HELP The BEST laptop/iPod System on a BUDGET


Okay, first things first. I now own a house, HOORAY. Those not living in cities like NYC, DC, Boston, San Fran, etc might not know how big a deal that is for a single person. With that being said, the Audio habit had to go. I sold ALL of my equipment.

Bel Canto, Rega, Rotel, Totem. ALL GONE! What did I keep? A Macbook Pro, Apple TV, iPod, Airport Express and I just found a brand new Cambridge Soundworks powered sub that used to be part of a Multimedia System. I also have a pair of those Insignia Bookshelf speakers that everyone was talking about.

I would like to have music in my bed room and music in my Den. I've considered buying 2 pairs of the Audioengine A5. Use one with the Airport Express in my bed room and the other with the Apple TV in the Den. I also thought about getting one of those Klipsch iFi's since they have them back for a limited time for decent price.

Anyone else have an ideas? remember on a BUDGET. NOT an audiophile's budget but the regular guy's budget. Oh, right now I have the Insignias being powered by the Cambridge Soundworks sub and the Apple TV as the source with a RCA to mini stereoplug

The Klipsch iFi is a great little setup, on rock in particular. That said, I used to love the way it did on Coltrane and Miles. Can't speak to the others but for the $200 I spent on mine I can't imagine doing better. Happy listening.
