    I love the Harmon Kardon wireless Sound Sticks but they may be a tad bit expensive. Take a look at them on the Amazon web site: LINK

    I'm not impressed with Bose at all. They were once top of the line for a US speaker company, however, their quality control over the years has gone downhill. I have a set of Bose speakers here at home and the Harmon Kardon ones sound better.

    I don't have any experience with them, however, I believe some of our other forum members own them. Maybe they'll give you their opinion.

    Confusing Bose with quality is a mistake many people make. Bose hasn't made a quality speaker cabinet, EVER, that I've heard (in more than 25yrs of working in audio)...

    Worth repeating...

    My best job ever was selling stereo equipment - too many yrs ago. Would never "pay" for anything Bose.

    B&W makes some decent sounding stuff, but at the price of the A7, you could get better sound from a mid level receiver and a couple of decent speakers.

    Just about everyone has Airplay built into their receivers nowadays.
    I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth.
    In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus.

    Just to throw in my 2¢ here... Bose is overpriced and overhyped. They aren't the absolute worst things you can buy, but at their particular price point they may well be. As for the Harman Kardon Soundsticks, I have the wired version for my iMac and I can enthusiastically recommend them. They sound absolutely fantastic and are easily one of the best 2.1 computer speaker sets out there.

    Please verify and include the exact model/year of your Mac and OS X version number (available from "About This Mac", then "More Info" on the Apple menu).
