[QUOTE="bikeukeguy, post: 1392936, member: 247618"] Greetings All, I currently own a MacBook, fairly new, with iTunes. I just purchased a vintage 1970's Sansui Seven receiver. So, I am on an adventure trying to interface both. I am currently plugging a Mini phono-plug to RCA cable into the receiver via the aux input. The dilemma is that the output via the MacBook jack is somewhat weak as I need to really crank up the receiver volume to get adequate listening volume when listening to iTunes. If I crank up the preamp in iTunes and the system profile sound quality is not the best. So, I know I can't get line out from the headphone jack, so I am wondering about adding a USB sound device. Getting info on this dilemma is unavailable from Apple Service, the Apple Store so I am wondering if anyone in this forum can help. Robert [/QUOTE]
