Re: [slim] Lavry DA 10 Crystal Lock
CrystalLock assumes a signal of 44.1 khz within 10 ppm, while narrow lets that range out to 100 ppm. Wide lets it go where-ever it will and lock onto the signal. So if they say the SB3 is operating outside its range of what it can lock onto then what they are saying is that the SB3 signal is a little more than 44.11 or less than 44.09 khz. So a very stable clock is needed for the CrystalLock to lock onto. CrystalLock can also lock onto 48khz as well but within those parameters noted. Try narrow first before going to Wide mode. -- slwiser slwiser's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13961 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40289 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Why? Because of fashion. No other reason. So current ideas of how a record should sound can seep into even the most loyally archival process. We tried not to do too much of that, says Tony Banks, of Genesis, but I suppose part of what were doing is making something old acceptable to a contemporary ear.

There is nothing that could happen on the data delivery side of things that would affect the timing or any other performance characteristics of the s/pdif output. If Squeezebox can't get data from the server it will simply output digital silence until more data is available. In that respect it behaves exactly the same as a CD player would when it encounters a section of the disc it can't read, or when the user jumps to the next track. If _I_ were the one admittedly violating the spec, I certainly would not be so quick to blame the other device! If you'd like, you can send both products to me for testing.

[slim] Audio Problems - Softsqueeze 3.3 on Mac Leopard OSX 10.5
I've been a Slim Devices user for many years now, owning 2 devices (ver 2 the transporter) and also using versions of Softsqueeze on my computer. Since upgrading to Leopard OSX 10.5 on my Mac Pro (dual Quad-core), I've noticed: PROBLEM --- 1) Playback using Softsqueeze 3.3 is very poor mostly from the right-channel. 2) The sound is coming through but is very echo-y and digitally noisy. This effect is HIGHLY noticeable, so much so that I can't listen to it anymore. MY SYSTEM --- 1) I listen to FLAC files exclusively. 2) Softsqueeze 3.3 (on a Mac Pro running Leopard OSX 10.5) is connecting to the Slimserver which is running on a local networked machine, (WinXP) on a Gigabit wired network connection. 3) Softsqueeze GUI is functioning properly and is able to browse, search for music and initiate playback. TESTING I'VE DONE --- 1) Thought it may be the speaker OR audio connectors OR audio card in the Mac. But all other audio playback from other players on this machine perform properly, without noise. This includes loading the same FLAC file over the same network to a different client (VLC player on the Mac), without difficulties. 2) Tried removing and reinstalling the Softsqueeze client, this resulted in the same audio issue. 3) Tried running the Java-build of Softsqueeze, this resulted in the same audio issue. 4) Tried removing reinstalling the Slimserver on the WinXP machine with the latest release build, this resulted in the same audio issue. 5) Ensured that on the Firewall for the Mac (under Leopard) that Slimserver had the ability to pass through it OK. 6) I've noticed no network lag or issues between my Mac and the Winxp machine on my network. In my opinion it seems to be client-based problem with Softsqueeze (3.3) and Leopard, as it worked when I was using Mac OSX 10.4 (Tiger). After doing some research I've noticed that Leopard OSX 10.5 on the mac seems to have a new Java runtime built in. Could that be the issue? QUESTIONS? --- 1) Anyone else have this issue? 2) Anyone have any suggestions /fixes to try?

If you're as paranoid about misrepresentation (either deliberate or it looks just like that picture! mistakes), just get an SB3. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40305 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] I can hear text scrolling on the display
I've had an SB3 for ages, and I think it's always done this but I've never bothered to work out what's going on until today. I can hear a quiet crackling from the speakers which is clearly caused by the squeezebox display updating: it's repetitive and in time with the scrolling speed. When the scrolling stops, so does the noise, and it continues again when the scrolling does. There are bursts of noise when I pause and restart music as the display changes. It's quite quiet and not a killer problem, but it does annoy me a bit, particularly when playing quiet tracks quietly. I tried moving the SB away from the amp and that doesn't help. Oddly, the noises don't get louder as I turn up the volume on the amp (with music paused). Indeed, when the volume gets to 50% the noises disappear altogether, though by then there is the beginnings of a slight background hum from the electronics (in normal listening the volume knob never goes much past 25% of the way round - maybe that indicates the amp and speakers are mismatched? Or maybe theyr'e just loud). Any suggestions? Thanks.. It's an Arcam alpha 3 amplifier if that makes any difference, with Monitor Audio speakers with no model name or number visible. -- mecouc mecouc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=227 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40301 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Homeplug signalling is not at all like ethernet, but what's more significant here that it shares the same power line that also feeds your other equipment. Interestingly, this subject came up a few weeks ago and I argued why homeplug would be _unlikely_ to cause audible problems. But there's a first for everything. It would be very interesting to find it can in fact be picked up by an amplifier. We've seen this with wireless, where headphone amps can pick up 802.11 signals from the air, using the headphone cable as an antenna - the audio amplifier chip can inadvertently act like a radio. -- seanadams seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40301 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] The Squeezebox finally made it to Fry's
This has been discussed quite a bit, but in summary (SB3 vs M1001): Yes, the DAC is much better quality in the SB3. It also doesn't resample everything to 48kHz like the Roku. Roku screen is 280x16, SB3 is 320x32. Roku RAM is 16mb, SB3 is 64MB (more memory == less skipping) Roku only does 802.11b, SB3 does b/g. SB3 can act as a wireless bridge, Roku can't. Roku THD: -90dB, SB3: -93.5dB Roku SNR: 96dB, SB3: 100dB I don't think Roku players can be sync'd. Roku supports Slimserver very poorly, otherwise you're stuck with WMC which is MUCH less useful.

[slim] Future - no future!?
Does sb3 has a future? I'm not sure.I think the problem with the sb3 is, that it doesn't know what it is! Is it a geek device or a life-stile product. The problem (as far as I see it) has become more obvious when logitech decided to ditch the white and silver versions (which by the way looked like a million). Sb3 has the looks and feel of a realy nice life-stile product. So why isn't it sold in a large variety of colours? Is Logitech afraid that the will loose the geek community (many colours means it isn't serious enough)? A record player company like Project (http://www.project-audio.com/) can sell their entry level turntable Debut III in 8 different colours. It doesn't cost the world but would win a lot of female customers. Sb3 will loose the battle against Sonos (and Roku/Noxon) if Logitech doesn't act up. The Transporter does not have the same problem. It is a high end/hifi product and is sold in the to classic colours silver and black. But what about distribution? Will it find it's customer? Sonos is sold through a specialist Hifi chain! The Transporter is sold (in Denmark) primarely through small internet based stores or IT-hardvare stores. Why isn't it sold next to a Rotel, Densen or Primare amp?

you can either split the RCA out with Y adapters, use the RCA and headphone out simultaneously or use a combination of RCA out, headphone out, and digital out (with digital out set to variable).
