains the joy.
To save a USB port on the iMac purchase a Toslink Adapter for little money you incidentally. This adapter is plugged into the 3.5mm jack and one used by the optical digital audio output of the iMac.
Whether playing games or music boxes playing just great to make, for this size a great stage. I have not regretted buying a second despite initial doubts. Of course, a bit depth, but which does not necessarily interfere with the crystal-clear, high-resolution sound is missing. If I want to listen to music a long time, I would rather prefer my stereo set in the living room. Who the draft is not enough, should seriously deal with the subwoofer Nupro series. For my purpose a great purchase, and Christmas is coming so determined!
