Currently I have in use:
1 Transporter + 1 Touch for controlling the Transporter
1 SB3
5 Radios
I had 1 spare SB3, to which I added now as spares:
3 Touch
5 Radio
It is a pity that no Transporters are available any more. I missed to
buy a spare one.

I can also recommend a Synology NAS. I have a DS 1511+ which is very
fast and gives a very good responsiveness for LMS. The current DS 1512+
presumably is even faster.

For those of you who are living together with a spouse or kids, I'd like
to understand a bit better how you would like to use local music

future.

I can not understand this decision and the reasons stated.
An old PC with sufficient power is very cheap and allows very decent
Squeezebox/Logitech Server functionality. Another option are NAS
devices from Synology and similar which also provide decent
Squeezebox/Logitech Server functionality
Finally I have managed to fit my car with LMS (version 7.8.0) as music
source in form of a very stable solution. LMS with Squeezelite of the
Local Player Plugin and MusicIP run on a Fit-PC2i 2GB/2GHz with Windows
Home Server V1 as operating system. The audio-out of the FitPC2i is
connected with

I think the Fit-PC2 is a nice solutions also for other applications. It
appears to be the smallest (101 x 115 x 27 mm) full functional PC
available. It is fanless, uses Intel Atom Z5xx CPU 1.1 1.6 GHz (2 GHz
version was terminated) and has an idle power consumption of 5W and

It was indeed quite a big effort to arrive at this solution. However,
the technical effort as such, when it is clear what is to be done, is

there is a place where it fits

I think that you should upgrade to IPeng on your IPad. Further, you

Perhaps there is an opportunity for ICKSTREAM to add a new service,

Roon is great. I consider to go for it in addition to my LMS-Squeezebox
setup. Squeezebox devices can be supplied directly from Roon with music
streams, but with the disadvantage that the LMS in the network has to be
shut down for achieving that a respective Squeezebox device connects
