I would second the opinion of an earlier poster; even if you end up going with a wired configuration, get the wireless version. I find that there are lots of uses for the portability it gives you: It means that you can move it temporarily if necessary; I occasionally use our screened porch for entertaining, and moving the SB out there with a boombox gives instant music in under 2 minutes setup time. If you want to rearrange the area you listen to music in, it saves you re-running your cables. If Slim Devices comes out with the SB2006 next year that has some fancy new feature you want for your main listening area, you can buy one and move your now pale-by-comparison SB2 into a bedroom or kitchen, again without messing with wires. I have a wireless SBG, and a library that consists mostly of MP3 with some FLAC. I have zero problems with playback, short of microwave interference, which has already been discussed to death.
