Example a real squeezebox has a alarge buffer about 30 seconds ,but the playback controll comands bypass that down in the player so your never bothered when using the player . and the small adjustments needed for sync is also done down in the player . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
