I think for $200 (yep I got two during last month's sale) the SB is dandy little control unit. The speaker wire is run, but I have no intention of purchasing Nokia web pads.
The alternative would be to use 2 of the unused wires (assuming I could do this with a differential transmitter) in the cat5 bundle to send the digital audio down to my amps with converter dongles like PoE uses. All my Cat5 is home run, so this is doable, but then I'd need outboard DA units which can get cost prohibitive. And.... while I'm at it run power over the last two wires in the bundle, although I think most PoE systems double up on the conductors. And lastly.... like I said, I'm spoiled. I want this thing all running within 10 minutes of hooking it all up like the SB. -- rock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rock's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4845 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22695 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
