If "Proper" Stereo is what one is looking for, then Radio with a companion speaker is far from the solution. If the Boom isn't good enough, then use a Receiver and a good pair of self-powered speakers. Costs about the same as two Radios and probably better sound and stereo. And if its the portable thing, how portable are two Radios? I would rather carry my Boom with my DeWalt battery when it just has to be away from electricity but in range of my WiFi. And if this about an add-on speaker that would run off the Radio while portable, how long does anybody think the Radio battery is going to last drive twice as much speaker? Radio is what it is. A mono go anywhere one has WiFi Squeezebox. It is not an all-in-one or perfect solution. Radio is great for the night stand, bathroom, kitchen, spare room, or on the table on the deck by the chairs. By the time all the "requests" or add-on come into play, its just not Squeezebox Radio anymore and there are already better Squeezebox products to pick from in most cases anyway. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67421 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
