The problem with this as a strategy, of course, is that you are relying on someone else with the same peculiarity of set up as you have (there must be something out of the ordinary, as lots of us have had 7.0 running successfully) to report and identify the problem so that someone can fix it. Now if you are happy with 6.5.4 then that's great, you can enjoy the music, but its best not to assume that you will be able to try a future 7.x without making at least some attempt to identify the problem.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter upgrade
rmassey; Sorry to hear about the problems you are having with Squeeze center. In my case it was just like putting on a clean pair of jeans. No problems what so ever.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter upgrade
I'd have to disagree. I cannot get SC7 to work at all on my W2003 server. It barely plays music and then stops. I even let it stew over night and index all the music files. I gave up and went back to 6.5.4. I guess I'll wait for 7.1 or 7.2 and try then. -- rmassey rmassey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1495 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45027 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezecenter upgrade
Hi Guys: I guess the best thing about upgrading to the Squeeze center is that in my system it seems that now my solid state preamp sounds more like a tube preamp. I'm using a solid state pre now to do an A versus B CD player comparison. The remote lets me switch between aux 1 and 2 like right now. My AVA T7ECR pre doesn't have that ability. It's volume or mute. In the next couple of days I'll put my AVA T7ECR back in the loop. Stay tuned!! More info. to follow.

The most likely explanation I can think of for it sounding "better" is that for some reason you are now playing at higher volumes than you were before (maybe some setting is now different?) - that always sounds better.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter upgrade
Sounds the same to me (playing FLAC native). Much nicer interface (album covers!) - and built-in support for Pandora and MusicIP. I love it to death... but the music sounds the same. -- bobkoure bobkoure's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14646 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45027 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Squeezecenter upgrade
Yesterday I upgraded to Squeezecenter from Slimserver. I honestly believe that things sound much better since the upgrade. I'm sure all of you have read about the "digital edge" topic. Most of it seems to have gone away since the upgrade. IMHO Squeezecenter is a better program than Slimserver. Anybody agree? Disagree?
