[QUOTE="sjv13, post: 8059931, member: 632245"] I am asking because I'm thinking about getting a pair of the Paradigm Shift A2 powered speakers (for home audio) and you can daisy chain them together (or use them individually) and it comes with a 3.5mm cable to do so, but you can also use RCA cables. The main reason I'm wondering though is because they have [B]input[/B] for both 3.5mm or RCA. And I'll be using my mac laptop which has a toslink output (3.5mm optical) but then I'll need to convert that to RCA with a little adapter box. The other option is to just use a regular 3.5mm cable straight from the laptop to the input. Also, they sell a bluetooth adapter that plugs into the speaker's input via 3.5mm and then I could connect the laptop via bluetooth. But I think this will be the lowest SQ. But it would make things so easy. It might almost be worth it. I'm not sure. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
