Right now I have my ipod hooked up to my stereo via a cable. I want to know the best way to eliminate this and use my pc to play the music on my home stereo without running a wire from my pc to the stereo. Can this be done wireless and if so, how is the quality?

Re: How can I play mp3 on my stereo without using my ipod?
Looks like we're both looking for the same answer.
I believe we need a wireless router, which is connected via cable to the PC. Then we need a Wireless Receiver attached to the Stereo via a cable to receive the signal from the wireless router. Someone told a friend it can be done, I'm trying to find out how so I can do it.
Good luck. -

An alternative method worth mentioning might be a wireless headphone set up with the transmitter connected to your PC and the receiver connected to your stereo.Comment

I did it with an Apple AirPort Express ($150) which acts like a wireless router and a Wireless 108Mbps G PCI adapter ($40) in the desktop.
1. Just plug the AirPort Express into an electrical outlet (surge protector).
2. Plug your network cable (DSL or Cable) from the modem into the AirPort Express ethernet jack.
3. Plug the stereo jack cable into the AirPort Express and then into the Line-In or Aux-In on your home stereo.
4. Install the AirPort Express software.
5. Open iTunes, at the bottom-right of the window, click on the "speaker" settings and choose "AirPort".
6. Budda-Bing!
Your DSL/Cable is now wireless from the AirPort Express to your PC via the wireless PCI adapter in the desktop.
I'd recommend the 108Mbps G Wireless Card for better performance over the 54Mbps G Wireless Card.
