Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

I picked up another Touch before the prices went up after hearing of the
product's demise and being unimpressed with the UE line. Really nothing
like it. May set it up at my mom's as a MOG device rather than just
leaving it in the box. She'll love it. :-)

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-10-20 Thread jezbo

I've had just one SB3 for years. But since the announcement of the end
of the product line I've bought a used Boom and a Duet as backup, and
have my eye out for good deals on a new Touch. This lot should last til
some viable alternative system comes onto the market - such an
alternative must have a programmable API for me to use my muso product
on it, and as yet it seems there's just nothing else out there.

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-10-16 Thread Pascal Hibon

Apart from the SB’s in use (one SB 3, one SB Boom, one SB Radio and one
SB Touch) I won’t be buying any spare units. As much as I hate it, the
Squeezebox product is dead since the manufacturer dropped it. If for
some reason my Touch (the SB in the main listening area) would die
premature then I still have the option of using iPeng as an SB
replacement. I concither this route as my current backup plan if
disaster happens in the short term.

In the longer run, I hope that there will be a valid alternative product
available. Besides the fact that I still like my current SB lineup, I
don’t believe that investing in a dead product line is a sensible thing
to do. Technology is moving very fast these days. Who knows what new
technology / product will be available in the future. There is a good
chance that there will be something new that would make the current SB’s
look and feel “aged”.  

And, I’m still too pissed at Logitech to feed them anymore of my money.

I don't think you get 25 years due to the display , maybe if one opens
it up and disconnects the dead display :) using a phone or pad for UI

It's a cellphone'ish kind of display and that kind of longivety is not
in that kind of product, but sure the usefull,life span is probably
prolonged if ones uses blank screensaver as much as possible ,but it

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-09-15 Thread reinholdk

I have 1 Touch and 1 Radio in use.

Since I was thinking about buying another Radio for quite a while now, I
just bought 2 more Radios of which I'll put one aside as a spare. (BTW,
Amazon.de currently offers 20% discount if you buy 2 items from a
selected list of Logitech products.)

But I'm in doubt whether I should buy a Touch as a spare, assuming that
a Touch without any stressed mechanical parts will last much longer than
a Radio with its knobs.

How long do you think it can last? 5 years, 10 years or even more?

In addition, a post in another thread expressed what I'm also feeling:
nsfw wrote: 
 
 From my experience this is what usually happens.  You keep the old
 equipment you love but the features on the crippled device start to make
 you want to move to the newer one.
 Lets say only the newer device supports some new streaming service or
 the newer device starts to support AirPlay.  etc, etc.  Eventually over
 a couple of years the majority of the die hards start to migrate to the
 new architecture and there are very few left behind to hack and create
 whatever is the latest and greatest functionality.
 
Even if it doesn't look so now, in several years there might be an
attractive Touch replacement and Logitech might have added an option to
avoid being always connected to uesr.com for playing local music. Today
we know that the Radios can be upgraded then, while the Touch can not.

On the other side, the Touch is connected to my main HiFi, so if it
really breaks one day I'll definitely need a good replacement.

So I'm torn between buying or not.

To Buy or not to Buy: That is the question!

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-08-31 Thread RonM

I have in active duty:

1 x Transporter (main device)

1 x Duet

2 x Booms

2 x Controllers (counting the one that's part of the Duet), plus the
controller app for my BlackBerry tablet


I have as spares:

1 x Receiver (part of a Duet, but the Controller is being used with the
Transporter and Booms)

1 x Boom (still in the box, has a Europe plug but if one of my existing
Booms dies I will use its plug)

1 x Touch (bought months ago, still in the box)

1 x Touch en route (bought earlier this week from TigerDirect, the
lowest online price I could find)

1 x Controller (bought from Logitech Canada when they had a clearance
sale about a year ago)


I think I will set up all four of my boxed spares (2 Touch, 1 Boom, 1
Controller) with current firmware, and then rebox.  Mind you, I might
set up a Touch to replace the current Duet that's sees occasional use in
the very basic home theatre setup, and then keep that Receiver as a
spare.  I'd use the Controller (from the Duet) with the Touch.

After an initial bout of mild panic and distress, I'm getting more
sanguine about the situation.  I personally seldom use the streaming
services (although I do very much like the CBC Music service, which is
mostly linked from the Internet Radio presets).  It's my ripped library
that I value.

I also am quite sure that I can't see the future, other than to
acknowledge that things WILL change.  Maybe I'll become a champion of
the cloud, and love cloud-based music.  Hard to see, but even five years
ago I didn't foresee where I am now with server-based music.

My situation exactly - initial distress, now modulated. I have enough
hardware to keep going for some time into the future. In fact if SBR to
UESR conversion is reversible, I might try the new UE system.

I'm a little astonished that for all the big words from Logitech about
their passion for music that they've dropped the player range to a
single non-HiFi grade unit!

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-08-31 Thread RonM

I am more than a little amused at myself.  I've just bought a *second*
replacement Touch, and have a surfeit of replacements available now. 
See above.

I remember back a few years I had an Olympus 2200 camera, great little
thing, state of the art at one time.  It used SMC cards, and I heard
somehow that these were being phased out and wouldn't be available much
longer.  So I found a bunch online and bought them.  The camera died,
and I have moved way beyond that early technology.  I still have several
unused SMC cards lying around, must toss them sometime soon.

Then I had a *ist Pentax DSLR, which could use a set of 4 AA batteries; 
it also accepted CRV3 batteries (basically replaces two AAs each).  I
got tired of recharging my AAs and found a bunch of CRV3s online at
cheap prices, and bought a bunch (not the rechargeable kind).  Since
then I've gone through two new Pentax DSLRs, and now have a K5.  They
don't use CRV3s.  I have about ten or fifteen of those suckers taking up
space in my utility drawer.

Better safe than sorry, I guess, but I hope my SB investment doesn't end
up being just as useless.

I've been known to buy a few extra shirts if they fit, and are
constructed well.

I can't remember another instance of buying redundant spare pieces of
electronic gear...the whole thing is kind of amusing.

As a testament to the power of the squeezebox, my wife saw the two boxed
extra Touch units on the floor yesterday, and when I explained the
situation she agreed that it was a good idea to have at least a few
backups on hand.

 I have two Booms, and a Classic3 that have been running for around 4
 years, I guess.
 
 Just picked up a Touch as a backup unit the other day...have no place
 to plug it in right now, but my gut tells me that they won't be around
 for too much longer.

I have a backup Controller I bought a few months back for £70, mainly
because it is the most vulnerable bit of hardware due to its being
handled, dropped, thrown, sat on, smeared with food and othewise abused
by my young family.  I bought it because I foresaw the end of Squeezebox
some time back and was ready to pounce when the clearance sales hit the
UK stores in May this year. It is still in its box because the
Controller is obviously a lot more resilient than it looks!

I am not unduly worried about my Receivers.  They just sit there and
work. Likewise LMS on my Synology NAS.

Hopefully Logitech will make a reasonable sounding and not too expensive
replacement for the Touch which I can buy as replacements for my
Receivers at some point.  By then I imagine the whole family will have
smartphones to use instead of the Controller.

I have no emotional attachment to the Squeezebox line.  The only thing I
need it to do is play my music library, synchronise if necessary and
give me access to a couple of on-line music services.  I have had my
Duet with two receivers for 4 years now and I think it has more than
repaid the £375 investment already. If Logitech UE offers a replacement
that does those things then (if one or both Receivers stop working) I
might just go with it, particularly if it stays a lot cheaper than
Sonos.

Squeezebox may be dropped as a name, but I am sure that the most
important and innovative parts of its technology will live on under the
UE banner - particularly if they are better than, or equal to, the Sonos
alternative. For instance secure multi-room synch over Wi-Fi is simply
too compelling a feature to drop. 

If the worst comes to the worst I will buy Sonos - although I am sure I
will resent having to pay so much for inferior goods!

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-08-31 Thread sander

I have a Radio I only use when visiting my parents as well as a spare
sb3 and an sb1 if it ever comes to that.

I never picked up a touch, because I until recently I was running too
old a server version to support it, and I really don't have room (or
more specifically a room) for it. I was hoping to pick on up on the odd
$210-190 sales, but it looks like I'll be paying $240 or so. I do think
a bunch will start making it to the used markets as the more timid
elements in the squeezosphere give up hope and probably a slew when they
shutdown mysqueezebox.

To me actually the only one that matters most is the boom, because it's
back lighting make it the best bed side device. The rest could all be
receivers or less, as long as they sync correctly and interact with the
various control mechanisms. I hope it lasts a long time.

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-08-30 Thread hvb83

I'm not sure what to do, buy a spare unit or not. Especially since I'm
moving to a bigger house in a couple of months and might find some good
use for an additional player then. We've seen that SB models got very
expensive in the past once the stocks dried out, so buying a Touch right
now won't be a bad investment anyway. 

But it might very well be that Logitech is actually thinking of
releasing a successor to the Touch. At least that's what I'm guessing,
since the Logitech employee in the other thread seems to be rather open
on many things, but seems to have some sort of NDA in regard to a new
Touch or any other new products that may or may not be released.

At this point I have to little information to know wether the new
platform will be something I'm willing to go for. I don't use mysb.com,
so that's easy enough for me (though I realize it's a big pain for many
of the people here). I didn't do much with the plugins available either,
so that it becomes more closed is not so much of an issue either. The
main criteria will be if Pippin is able to create a app that can control
the system in a way like we're used to now. 

The main issue for me seems to be: can Touch devices that were released
during the SBS/LMS-era be firmware-upgraded to work in the new UE-era or
not and if so, will you still be able to use iOS/Android devices as a
means of controlling them, without being tied to the apps that Logitech
releases themselves?

I have a Radio, SB2 and Classic in use, and another boxed Classic as a
spare (I also have an SB1 that is in storage, but don't really consider
it a spare given some hardware/firmware limitations).

I'm torn between picking up another spare and biting the bullet --
trying to sell off my equipment and looking for alternatives. Beyond
local library playback, I'm concerned about Logitech's ongoing support
for online services, which I've come to rely upon to some extent and
which do require periodic updates/fixes.

I'm going to let the emotions subside a bit before I decide.

I suppose you can get copies of the firmware then use to update with an
SD card in the touch.  In fact, can anyone point me to where one would

2012-08-29 Thread epoch1970

I have 3 running SB3s, and one Boom. And 4 spare SB3s (gave one
recently, how stupid is that!). The one thing I miss is a spare Boom… 
But if things turn really bad there is still friends and family with
some players.

2012-08-29 Thread Jeff Flowerday

I was thinking of buying a spare Touch.  But, the newest version of
JRemote for iPad looks really nice.  I'll start playing with a dedicated
little PC running J River Media Center again.

Fortunately I don't sync players so I have more options...

I have an extra Touch which has been upgraded to recent firmware but
after that been put back in the box.
Also have a Boom, a Duet and a Classic which are powered on but I'm not
using any of them for playback at the moment.

If anyone in the U.S. wants to buy a Touch or 2 Radios as lightly used
spares (~6 months old) then send me a PM.

OK - I just got another spare Touch...I'm finally beginning to feel like
I'll be able to weather this storm, and come out OK.
