So I ended up with a portion of our music library on the household server, and started wondering whether there was any way to feed it into the main stereo system. I never even considered that it could replace CDs for serious listening.
That's when I investigated the Squeezebox (I'd vaguely heard about it before, but hadn't taken any notice). I speculatively bought a wired-only SB2 in April 2005 to see what it could do, figuring I could always sell it on for not too much of a loss. It was a revelation - truly one of those "road to Damascus" moments when some aspect of your life (in this case they way we listen to music) changes radically. It quickly became obvious I was going to have to rip all our CDs in FLAC format. A Transporter was added in December 2006 (the price of which was more than covered by selling my high-end CD player and preamp) and the SB2 was relocated to the kitchen. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53831 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
