Re: [slim] New modified SqueezeAMP batch?
Hi there! I built up my 3 new SqueezeAmps and so far so good while using them to play when connected to unpowered speakers. I haven't checked out the other outputs yet; that's on the to do list. The IR is working great, which is super fun! One question - all 3 of these new SqueezeAmps report out ~8V on the LMS Settings->Information page when plugged into a 12V power supply. My SqueezeAmps from the previous run (which were boosts, I think?) all report ~12V on the same interface / same supply. I'm guessing that's expected and maybe a difference between basic and boost, but thought I'd check in just in case. Other than that the only difficulty I had was the initial connection to the SqueezeAmp. For whatever reason my windows laptop, when connected to the SqueezeAmp's squeezelite wifi just would not resolve the 192.168.4.1...or one time it did but then it just sat with a spinning wheel as it was trying to load up the page with the wifis available locally. I don't recall this happening last time, but it's also a new laptop. I forgot to try the "laptop won't connect to airport wifi" trick of using incognito mode so no idea if that would work, but instead was able to connect to it on my phone by joining that wifi (with the default password) and then selecting the notification that I needed to log in. So, if anyone is struggling, that worked for me. Also, I noticed on the printing on board that the order of the polarity for the speaker wire connections is different than the last run (or maybe that's a boost vs basic thing?) - I assume the labeling is correct?

Re: [slim] New modified SqueezeAMP batch?
Thanks Philippe, It makes sense and on off works, but Im not sure if I got incorrect top plate or it hasn't been changed after adding IR sensor.. Unless I'm being thick here.. When I position on/off switch above WiFi I don't have full access to speaker terminals . which makes me think it should be other side but there is IR sensor on a way :/ Its no big deal anyway .. I can live without on/off switch :) Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using Tapatalk 3x Squeezebox Touch, 4x Squeezebox Radio, Squeezelite (RPi 3B with HiFiBerry DAC+Pro on OSMC), Material Skin Apk, Squeeze Commander, Logitech Media Server Version: 8.2.0 with Material Skin (Docker in DS218+) Jaca's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58187 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116084 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Does Anyone Have a Slimdevice for Sale?
I too must defend the Duets. I run two Duet receivers on wifi and they've been rock solid. I did have to replace a power supply for one Duet receiver and a wifi card in the other one. For me the key was a wifi router with good radios like ASUS has. One caution on the Squeezebox radios is they have issues with wifi 6 routers but the Duet receivers work just fine on wifi 6 routers, at least the RT-AX86U which has turned out to be the most reliable router I've ever owned. Main system - Rock Solid with LMS 8.3.1 on WHS 2011 - 2 Duets ( both WiFi, farthest unit gets 60% signal strength and always works since new power supply) and Squeeseslave Cabin system - Rock solid with LMS 8.3.1 on Win10 Pro - 1 RPi 3 Model B (WiFi) /Hifiberry DAC+ Pro/PiCorePlayer and Squeezeslave Squeezebox Boom - "At Large" player around both home and cabin Headphones and car - Android phone/Bluetooth w/full library on MicroSD card - PowerAmp music player app (similar to Material Skin) w3wilkes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22973 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117234 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
