You can go backwards on the wheel and it will start with the Z's. Thus you will have ZZ Top just as quickly as you have the artists starting with A. -- Dean100 Dean100's Profile:

I have found that to be a fast way to get to the Zs, but I have not found a fast way to get to the middle of the alphabet. I do notice some acceleration, but its top speed is a bit slower than I'd like. Right now it's a little difficult for me to navigate to a particular artist quickly, but I've

(1) We primarily listen to playlists. Currently there is no way via the controller to cause a receiver to play an entire playlist. At Just hit Play when you're on the playlist item (not actually viewing the playlist). Or didn't I get your point? (2) The albums are sorted alphabetically

With respect to the playlist issue, there is no play button on the Duet controller, hence the problem . . . . There is just a pause button. With respect to the artist-album sort, it sounds like this may be addressed in a future release. -- miked

Ben, I'm glad I wasn't the only one! I like to think I'm a pretty quick-to-it guy, but sometimes I have middle-aged moments. Overall, my initial time with the Duet has been very very very favorable. It's just really slick, and very polished. Now I have to save some pennies to get one more
