I'm considering linking up a Mac mini to the upstairs beocenter6 23 . I gather this would be useful. Has anyone here done this?

Quite a few threads on the topic. If you are talking about a newer MacMini your challenge will be getting the mini-display-port interface connected to an available port on the BV6. Mine connects to the BV8s HDMI - however your BV6 has only a DVI ?

With the DVI there isn't a way of doing it, even with an HDMI converter. There are no RGB sound connections so it looks like your buggered. I've just gone through the same miserable job of installing a Windows pc for one of my boys and I'm trying to connect it to a Beovision 8-26.

When it's complete including the useless Windows 7 software, and anti virus software, I could have just bought an IMac for the same money!

Saying that, there is an audio out which you could just plug into your speakers
