Hi,
I want to get some speakers thati can connect to the 24 led display! I am looking at the lacie FireWire speakers! Will these work? I want to be able to dock my MacBook pro to the screen with the speakers connected to that to save extra wires,
if not can any1 advise some that will? I jus don't want to having more cables to constantly connect n disconnect!
Many thanks

Hey there,
These speakers won't work with the 24" LED Display as they require a FireWire port, and the 24" LED Display only has USB. If you wanted to use these speakers you'd need to plug them into your MacBook Pro.
However, I would recommend purchasing something like this (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic), the Griffin iMic. It's basically a USB Audio Interface allowing you to ouptut audio via USB.
It is kinda expensive, however, search for USB Audio Interface into the likes of Amazon and eBay - and you should find something under £10/$15.
Hope that helps you out.

This (http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?pid=11112) would seem too logical.

Yep there are a few USB options - that is what you will need.
I wish the ACD had an audio out. :rolleyes:
