Ten members came to Warsash, and after we'd dealt with the very congested parking, Stuart told us about audio upgrades he'd made to his Mac Pro and how and why Apple devices can benefit from better stereo, surround sound or both. This wasn't a buyer's guide, as budgets and requirements vary so much and there are many, many options. Instead, Stuart gave an overview of what you can do with all the various connection options (from 3.5mm stereo jacks to HDMI) and talked through how he went from a fairly basic stereo system to a 5.1 surround system, plus his options for connecting it to his next Macs, which will lack the digital optical audio port his Mac Pro has. Following that, the usual breakout discussions and troubleshooting followed.
