That is really unfortunate. :(
I also have a Radio, a rev 7, and I've noticed that, despite the glowing
reviews from back when the Radio was new on the
Finally I did another comparison, this time both Radios plugged in.
Other conditions as before: same firmware, same LMS settings ('smart
gain', 'both channels'), side-by-side comparison with positions swapped,
sync'd playing, volume level manually set to the same number, both on
wifi and both

wouldn't expect that one could hear a difference between different

Why would you not expect that?

Did you try swapping positions of the 2 radios while testing?

If the second one is the result of 3 full hardware revisions over the
first, then I would think it easily possible for there to be a
difference in loudness between them at a given numeric setting.
That's what begin to think, but more in line

Yes. With the same result.

I measured the two radios with a free SPL meter app for Android and it

But I definitely *hear* a difference between the two.
And I'm not the only one. My teenaged daughter who probably has better

I'm using the new one w battery, so I compared both running on battery.
I'll try both plugged in.
Do you think it could even make a difference if the battery compartment
is empty or not?

When comparing my old SBRadio with my new one I got the impression that
they sound slightly differently.
I did a side-by-side comparison, playing them sync'd with both set to
the same volume manually. Both run the same firmware version, of course,
and both were connected via wifi with my LMS.

I have found a volume difference between my two radios, purchased a year

Yes, the new is brand new. Didn't expect that it indeed might need some
time to burn in. Thought already about adding a comment like this -
meant as a joke - in my post.
And no, I don't have a SPL meter (didn't even know what you meant by
this). Just looked around and

Btw same firmware in both radios ?
Yes, as mentioned already. Both run 7.7.2-r9663.
