Re: [slim] (Vaguely) Audiophile alternative to Transporter and SB+?
Personally I stockpiled SBTs on ebay so have a never ending supply of touchscreen bit-perfect digital sources to feed to whatever DAC takes my fancy. :) Right now it's a Mytek DSD192 (also scalped used from Ebay for a sensible price). Prior to that it was a Naim Supernait built-in DAC. I would agree that earlier Naim gear had a very different sound from most "hifi". I heard it described once as the "big mono" sound, it really drives the bass and produces a lively immediate sound, without emphasising the "detail" that actually -is- in there, you just have to stop dancing long enough to listen for it. Later Naim gear is moving more mainstream sounding in fact (which is why they're now winning awards..). On the "bit perfect" story above. Weirdly I discovered that the SBT won't output 66khz sampled audio. Crashes every time. No idea where that track came from, but there you are; I have to resample it to play it. Other than that I have no reason to believe that any digital source is any better than this. Even a Chromecast Audio - which has a dreadful analogue output, makes a perfectly fine digital source. -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

I would definitely look to stay ahead of your storage requirements by buying fewer larger drives.

Re: [slim] CDs rapid Demise
I think they rarely go full scale DC for any number of samples on any recordings, they are pushing it too hot but it's compression not "distortion" as such, (though we choose to call it such because we are pedants..) so wouldn't see that level of distortion.

Believe it or not you will find it hard to match the flexibility of the SBT in terms of supported formats and bitrates even now, ten years or so after the end of production. The only significant advances in the last few years (because anything digital is more or less essentially perfect already, and so much better than vinyl or tape it's not even amusing) is class D amplification (which will mainly improve efficiency rather than performance), and room/response correction.

Re: [slim] What are your long-term SqueezeBox solutions?
I don't think so. Straightforward though I agree it is the sheer overwhelming quantity of stuff on every screen is what puts people off these things. Even if you don't have to change anything at all, presenting that many choices scares the living bejeezus out of anyone who isn't techie. Just to add your music folders is a mission without an awareness of where *not* to click and let's face it even to get there you have to be in the small minority of people who actually want to run a home server. Most don't.

Re: [slim] Replaygain vs EBU R128
I don't see the downside.. for non critical listening replaygain in album mode is perfectly good, and when you feel like properly listening to something, turn replaygain off. Bingo the music data is the same and sounds the same as it did before the file was tagged. The one and only pain in the ass wrt post-processing files is that the "new music" menu option is based on the file time stamp.. so you mess up all the time stamps and you now don't have a clear record of when that music was "new". -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

Re: [slim] What are your long-term SqueezeBox solutions?
I've had no problems getting acceptance of the squeezebox setup. A few reasons. 1) all the CDs went in a box in the loft... and I sold all the CD players! ;) 2) universal remotes make switching the audio on easy in each room (even for the TV to ensure the TV speakers don't get used) 3) we don't have any Bluetooth speakers 4) found a simple SB control app (Squeezer) and it's a no brainer I will admit I'd not consider giving my parents a SB setup, however, no matter how much I think it's a great system.. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

I also found the squeezebox build on Joggler wasn't so stable for long term playback. My touch will stream iPlayer live radio for days and days without hiccup, but the touch would regularly fail and require a power cycle (same if it was streaming local media tbh).

Re: [slim] Windows 10 updates stop me listening to my music, help!
One option: https://sites.google.com/site/picoreplayer/home This is an OS image that can run LMS and a squeezebox client on a raspberry pi, including managing the storage (external USB drive). There are other such images. This gives you server and client in one tiny low powered box. Or you can buy a pi and add the OS and install LMS yourself. It's a no brainer if you don't want to run another full size server.

Re: [slim] IMPORTANT: Stop forwarding your LMS ports to the internet!
Personally I would kill the idea of streaming flac to mobile devices and just bandwidth limit the client in LMS. 320kb MP3 is undoubtedly good enough when out and about. I would guess the limitation is insufficient pre buffering, whereas internet video players would be more aware of the requirements for this. Flac is as you say about 900kbit, maybe just over 1mbit so shouldn't really be a big issue. Note that HD video can be streamed in about 1.8mbit and still be bearable. Probably less, but still more than a flac stream. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

Re: [slim] Say it ain't so, Joe...no more CDs?
Depends on the player. If the new player honour the gain tag then great, but it was not a core feature.

Re: [slim] Say it ain't so, Joe...no more CDs?
I've found most ICE systems have awful unresponsive UIs when it comes to browsing large numbers of files on USB sticks, tbh. And there's no search, obviously. And their format support is awful. I have everything ripped to flac for home use and a mirrored archive of ogg vorbis files for use outside the home. Despite ogg being a FREE codec most in car players won't actually play them. Even if you get the right format there are sometimes annoying revision or bitrate limits. Why Ogg not mp3? Well apart from the better sound quality per bit the main reason is Replaygain support. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

Re: [slim] Transporter heat
Ok so maybe it doesn't use a Linux kernel, but it runs some software on a CPU in the same way (except it's called firmware because you have to flash it to a ROM chip!). The Touch and Radio both use a Linux kernel, of that I'm sure. Principle is the same - they use a few Watts and this translates to heat while everything is ticking over. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

Re: [slim] Logitech should resurrect squeezebox
Actually I suspect you'll find a lot of people on the forum are quite happy with the status quo. The Pi/DAC/open source LMS solution is very compelling. Any reignite of Logitech official Interest could well see them grabbing that back in-house. At the very least it would likely be based around the UE platform, not LMS. I would, however, love to see a tidy updated Squeezebox Touch type device with Bluetooth apt-x, airplay, a software Chromecast endpoint and a nicer touch display would be awesome as a converged streaming device. I just don't think that's what we'd get if we asked for it. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.
