No, Tracy, the AirPort Express does not need to be physically connected with your AirPort Extreme router. It is wireless. So you just join it to the network. And that's it. Use the Mac utility if you're on a Mac. Good luck. Mary Sent from my iPhone On Nov 26, 2013, at 9:58 AM, Traci Duncan

Thank you for all the guidance so far. A question on the airport express… Does it need to be physically connected to my apple extreme, or is it a stand alone product? Our apple bay station is upstairs, can the airport express be downstairs? Also, how about airplay apps that may come along

Hi, Iyou have an airport extreme or another airport express, it can be used alone. Just plug it in where you want it, and use the airport utility to connect your new airport to an existing wireless connection. Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore

The Apple TV can serve the same purpose as the Air port express and may be a better option for straight audio applications. It may depend on how you want to use the device. But with Apple TV you can also screen share and put your audio from all applications to the device and still keep

I received a Klipsch G17 Air for my birthday and am thrilled with the sound quality, very clear with adequate bass. It lists for $550 but can be had on Amazon for $164.90 with Prime shipping. Airplay is great because you get to keep your VoiceOver audio on your device while sending the rest to

Hi Tracy, If you don't have an existing stereo or surroundsound system, then you don't need an airport express. You can just buy the airplay speaker and get it connected to your Wi-Fi network, and you should be good to go. If, on the other hand, you have a stereo system that you like, you could
