Hey guys, right now I have my quicksilver hooked up to my home stereo for listening to tunes on the far end of the room (it's really not all that far), but I also have a set of apple pro speakers I use for gaming and occasional tunes. I also have some headphones I use at night. Is there a good way to do switch the outputs via software? I'm sick of pulling the tower out from under the desk to unplug things, replug things, etc.

There has to be a better way....

Rob,
you might want to give Detour a look-see.
Here

To accomplish what you describe you might need to invest in a Griffin iMic to use in conjunction with Detour, but I think what you want is possible. Good luck!

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.
