Back to reviewing the Radio - I love it. The first experience wasn't good, it wouldn't connect to the network on the wired socket ready for it but a bit of fiddling showed the socked wasn't properly wired. I take back all the things I called Logitech and the Radio.
With a properly wired socket the installation was, and has subsequently been, easy. The display works well, if the viewing angle is a touch restricted sometimes, and the menus are pretty logical. After initial cursing the text/number entry system using the scroll wheel is quite effective. Being rather critical for a moment the sound quality isn't Hifi at all; the bass is boomy, there's absolutely no clear detail in the high frequencies at all, just a fizzy mash of noise, but that said the total sound is warm and enjoyable, there's no background noise, and it's perfectly good if you're not expecting too much - my wife is currently dancing round the bathroom to the Jackson 5! For speech radio it's ideal, voices coming through full and clear. It produces a decent volume and doesn't distort if turned up to max. It cost 170 delivered to the door from amazon.de and as such is pretty good value, we'll be ordering a second one any time now. Well done Logitech. -- hellesangel Two Squeezebox 3, firmware 127 Squeezeslave-0.9-65-alsa on same PC as server Squeezecenter 7.3.3 - 27044, running under openSUSE11.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hellesangel's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5658 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70788
