does this work well with an Airport Express? Does it have an audio jack for plugging the airport express?

There is a P2 connector (cable not included), so you can connect the speaker on the Airport Express, but there is no need for it, since you can connect it directly to the device (iPhone, for example) via Bluetooth, without going through AE.

I have not had the chance to use it with the airport express. it does have a audio jack and I have plugged iPods and my iMac in this speaker. it works great for background music.

I won't say for certain, however, the jack that it sits on is pretty deep. I used it many times with a case before I made it wireless (using an Airport Express) and I never had issues. Wasn't even close to being a problem. I honestly think you'd be fine.

To operate, this unit requies the insertion of an older model airport express (square style). But once it's set up on your network, it can receive the signal of any device, including an itouch, as long as it has AirPlay.

You need the previous version of the airport express (Models M9470LL/A or MB321LL/A). The newest model of airport express will not physically fit into the speaker unit. Yes, any iPod or iPhone or iPad will be compatible. You simply airplay to the airport express that is embedded in the speaker.

It is a standard headphone plug in. Fits into airplane jacks and converters. I would say it does.

It will. (Of course it won't replace your modem). I'm still using mine with my HP laptop that has a blown soundcard. It works well with headphones and will also work with external speakers. The volume is not very loud with external speakers, but great with headphones or earbuds. Powered external speakers would be fine, I think. This is, for all intents and purposes, a USB soundcard.

This one does NOT route audio. If you want that capability, purchase the product that I mentioned in my review of this one. (make sure you select the USB version that is out there)

It does have an audio out (looks to be standard 3.5mm headphone jack) and you can also use the optical out to a wireless receiver if you have wireless headphones.

If your airport has RCA it will work but the new airports don't have RCA maybe the older ones do. But you could get adapters to hook them up RCA to blutooth or optical audio to RCA.

As long as it has a "line level" output, it should, usually stereo mini-plugs. I use these amps with Apple Airport Express units and they work great.

No. Most headphones will not include an airline adapter plug. However, they are very comfortable and the sound is excellent. You can buy a movie adapter plug for $4 on Amazon that will be compatible with any headphone set. Hope this helps. I love my DJ1's! Daniel

Nope, only the Airport Express has airtunes...You can run airtunes if you add one to your network though.

this unit does not have any kind of input or output connections in the back, there is a ipod dock for the older generation i-phone/touch family, also this unit will connect to your regular router, no need for apple router(airport express). i have installed airfoil for windows on my laptop and it works great, the laptop and this unit have to be on the same unit to talk to each other. if the other reviewer is talking about the shiny chrome input jack above the power jack --it is a fm antenna input and not a speaker out

The major difference as you already pointed out is the price. However, I also believe the AirEnabler is much more easy to configure versus the AirPort Express. Lastly, you have the added advantage of being able to use a 3rd party USB DAC and the flexible to use it in your car or for a portable speaker system setup.

I believe it depends on your sound card manufacturer. If the sound card supports surround sound and the jack is equipped to support digital sound, then yes. I have it connected to my home theater system and my Apple Airport Express and it does give me surround sound.

Hi Zachary ... Appears this is not what you want. [I am unclear if an Airport Express can be powered via USB and not its own power adapter.] This specifically is a USB-to-serial data cable with a built in UART chip. There can be very low levels of 3.3v or 5v generated (varies with various models) but that's not gonna drive a whole big device like Airport - more to drive one or two chips on a small board. This is designed for making your USB-equipped PC - desktop or laptop - look like it has a built-in COMn: serial port. FYI, "TTL" means transitor-to-transistor logic levels (meaning 5VDC), and Tx & Rx are the UART lines for transmitted & received serial data at logic level (not +/- 10+ VDC swing used by actual RS232 line levels).

Yes, but...... The audio jack is a POS. Very poor performance. Usually had to hold the audio plug just right. I just bought a Belkin model at Best Buy since the StarTech is just junk.
