Hello,


I have an Airport Express and a Pioneer Amplifier, but between them, there is a wall and like 10 meter. So, I don't want to break my house off, so is there anyway to connect them so I can stream Airplay to my amplifier (Wireless connection from the Airport Express to the Amplifier?)


Thanks!


Kind Regards,
Jérémy

Extra info: I have a Pioneer Amplifier VSX-820

One solution is to get another Airport Express (#2) that extends your main Airport Express (#1) wirelessly. Then you can place your AE #2 right next to the amp (assuming the wireless signal is good between the 2 AEs, which should be).

Hello,


Thanks for the suggestion, but isn't there any more inexpensive solution?


Kind Regards,

Is the express the only wireless router you have? If not just connect it to your receiver and use it's bridge function to connect to your main router. If not you could get another router. This is a solid choice. If the express is the only piece of hardware you have you are going to have to spend some money, it's just a matter of how much.

If you decide you can go $100 you can get a refurbed 5th gen Airport Extreme, that's the route I went.
