Thanks! As you have stated, the BOSE speakers do have a built-in amp (You do not have to purchase these from Apple, you can get them directly from BOSE. They are the Room Mate (tm) line ). Since, these do have a built-in amp I would tend to very strongly think that an amp would be required for any speakers larger than a set of earphones. -Matt =============================================================================== UUCP --> ...!{ihnp4,topaz,seismo,harvard}!uwvax!puff!beilke /kirk!diskman \uhura!scotty!diskman \checkov!diskman // ARPA --> beilke@puff.wisc.edu // CSNET --> beilke%puff.wisc.edu@csnet-relay \\ // AMIGA UUCP --> ...!{ihnp4,topaz,seismo,harvard}!uwvax!puff!beilke \// RULES!
