Thanks to everyone for the detailed and helpful responses. I did indeed think the Receiver was not available separately, as it's not listed on the Logitech site, but if this is a temporary state of affairs, then OK.
I might have been willing to get a single Duet (to provide the Controller) and then additional Receivers. But it does seems as if the Touch is the best for my purposes, especially if it's true that its DAC is high quality. If it's got better sound than a Receiver, it's worth the extra money, regardless of the Controller issue. I was also concerned that the Touch could _only_ be controlled through the touch interface--in one location I'd want to have it in a physically inaccessible area--but I now see that it does come with a plain controller, i.e. it doesn't require the separate expensive Controller. So I will think about using the Touch, perhaps in combination with my existing Squeezebox 3 (my SliMP3 we'll regard as a museum piece :-) ). In one location there will always be a computer, so there I might just use Softsqueeze with a USB-DAC. -- jest ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jest's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8004 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85124 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
