Buy whatever Squeezebox product you want to use. Buy a Vortexbox appliance (or create one with the free download if you have an old PC and can follow directions). Plug in the Vortexbox and either feed it CDs or transfer your files to it over the network. Turn on your Squeezebox of choice and follow setup.
Enjoy the music. The Vortexbox is pretty good on power and fairly low noise. If you build your own, it can be a little better on power and you could pick a totally fanless solution. I can't think of a single ripping program that handles Classical properly. Ripping was created basically for MP3s which are mainly Pop and Rock IE Artist/Group, Album, Song. Classical is just never going to fit into that mold. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67637 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
