So, I figured I'd put on Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors" for a little "background music" while I did some work on the laptop. Didn't happen. Two tracks in and I'm locked in on the listening couch beguiled by these little gems. Next thing I know, it's been three hours and not a bit of work done. Arghhh!
Still can't get over how damn fun this little system is.
Guess I have to get a cheap streamer for background listening so I can get some work done.

Currently listening to music on Spotify Premium via my Android phone, through a £15 Google Chromecast widget. Amp is a Nait 5i, and speakers are nSats hooked up with Naca5..... Sounds great.

Adam: Haha that was going to be the next purchase but seems redundant so going to save up for ND5x or NDX
Damo66: I am going to try that. If I don't like it my daughter can always use it for her Spotify. Are you using the front input (mini to mini) or mini-headphone to RCA to connect it?

Michael I've hooked up the Chromecast device using a mini jack to RCA cable as my amp is a 5i (non italic) version and as such has no headphone jack on the front panel. I'm just using a cheap cable from Richer Sounds.
The Chromecast is only about the size of a Jaffa Cake and is easily hidden behind the black boxes.
