I agree with the "applicable to multi-room setup for grownups" sentiment, but I also agree with Nonreality's point. Looking back to my bachelor days in my apartment, I would have been interested in the SB for all of the reasons mentioned above. The single location benefit as I see it isn't so much the computer speaker thing, but being able to control your music through either a remote control or a simmple web page. The line-out of a PC could easily be connected to your stereo, but you would have to interact with a media player to play your music. Back in my bachelor days, I had a single stereo with 2 sets of speakers - one set in the living room and the other in my bedroom. I could picture hanging out in my bedroom and controlling the music either through the PC I had in there or with the SBC as I lay in bed reading a book. At the time, it was just so cool to load up the CD changer with 5 CDs and have it shuffle tracks on all 5 discs. Oh how technology has progressed!! -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 1 duet, 1 receiver.
