Best way to hook up yamaha HS80M speakers to 17" 2011 Macbookpro?
Greetings people,
I am interested in setting up a home recording system and I'm looking into getting a mixer/audio-interface and a good set of monitor speakers.
The computer I intend to use is the latest 2.4ghz Quad Core i7 Macbookpro 17"
I am thinking of purchasing a Presonus Studiolive 16.4.2 (http://www.presonus.com/products/StudioLive-16.4.2) to be my audio-interface/mixer (Sticking with firewire since i'm using a mac) and as for monitors, I am thinking about getting a pair of Yamaha HS80M (http://usa.yamaha.com/products/music-production/speakers/hs_series/hs80m/) and a HS10W (http://usa.yamaha.com/products/music-production/speakers/hs_series/hs10w/?mode=m odel#tab=product_lineup) for a subwoofer.
Anyone with experience in using the abovementioned products? Any recommendations or advice?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), 17" Mac book pro 2.4Ghz QC i7
