Hi,

I need help with working around a networking issue. My A8 network card seems to be broken. I can't connect even with a cable to my router. The cost of fixing this is about €300, so I've been told instead that I can connect it to airport express and this way work around the network card. Can anyone help with how to set this up? i.e. how would streaming work then? 

Thanks,

D.

You can connect anything via the RCA input on the back. It will no let you change tracks via remote or on the unit.

Your options are Bluetooth, airport or chromecast audio. Chromecast audio, as it is known on the forum, is my favourite and recommendation Stick out tongue

Agree - the CCA works well with the BS8/A8.

But - if you prefer using AirPlay - the APE should do the trick as well.
