Re: [slim] How well do the DACs hold up nowadays?

I think given the fact that a 'modern' external DAC can be plugged into the SB's, it's kind of a moot point whether the internal DAC's have held up. Fizbin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58734 Vi

Re: [slim] Players to replace the Squeezeboxes? Scared after a storm took out my devices

Since I jumped into the squeezewagon just about when Logitech pulled the cord (and they never really had much distribution here in Mexico anyway) I had to deal with this issue since it's inception. I bought Android boxes. Specifically, I bought one Minix X5 per TV set (http://www.minix.com.hk).

Re: [slim] What actually goes to my Transporter?

FLAC and Apple lossless are native, so I guess I am OK. I hope it recognizes m4a as Apple lossless. jarome's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1223 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/show

Re: [slim] Now the Squeezebox is dead, what would your next system be? And why?

I also just play local FLACs and don't use streaming services much except the BBC and occasionally other radio stations. If I wanted to use one or more streaming services such as Qobuz, Spotify etc I'd have to pay for that anyway, well over £100 per year each. I probably wouldn't want to pay mu
