Pippin, Just want to say thank you for the good work. I was using ipeng when it was just an plugin for the squeezebox server and when your ipod app first came out, I bought that since the first version. When you first added the playback function, I didn't think that was very useful as I was mainly using the ipod for controlling all my other squeezebox devices. Recently, I found out that Logitech had discontinued the squeezebox line and I can no longer get any squeezebox in my local area or anywhere in the world for a "reasonable" price. After days of search, I realised that ipeng may be able to turn an ipod into a squeezebox receiver. I then pulled out my old 1st generation ipod and enabled the ipeng playback option. When I connected it through a charging line out cable to my Audiolab amp, the quality is surprisingly good! Sound quality of Flac playback is as good as a mid-level CD player. Better yet, on the server, it appeared as just another squeezebox player that I could control remotely.
Now, I no longer need to worry about not able to get another squeezebox hardware. When I need a new player, just get an ipod and pick a nice dock or connection to fit the need. Much more freedom for hardware combination. To me, Logitech had just handed over one of their great product to Apple. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Honva's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14948 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85502 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
