Here's another approach to the problem of the long cable runs but I'm not sure of the implications.
What if the centrally located amp were an A/V receiver with a built-in DAC and multiple digital inputs. So instead of using long runs of RCA cable carrying line level analog signals, long runs of coaxial digital or optical digital cable were used? Would this solve the problem? And if long runs of digital cable are okay then perhaps a couple of external DACs located near the amp might also be a solution. And yet another work around: instead of SqueezeBox Classics what if several Duets (receivers and controllers) were to be used. All the receivers could then be centrally located right at the amp and just a controller (and charging cradle) would need to be located in each room. Just throwing out ideas to see what sticks. -- ralphpnj Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels -> Snatch -> The Transporter -> Transporter 2 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/jazzfann/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68131 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
