I play all my music from my laptop via my home cinema system, just connect from headphone socket to phono left and right input and all works fine.

You'll need a Y connection, headphone to phonos.. sometimes if both the laptop and the amp are plugged in you can get a buzzing sound, this is caused by creating a loop but can be eliminated using a "ground loop isolator" such as This one

You might not get a buzzing sound, I know I do, I run my laptop through a minidisc walkman before it gets to the amp to get rid of the interference. But my laptop was stupidly quiet, so I was using the walkman to boost the sound, it was only later i found it buzzed without it.. so check first, else you'll look a tit if it buzzes on stage and theres nothing you can do about it (the sound goes away if you unplug the laptop)

Yeah, you just need a mini jack to phono leads and plug it into aux or line in on your amp......you can't plug in directly into your speakers unless your amp is build in to them??

or you could be really posh and get one of these

then just wirelessly broadcast your tunes to whatever room you want

Looks a good piece of kit the Mac one. Right, will i be able to get a lead from the Mac bit of kit straight into a Pioneer AV box for the sound to come out of the tv speakers.
Im assuming if i get a lead into the sound box on the tv then i will be able to play music from wherever can pick up the wireless signal??

if 4 days ago was christmas day then I'm pretty sure he's out of luck either way.
