JBL LSR305 or ELAC Debut B6?

[DJtheAudiophile]

Looking to either purchase JBL LSR305 or ELAC Debut B6. Which one would be better with for my needs? It will be connected to my iMac and HDTV. What would I need to connect it to my iMac and HDTV? DAC, Cables and etc?

It appears the JBLs are powered whereas the ELACs are passive.
You will need an amp/receiver for the ELACs.

Ive not heard the JBLs,but the ELACs are nice sounding,warm with non-sibilant highs.

Assuming your comp has 1/8"output you'd need something like this

It doesn't. What DAC would you recommend?

Everyone seems to like the Schiit Modi multibit (Mimby)
you might want to do some research on it as to compatability as I do not use Apple products.
