As far delivery in the UK, we seemed to be deemed as NOT IMPORTANT. Not true. Nearly half our sales are in Europe, with most of that being in the UK. We take the UK as seriously as domestic sales, or anywhere else. We have always shipped direct to anywhere in the world since day 1, and we now h

I'd say this (regarding your concerns)... first, realize few people will post to this list unless it's a problem they're trying to resolve. That is, by definition, this list will tend to display problems. Second, the product generally does what it says it will. The one hardware issue that needs

Don't worry! I have a SB1 and have never had a problem that hasn't been fixed with an upgrade in the software. You have bought an amazing piece of kit and won't be disappointed. As far delivery in the UK, we seemed to be deemed as NOT IMPORTANT. Which is a shame as i think we support Slimdevices

I've not seen SB2 in the UK yet, although in fairness I've not looked too hard as I'm happy enough with SB1 for the moment. I've seen discussion of various issue/problems with the slimserver v6 release, but don't be overly concerned. From my own experience, I've had it running solidly for most of
