Question 4

Can this hook up to my iMac via wifi so I can listen outdoors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it is easy. I use Airfoil to route any audio from my iMac to these speakers. If your wifi is strong enough outside, the Airfoil application will just recognize them, and you can send system audio or the audio from any specific application on your Mac.
