Hi Scott,
You asked: does the iTunes volume need to be fairly low otherwise the
music will distort? When I first connected it to my stereo and turn on
the music it was distorting so I did a command down arrow in iTunes
and now it sounds fine.
TK: Go into the iTunes Preferences, select the Devices pane and check
the box that reads something like "Disable iTunes volume for Remote
Speakers". Your computer will then send a regular level signal to the
Airport Express and what you do with the volume on your computer will
not affect the volume on the stereo. The SoundCheck is under the
Playback pane.
Scott: Also When I choose multiple speakers in the pop up menu at
the bottom of the screen, after selecting multiple speakers there's
nothing to choose from.
I want to hear the music via my mac and airport express.
can this be done?
TK: It can be done but the Multiple Speakers dialog is not
accessible. I find it better in most situations to just let the music
play out the stereo anyway, then I don't have to mess with volume
settings on the computer to hear VO vs the music.
Scott: Can the volume for airport express be set separately so I
don't have to keep readjusting the iTunes volume all the time?
TK: If you have a remote for your stereo, you can simply adjust the
music volume from it.
Later...
