Greetings,
I'm looking to take advantage of Airplay to stream music to a not-yet-purchased home stereo. Looking at the Airplay receivers from Pioneer and Denon, you either need a WiFi dongle (Pioneer) or you need to have an ethernet cable connection to you network (Pioneer or Denon).
It isn't feasible for me to run an ethernet cable to where the stereo will go, so that leaves the Pioneer as the choice for an Airplay enabled receiver. But can't Airport Express allow me to use airplay to stream music to any receiver plugged into the AE?
If so, what advantages do I have of going with (the narrow range of options for) an Airplay enabled receiver?
Thanks much...
