Dear Jeff,Thanks for your inquiry. Since the MCR610 has the Airplay feature, it is set up to be able to stream music wirelessly from an Apple device, not a PC. You can, however, connect your Dell to the MCR610 through either USB or RCA cables and enjoy your computer music that way! Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance with your selection.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Yes I have Win 7 and the Marantz shows up as a little icon next to the volume in iTunes. This selects between the computer speakers and the Marantz. Then play what ever you want from your library. There is also an app for your smartphone, I believe works with any smartphone or tablet to stream music to the device. Cool for being lazy and just grabbing your phone and playing some tunes without getting up.

It should be compatible with any system that supports USB sound devices. I use Windows 7 and Linux and I did not install anything to have my Samson work. I can't imagine why/how Windows 8 would be any different. The materials mention something about a USB iPad connector; not sure if that would work with an iPad Air or not.

At the present I believe it only works with iPads, iPhones, and Android powered devices. A windows app is rumored to be in the works, but as far as I know, it isn;t available as of yet. It does work great on my Samsung tablet.

I may have misunderstood the question. Yes, you can listen to airplay from your iPhone through this receiver. Powering the receiver can be done with the pioneer app.

Hi. I believe that you may need to purchase an adapter for your PC to be able to connect the yamaha receiver because most of the PC desktop especially the old ones don't have an audio input. You can contact the manufacturer to ask for any suggestion on what you can get for your PC. thanks

Doh! Figured it out. The problem was that I was syncing my iphone only via cloud. You've got to connect the phone via usb to the computer one time, so the USB drivers can load, for the phone to be recognized by the Win 7 network. Now, if I can only find the volume controls on the iphone app!!

Not directly. You would need a powered external amplifier with a digital input (from the PC) and analog output (to the speakers). Most modern receivers provide these interfaces. So, if your PC happens to be nearby your home receiver, you may be able to play your PC audio with these speakers. You'd need to route your PC's digital audio output to your receivers audio input. Then connect the speakers to the appropriate analog output channels on the receiver.

Yes. There is a product called AirFoil. It allows you to stream to any airplay device with no problem. I have 3 of these speakers and can play to them all in sync from my windows 7 pc.

No. You would need an adapter. I use an iRig PRE to connect to my iPad and PC.IK Multimedia iRig PRE for iPhone/iPod touch/iPad and Android Devices

It depends on your receiver and what protocols it supports. This device only supplies WiFi Networking to the receiver, it doesn't add functionality to the receiver. If your receiver supports AirPlay or DLNA, then yes. DLNA is not supported natively in iOS, there are servers you can run on your iPhone. If your receiver supports AirPlay, then it should be easy. Although, you may need to re-configure your router in either case to allow connections over those protocols.

My set up is much further apart than yours so you should have no problems. Remember the transmitter unit has inputs for Digital fibre and co-ax, or phono/RCA connectors. The receiver unit has RCA/phono outputs. You will need a mains power socket and adapter at each end (iPhone/USB chargers worked for me), you will also need a USB to micro HDMI type cable to power the receiver end.

I don't know about iOS but I use an Android app. There are two mini rca jacks for audio out.

I've haven't used it with the Dell Venue, but it has worked with other PC tablets. You might ask the folks at Bear Motion.

This should work fine with the Widows 7 desktop and laptop. It will not work with the iPhone or iPad, for that you will need a printer that is already AirPrint capable or a print server that supports AirPrint. Last I looked, I was not able to find any print servers that would work with both Windows and iOS -- you can get either, but not both. If you leave your PC on all the time, you can use an application called "Fingerprint". You iOS device will print through the FingerPrint application on your Windows computer, and then on to the print server software that is running on the Windows PC. That is my current configuration. Hope this helps!

What I know is that it can connect to Android, Windows 8 tablets and iOS. Simultaneously paring with different devices should not be a problem although I have not tried that.

Not sure how you would use it with an iPad or iphone. It needs to connect to a USB receiver.
