Hello. Congrats on your launch! Was considering Sonos recently, but was
delighted to discover what Slim Devices has been up to. Then I refresh
the site and find the Duet announcement -- sweet! Having the controller
will significantly boost the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) for Slim
Devices! Glad I held off -- now I can't wait for this stuff to be
available...
A few questions though, as I try to sort out all the offerings:
1. Does the Controller also work with Transporter?
2. If so, does that mean the party mode thing would also work with a
Transporter and a Receiver?
3. Is there any limitation on the size of a music library that the
controller can deal with?
4. Am I right in thinking that I could take the digital out of the
Receiver (or an SB3) and run that through my Yamaha RXV-1500 letting it
do the D/A conversion? Will that likely be better than the analog out of
the SB3 or Receiver? Will I still pine for the Transporter?
5. I am considering loading my library (and a bunch of other stuff I'd
like to see stored safely in a RAID array) onto a Buffalo TeraServer
(or similar) NAS. Any special trick to get the Duet to work with that?
Is the Buffalo a good choice or does someone have positive experience
with an alternative?
Sorry if some of this is borderline OT -- just trying to figure out
what I want to build toward (and what I can live with while waiting for
the Audiophile Fairy to bring me a Transporter...). Thanks in advance
for any help!
