Using Apogee With An Avr Options

[aldrahn]

im planning onbuilding my first daw
an imac 2.4ghz and adding 2gb of crucial memory
and logic 8 for 900 pounds
an external harddrive for 65 pounds
then adding an apogee duet for 330 pounds

i have a harmon kardon reciever and acosutic energy evo 5.1 speakers which cos a fair bit so im hoping i can implement my home cinema with making music on my mac

i dont plan on using many outside instruments such as guitar or recording vocals for the music i intend to make

the i mac has an optical output/input than i can connect to my avr
but im curious if that negates with apogee

can i use both at the same time, ie be in logic creating tunes with the added sound of the apogee coming through my avr systems speakers

or would it make more sense to get a firewire audio interface wih its own optical inputs, ie a 130 pounds cheaper presonus firebox

thanks if anyone can help
