I don't have a Squeezebox yet, but I've ordered one. I'm excited, and I
think I'm right to be!
You bet, I love mine, all three of them
Is the Squeezebox capable of playing better-than 16-bit/44.1kHz PCM
audio files without dithering/downsampling? What is
SlimServer+Squeezebox going to do when I send it 24-bit/96kHz WAVs?
I'll have to let someone else answer this part.
I think it will do 24/44.
Can I shunt the audio output of my computer to the Squeezebox? I want
to hear whatever is flowing through the Windows system mixer come out
of the SB3. Possible?
What are you really trying to do?
The SqueezeBox only plays music that comes over its Ethernet port.
Most soundcards (or motherboard equivalents) don't output to the
Ethernet. So the obvious (or trivial) answer is no. Of course,
its a computer and you can probably do something to capture the
output so some sort of virtual driver or loopback on the sound card
and then send that out the Ethernet.
There are plug-ins that let you do things like apply EQ, adjust
gain, etc. and you could probably find some way to apply generic
effects (reverb, chorus, flange, compression) from an audio
toolkit like Calkwalk Sonar, but I like my music straight up.
