Probably too many different levels of amplifier quality for a small company like Slim Devices to make that move. Now, a large amp/receiver manufacturer could license the technology and integrate it into their products -- from low end to high end, but I doubt Slim has the resources to do it themselves at this point.
An alternative for you would be powered speakers. There are some very high-quality ones on the market, depending on how much you want to spend. The amp has gotta be somewhere, it might as well be the speakers as opposed to the Squeezebox. Devices incorporating many of the features of the Squeezebox are beginning to hit the market. Some have their own storage, as well. Sonos, Roku, Yamaha and Cambridge Audio come to mind. Right now, the technology is in its infancy and seems to be attracting mostly techies and audiophiles. Expect it to become more mainstream as the household pc becomes a true full-function media server. That was a recurring theme at the recent Consumer Electronics Show. -- Kyle ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kyle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2541 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20304 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
