The SB2 also remains my favorite product, the Touch is a worthy successor, the Boom a great add on. The Duet was a mis-step - as I got a replacement battery for the controller I realized the concept is not made to last. That will probably be the last time the battery is available. :( My mother

First of all, I'm glad to have found this Community. Have been reading for hours and days, before I bought my SB products, and now that I have them I still keep reading and learning. (You'll note I wrote SB product*s*). You see, just a few days ago I bought a new Touch. Connected to my vacuum

I've stated it in other threads, but it's true that my Duet and Boom have changed the way I listen to music. Music has always been important to me, but just having local stations and a few CD's kept me from having it on all the time and, more importantly, exposing myself to more depth and

Fantastic thread. I wonder how many other products can boast such a thread. For my own part, I still have the feeling that I came to the party a bit late - I think my first SB product was an SB3, probably about 6 years ago, although I do have a couple of earlier models that I THINK I bought off

Slim Devices changed my life. I have always been an avid listener, LPs, CDs, radio, and short wave broadcasts. Slim Devices brought short wave listening up to high end stereo. I listen to BBC, France Musique or Radio Orfey from Moscow at CD quality. I have a few SB2, SB3, Radio and Touch. I
