Re: [slim] Placement of speakers or dock
Hi, Both thanks for your reply. The reason that I opted to buy a dock, is that (IMO) it's much easier to place 1 dock than to place 2 speakers. My thinking was that for 2 speakers you'd want to be somewhat in the middle of the speakers to achieve optimal listening. Hence, using a dock I know I will not have perfect sound, but I will also not have the difficulty of choosing the perfect location for my 2 speakers... Wrt ceiling speakers, are these powered as well? Currently I'm still thinking of buying a Touch for the kitchen area, that feeds either A5s or ceiling speakers (if they're powered).

Re: [slim] iPeng for iPad or SqueezePad?
I went ahead and bought both... The SqueezePad app has a couple of bugs... My iPad was called Kevin's iPad. SqueezePad named my iPad Player as Kevinas iPad - with an um-lot over the a - very troubling on a number of levels... ;-) I've tried renaming the Player to Kevs iPad to take out the '. But that changes it in some places - but not others - does not change it on the main screen. Also, squeezepad will play internet radio stations for me - but it will not play anything from my local server. It gives me Playback Error No Audio Data found. All of my music is recorded as 320Kbps mp3 files. What's the easiest way to get help from the program author?

Sleevetown even notes This sleeve may also be used to store the entire contents of a typical jewel case including back tray card and booklet for perfectly flat storage.

ralphy;601030 Wrote: Just re-read your previous post. Can you pinpoint when the dropouts started or have they always occured on this machine? Does the standard direct sound version exhibit the same dropout behaviour? I don't do a lot of testing with the ASIO version just a few hours playback using ASIO4ALL. It could be that an update to the portaudio library requires additional config tweaks for ASIO. Does ASIO 0.9-133 drop out as well? This machine and server have worked fine for a long time. I'm not sure when this started happening. A couple of months ago I (finally) upgraded my server-let from win2k to win2k3, but I'm pretty sure issues started after that. Sorry to be scattered on the time, Mom's got Alzheimers and Dad's in and out of the hospital, so my focus gets pulled away from computer audio pretty regularly. I started using ASIO with ASIO4All but had shutdown issues. Switched to a Beringer UCA202 USB sound card, which came with its own ASIO driver and that issue stopped. That was long before this happened. I'll test non-ASIO and see how that goes. BTW, I keep getting basically 'thread is stopped' when I have a dropout.
