    Help with AR Wireless speakers to Rotel RSX-1055

    Hi, I am trying to figure out how to make these AW871 wireless speakers work with my Rotel 1055.

    Ideally I'd like them to work for every source/cd, dvd, ipod, etc... but currently the only way I can make these work for me on this Rotel is to plug the left and right jacks directly into my CD (the cd is connected to the rotel through an optical connection so these two are open) and then I can hear my cd player all over the house. Works great.

    But now I've bought an ipod. I would much rather have this same set-up with it. But cannot figure out anyway to do it. I have the ipod connected to the Rotel via the Onkyo docking station. I thought I could just plug the AR jacks into video one and change it's input to IPOD (video 5) but that didn't work.. now I'm stuck.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks !

    Any analog output on the 1055 has to have an analog input to work. So any source connected digitally will also have to have a stereo set of RCA's.

    You can use the record outputs or zone outputs.

      thank you Kevin. I'm not sure I understand exactly, but I think I do. I'm going to try plugging into the record/tape and mess with the settings on that and see what happens. The zone information in the manual is very limited and so far, it seems over my head.
      Thanks

        iPod & Rotel
        by audiojunky
        I'm curious if anyone uses their iPod (or other MP3 players) to hook upto their Rotel gear.

        I know that MP3 players compress music, but the Apple lossless format is really good and so is their high quality AAC conversion. One could argue that it is CD quality.
