How can you connect a Duet to a 5.1 or 7.1 surround system? If so, will it work as such or just plain stereo?
Trying to define which Apogee product will allow me to play HD music (not mp4) from my MacBook Pro to my 5.1 surround system. I have not been able to have a satisfactory answer on whether if you connect the Duet or other product will result in plain stereo sound rather than 5.1 surround. Thanks. S.

The Duet is an Audio interface & does not have MIDI connections .
The control knob will send out midi control values , but if you want to connect MIDI devices you need to a buy a USB midi interface .
You may want to check your MIDI device as many MIDI devices now have a direct USB connection so you don't require a MIDI interface .- Answered by MH from Sydney

Does this product work with the new MacBook Pro, since there is no longer a firewire 400 port? Is it also compatible with OS 10.6?

Yes Apogee supply a Firewire 800 to 400 cable , as well as the older Firewire 400 to 400 cable , so there is not problem connecting to any current Mac products .
The Duet is compatible with OS 10.6 " Snow Leopard " .
Apogee posted a update for OS 10.6 on Sep09 which also is compatible with 10.5.8 "Leopard" too .- Answered by MH from Sydney
