The boom has the same degree of finish, for me, but the duet/receiver slightly less so. My bigger concern is the underlying firmware. The Duet has been out for a year and half now, but developers have yet to really warm up to it or figure it out. The SB2 firmware is rock solid in terms of syncing and such, but if the only SqueezeOS device still can't sync playback and is so inflexible in the UI customization next to the previous generation. I hope the new devices rectify this shortcoming. -- sander ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sander's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10737 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64706 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
