The SB, in its current form/function and flexibility, including the Slimserver design/function -- are what makes the SB system among the most enjoyable things I have purchased and used in a long long time.
With that said, I totally agree -- I am a geek and am at home working with computers as I have been since the 70s. For even moderately skilled technology savvy people(my wife fits in here) -- Managing and owning a SB setup, properly, on their own is a near impossibility. I don't think this is a huge problem for Logitech....I hope there are enough of us geeks to sustain a viable product line with the current approach and mindset. With that said, if logitech wants to break out of this niche, and expand to a much larger customer base...concentrating on ease of use should be a major focus. I think doing this by providing a front end to many existing functions, including basic/advanced modes of the slimserver/SB would be a good general approach. I certainly hope they will succeed in fostering broader acceptance of the SB/slimserver system -- as I think then the economies of scale can provide even more functionality and performance/$$ than available otherwise....and of course much more profits for Logitech. -- jt25741 SB3->AR Masters Coax -> PS Audio DLIII -> Cardas Golden Reference XLR -> Sim Audio P5 -> Cardas Golden Reference XLR -> Sim Audio W5 -> Cardas Golden Reference Hi-Mid,PS Audio Xstream Plus Low-> Magnepan 3.6R ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jt25741's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8645 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35881 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
