Hi
I'm new to this forum.
I would like to buy a Squeezebox, but I'm not sure about the setup to

I want to stream audio from a NAS unit to my amplifier in the living

So I do not want to use the remote control from logitech.
Also...
Your only control over volume is through the SB3, Receiver, Transporter
- and it's a digital volume control. The more you reduce volume, the
more digital data is lost - sound quality will be is lost at the same
time. Some people can hear the difference, others can't.

A pre-amp would be undesirable, but if I could install a simple
