As an original Squeezebox owner who then purchased a Sonos system (ZP100/120 & ZP90) along with that awful controller I think Im qualified to reply ;) I have since sold the Sonos system and settled with the Squeezebox Classic range.
The sound quality of the ZP100/120 is suitable for background, a good use would be in the toilet or lift! it's terrible. Just taking the analogue output from these player and using a budget hi-fi amp really make a big difference. was able to compare the ZP90 to the SB3, via analogue, same files, to the same amp. To my ears the SB3 was better. Sono's wins on an easy to use solution that is 100% robust (except when the microwave is running), however closed and no "tinkering" or adjusting in the way that Squeezebox can be customised. Sure there are a lot of posts with people having problems here but if you hardwire at least part of your network and run stable software you should be quite safe from gremlins. -- shevans SB 3, NVA P90sa passive pre-amp, NVA A40 monoblock's, Fostex FE206E based big purple people eaters! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shevans's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32505 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72307 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
