How To Use AirPort Express To Stream Music
Instead of having to spend
time setting up a wireless bridge to work with a sound system as well as
connecting to your router, you can use Apple Airport Express to stream music
from your computer to your stereo. But wait? Isn’t AirPort Express a router? How
can a router stream music? Well, that is the beauty of AirPort Express that
being a router, it does a lot of other tasks, which include streaming music.
So, if you love listening to music, which everyone does (can’t recall anyone
who doesn’t), then you can make use of your AirPort Express to stream music.
Set up is much easier than
creating other similar wireless bridges, and you can be enjoying your music in
minutes. However, you need to make sure that you have the following things with
you.
1. A computer with iTunes
installed
2. Airport express
3. Wireless network
4. Stereo with jack line
Once you have all these
things, you can proceed with the next steps, which are also not difficult to
perform, but you need to ensure that you follow the steps in the same order in
which they are given.
Steps to stream music with
the help of AirPort Express:
1. Plug Airport Express into
the electrical outlet closest to your speaker system.
2. Connect the Airport
Express to the "Line Out" plug of your speaker using a cable usable
by the speaker system.
3. Turn on your sound system.
Be sure to set it so that it plays music from the "Line Out" channel.
You may need to consult the manual on how to do this for your stereo.
4. Open your Airport utility
program. Follow the instructions on the program to connect the Airport Express
unit to your computer, and to stream music.
5. Open iTunes on your
computer. At the bottom of the program, you should see a panel that allows you
to stream music to your stereo.
That concludes the steps
for streaming your music files onto your devices with AirPort Express as the
medium. That doesn’t seem difficult at all, does it? However, there are still
many people who won’t be able to perform the steps or experience issues while
streaming music using AirPort Express. For those people, there is just one
thing to do, i.e., take help of AirPort Express setup and support providers
because only professionals can assist them with the process. When you are done
with the process, you can stream any music from iTunes and enjoy wireless music
on your devices.
