I got one of these Sabrent WF-RADU devices. Incredible price, quality build, nice embedded web frontend (!!!), chimes into the speaker when the network is up. I have installed, very easily, the latest firmware, v2.0.7 ONE problem: it doesn't sync with the other regular (shall I say licensed?) Airplay devices I have. I have connected it to my TDK soundcube, which is a regular speaker with line-in and, handily enough, an USB power port. Until now I had my Airport Express connected to the soundcube. In Airplay Bridge, I couldn't find an audio delay setting to fit the player. It was swinging ahead or behind my Libratone Loop (both devices are wifi.) So I fired up iTunes on my mac, and I can't get this device to sync. This time the delay is totally stable, but it plays early by half a second or so. I tried syncing it to the integrated speaker in the mac to the device, same issue. I tried accessing the device from my wireless LAN or direct through the access point started by the device, same issue. Basically, as far as I can tell, this is a good product for the price, but I would advise to stick to the manufacturer use case which seems to enable Airplay audio in a car, without sync. Don't expect a "squeezebox replacement" or you'll be disappointed. Still you can use it at home, as long as you wouldn't hear 2 sources at the same time. I hope usc95 (or the manufacturer via a firmware update) can prove me wrong.
