I guess it's quite similar to the picture frame idea mentioned earlier in the thread.
A modular setup with separate parts feels like a very good idea where these parts/modules could be easily package into different configurations: For example: 1. Configuration for the audiophile - Display module - Playback module (without DAC) 2. Configuration for the beginner - Display module - Playback module (without DAC) - DAC module - SlimServer HW module If these parts also could be nicely docked together with would be a real interesting and also flexible system with solutions for all price ranges and audio requirements. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41476 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
