I used to think only speakers and headphones needed burning in (which
I've seen many times) but something happened recently which has
surprised me. On plugging in my new SB3 a few months back I was pretty

Much appreciated.
I've been running the Super Squeezebox since May (how time flies!) and

Can't wait to add that "Jive" remote!!

ALAC (Apple Lossless) which in reality is stored as an MP4 (.m4a) but I
