Hi all,
So after not being able to wait any longer for the next update to the MacBook Pro, I finally upgraded to a top-of-the-line 13" model, which I'm currently really enjoying using a vertical Henge Dock/external monitor setup.
So far the primary annoyance of the Henge Dock that I can see is the issue of sound. I like being able to make/receive phone calls from my MacBook when I'm at my desk, so I've kept a pair of Apple earbuds plugged into the Henge Dock's 3.5mm jack extension. The problem is that this prevents sound from being played through the MacBook's speakers.
I'm curious what kind of sound setup others have gone with while using the Henge Dock? My external monitor lacks speakers. Maybe a bluetooth/AirPlay soundbar is the way to go? And would I be able to output audio to a soundbar with my earbuds still plugged in?
