I have Sonos and squeezeboxes and I ended up using more the
squeezeboxes. Sonos sounds better, sure but the controller and UI is,
imho not at the level of LMS + iPeng. I like the radio for their display
as bedclocks and the boom for the sound (I modified my booms so they
have built-in batteries,

Same here...in no small part because the one Radio I bought only lasted
a few years before self-destructing. All my other Logitech hardware
still works.
Since no one could repair the radio, I "replaced"
There are many other reasons to stick with squeezebox other than just
the SB Radio.
How many other systems offer the availability of playing high resolution
tracks (down graded on the Squeezebox Radio), wi-fi and smartphone
control, remote access, open source code, and the most innovative and
Its the Touches that keeps me in line and LMS and iPeng .
Felixibility functions and UI still beats Sonos

What keeps me with LMS/Squeezebox is replacement costs with Sonos are
just way too high. I have two radios, a boom, a classic and two hacked
pogoplugs running squeezelite as my primary players. The costs for two
play 1's, a play 3 and three Sonos Connect's would be $1750 with no

Agreed, and with the Squeezelite development on Raspberry Pi the system
still has a lot of life left. There may be other solutions with
different "bells and whistles", but nothing

bernt's Profile:
I love the flexibility of LMS. Especially the handling/organizing of my
collection (No, I haven't given up having my own collection yet despite

Honestly, in my opinion, the Radios are my least favourite players. That
said, I own two, one in the bathroom and one with several battery packs
for our garden deck. Our Nnightstand players are two Booms. One with a
subwoofer attached.
New setup:
- ASRock Ion 330, Lubuntu 14.04, LMS 7.9,
I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the SB Radio, I would have jumped ship
and switched to Sonos a long time ago. Unfortunately, Sonos does not
offer a comparable product. Everyone in my family has a SB Radio on
their nightstand. We love these little boxes and would hate to give them
up. I think
