I own both the Duet and Touch. If I had to choose between the two, I'd get the touch. The touch has a larger display and does have the flexability to control other players if your setup expands. As others have mentioned, if you own an iPod Touch or an iPhone, you can use it as a controller. Personally I like using my iPod Touch with iPeng better than the squeezebox controller.
The Touch does have an IR remote, so it can be controlled via a remote, just not one with a screen on it. The duet can also be a little quirky in the setup and some people encounter difficulty setting it up. >From a sound quality perspective, they are both the same to my ears, though I haven't done any "critical listening" to try to hear any differences. I'm very happy with both products, but if I had to choose, I'd choose a Touch. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch, iPeng on iPod Touch.
