I actually never use the CONNECT. I bought it to play with (to see how the SONOS system worked, controller, etc.) and to make sure it was setup and working so I could make an *immediate* transition to it for my wife should I lose mysb.com on day (I'd tell her to put the preamp on a different input and go to the sonos app on her iphone and select SIRIUSXM and she'd be back in business even if I'm out of town....of course, she wouldn't have sync with other rooms but she'd have something connected to the main system). Once in a blue moon, open the controller on my PC, update the SONOS software if needed, etc.). I never tried to sync the Connect with another Sonos (as I don't have one) and never thought about combining it with my squeezeboxes. *Home:* VortexBox 4TB (2.3) > LMS 7.8 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.3) > LMS 7.8 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.8 > Squeezelite *Spares:* Touch(3), Radio(3), Boom, SB3, CONTROLLER *Controllers:* iPhone4S & iPadAir2 (iPeng8 & Squeezepad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win7(64) laptop *Files:* ripping: dbpoweramp > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102809 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
