do speakers work with an iMac ?

Does an iMac have a 3.5mm stereo input jack? If so, then they will work. If you're still in doubt, contact the manufacturer.

Hi Helene unfortunately I don't have an iMac, I have and HP. Your best bet is to email or call their customer support (very helpful) techsupport@cyberacoustics.com, or give them a ring at 360.823.4100

Absolutely. I use it with Mac OSX. You may have to go into the sound pane in system preferences and select "USB" for input and output, but it works beautifully.

One of the A2's has a 3mm audio receptacle on its rear panel (earphone jack) as well as analog L & R audio wire inputs (which can be used with legacy receivers). You plug a double-ended (male) 3mm wire into the master speaker & connect the other end to iMac's headphone out. That should do it.If the A2's are going to sit further than a few feet from the iMac, then acquire a pair of Audioengine wireless (AW3) units for greater flexibility in siting. Audiodengine wireless transmitters work very well actually.

From one of the reviews, "Note that these speakers have a 3.5mm jack input which works fine for my iMac. They do not connect via a USB cable." A "3.5mm jack input" is what is commonly called a headphone jack. Cables with a headphone jack would be what is needed. Check your TV manual to see if the TV has a 3.5mm jack output and for the types of speakers your TV will accept. I'd also check the specs for the speakers to see if the speakers can handle the level of output from your TV. I admit knowing very little on this subject, but these speakers seem to me to be for desk top computers and laptops and such. A TV seems, to this amateur, to be a lot to ask of these speakers. You might also check the TV manufacturer's website for info. Here's a link to the speaker manufacturer's website. http://www.geniusnet.com/wSite/np?ctNode=116&mp=1

Oh, sorry :) I don't know specifics about the apple adapter, but it seems like sometimes you have to go to the settings and actively select audio out from your speaker menu on the mac. I have an HP with a dock so it is a little more confusing, but I have heard of people needing to go to the audio menu and toggling it on. Get a cheap one from amazon and try mesing ith the settings. If you are still under warranty, it might also help to talk to a genius. They might have some ideas that don't involve the iTV. I think straming from your mac would be faster.

Yes it worked with my sons' laptop, but you needed a speaker connection cable to get sound. It did not work with my Mac as suggested.

They come with a 3.5mm plug to plug into the audio jack in the computer and a USB plug for the power. I've never had a Mac so I don't know what they come with. But if you have these two jacks on your Mac it should work. After seeing the other post I disagree. I think my music sounds great. The separation is great. You can hear the stereo from each individual speaker.

I don't have a Mac Book but I only use it for my phones. I have dedicated speaker's for my pc. But I can't see why it wouldn't connect. That's what it does.

Thanks for the question. It is my understanding that so long as your iMac has Bluetooth or a headphone jack you can connect to the speaker. I use PC/Android so I don't know for sure but everything I read about the speaker said that is the case. I have had no issues with connectivity with my devices. It is a great speaker. Hope this helps.

I bought my TP30 to use with an iMac. The amp plugs into the iMac via USB. Your speakers connect to the amp using regular speaker wire. You have change your computer settings to output sound through the USB port (instead of the internal speakers). I have my TP30 connected to a pair of AudioEngine P4 speakers. This setup is fantastic! Great sound from a small package.

When I connected this speaker box to my Apple iMac, I wasn't impressed with its sound, compared to the internal speakers on my iMac.

That's what I'm using it for to my 2007 MacBook. So as long as the iMac has the combo headphone/toslink jack then it should do the trick. I suggest making sure to get any dust/debris out of the combo jack first as dust will interrupt the signal.

If your iMac has a bluetooth connection it should have no problem working. It's a pretty generic bluetooth device.

I use Windows, so I don't know. However, if your Mac has a microphone jack then I don't see why it shouldn't work.

You would need to go from your mac into a power amp or a stereo and then into the speakers.You can buy some inexpensive amps that would work great from http://www.parts-express.com/These speakers are great everyone who has heard them are blown away by how good they sound.

I have an imac, I'm not sure if it's thr same for all computers, but I click the blue tooth symbol on the top of the screen and then hit the bluetooth button in the speaker the computer should locate the speaker which will come up as ip76 (thats what it says on my mac). I hope it works for you.
