Although I voted for sub $500 here, I doubt that is actually the route I would go down. First of all I haven't totally given up on Logitech's UE route yet. I still think it likely that they will produce a higher quality player with RCA analog and digital output stages. I know the control system and plugin support is will be poor relation to the SB line, but for me that is less important than player synch and a proper "ecosystem" with full support for radio and third party apps. Mind you, rather than going with UE or some unsupported SB system, I think it is more likely I will go with Sonos especially as I am very unlikely to get anywhere near its 65,000 track limit. To replicate my current system in Sonos kit I would need 2 Sonos Connects (to replace the Receivers) and a ZoneBridge - altogether around £600 which is not much more than two SB Touches. I will probably leave this to until it was totally essential (either the hardware fails or Triode's Spotify and BBC iPlayer plugins stop working) as it would seriously irk me to replace my more capable SB setup with a considerably less capable Sonos one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheLastMan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96660
