Having listened to and used a Squeezebox 1 for several weeks before exchanging for my current Squeezebox 3, I wholeheartedly urge you, if finances permit, to get a Squeezebox 3.
For me - the biggest advantages over Squeezebox 1 are... Better Display - not just because it's pretty, but because in it's default text size you can read it across the room. Bigger Buffer - I haven't experienced any dropouts with SB3 - I would get them frequently on Squeezebox 1, when I was performing a task that was HDD or CPU intensive on my Slimserver computer. Squeezenetwork - I think it's outstanding to have an internet radio player that's not tied or connected to my computer. Unfortunately, with Squeezebox 1, everything has to run through Slimserver/your computer. Better Sound quality - I wasn't able to do any blind A/B testing, but to my ears and on my system, it sounds better than SB-1. Good luck, and enjoy your Squeezebox purchase. -- Cleve Two-channel system; McIntosh MC2205 amplifier McIntosh MAC4100 receiver Klipsch CF-4 speakers Denon DR-M3 Cassette Deck ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cleve's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2048 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18691 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
