Since I run a Linux box at home to serve my myriad Squeezeboxen, I agree. > It staggers me that anyone can contemplate building a new music playback > device that doesn't support gapless.

Please note that I said "yet" in posting the good things it doesn't do... at some point in the--hopefully--no too distant future you'll see updated features like the above. There is a lot of work to be done on improving the environment around the Simple Audio Roomplayer, but I can say this: they *sound* amazing. The whole thing is really well designed, in terms of the audio path, and the amplifier in the Roomplayer I is really, really good. The first time I heard them it was on a 20+year old set of Vandersteens and it sounded amazing. Simple also produces the Roomplayer II, which has no amp so you can use it as just a transport. -=> Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JimC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91090 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
