IMHO Moode sounds different to LMS on pCP (this is MPD v Squeezelite) I prefer LMS because it suits my user case, and I have learnt a lot in attempting to stave of the old grey matter failing :rolleyes: I know someone who prefers Moode because he says it does not annoy his "perfect pitch" curse. I know several people who prefer Squeezelite via Moode Of Volumio I have little to say, except that some folk on other forums use and like it :confused: Nothing beats the first Dansette really :):) ronnie Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115794 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SB3 appears dead
Adding my appreciation for this forum and the community for steering me in the right direction (also big thanks to Logitech for keeping the Squeezebox alive). Yesterday, my trusty Squeezebox SB3 was dark. I'd seen this problem before, and usually I just unplug and plug it back in, but this time it stayed black. The Toslink in the back did light up red though. I checked the power supply with a multimeter, and it had power, so I RULED THAT OUT. I started hunting around for an alternative, but as there is none, I considered finally building a Raspberry Pi + Hifiberry DAC+ RCA media streamer to replace it - I'll get around to building this eventually. Due to the chip shortage, you need to fork out $100 just for a used Raspberry Pi on eBay, because they're out of stock for months. So today, I thought I'd see if there's some miracle boot sequence I can use to revive my old friend, and I tried Add (+) and plugging in, then tried 1 and plug in. Then I read this thread, and at first was a little confused at the mention of "power supply" - wondering how there can be a power supply in the unit as well as a power adapter external - then realized y'all were talking about the 5VDC external power adapter failing (to me I had ruled it out, so my thoughts were internal). So I dug through my wall warts and found a perfect fit at 5VDC and 2A, and it came back to life. I also read about the capacitors for the audio channels - maybe someday I'll replace those - for now I use the Toslink. The offender: GROUP WEST Model AUT 05 1600; 5VDC 1600mA center positive power adapter. Symptoms: Powers down to black screen (blank screen) overnight. The normal, warm unit is cold. Unplugging/plugging doesn't reset it, but the red Toslink light still comes on. 37024 +---+ |Filename: SqueezeboxPowerSupply.JPG| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=37024| +---+ benslim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6047 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49785 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Market for used Squeezeboxes?
I'm contemplating a move to Sonos. I bought a couple of Sonos One speakers to try and so far am impressed with the sound quality. The ability to control with Alexa and the inclusion of Apple Music are big plusses for me. I'm curious about the market for used gear. If I decide to go all Sonos then I want to sell the following, all in very good working order: 2 SB Touch 1 SB Boom 1 SB Radio If anyone has any thoughts on where the best market would be (here in the forum, eBay, etc?) I'd be happy to hear them. I am in the US (New York).
