I've been using the SB for a few years. I love it when it works. But I would never recommend it to anyone, at least not without a long list of caveats. These last few years have been full of frustrations and opportunities to keep my vocabulary of expletives well tuned.
That being said, I do have to admit it is getting more stable. I have been able to do upgrades without bringing my system crashing down on me. That is progress. And secondly I have tried to replace it a few times over the years with something that is suppose to be more stable. But I find myself keep coming back due to the UI, which I guess I have just gotten comfortable with. A for the flexibility that I haven't found elsewhere. The Sonos is an obvious replacement, but I just haven't been willing to put out the $1K. Besides that little screen on their controller leaves me cold. I am using a WiFi equipped 7" netbook to run SC and act as a portable remote control, and am even thinking of going larger (to save my aging eyes). I like being able to see lots of albums or artists listed in front of me. It often inspires to play something I hadn't thought of playing. Now if you could just come up with a way to stop my netbook losing its connection with my NAS and forcing me to rescan my library. That may be the thing that eventually drives me to Sonos. -- regalma1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ regalma1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6658 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66745 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
