3B+ runs LMS very well and works as a player well too. Some people like the 4, because the ethernet and USB paths are separate, so those that use a USB connected DAC to the rPi4 seem to like this potential improvement. I have one instance of LMS running on a 3B+ and it's very snappy and works well with about 115,000 tracks. I don't use the USB out for a DAC (this 3B+ uses a hifiberry DAC+ hat instead to feed a preamp). *Home:* VBA2.5 4TB -or- rPi4B-8GB/pCP7.0/4TB>LMS 8.1.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 8.0.x>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>foobar2000 *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir3 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, Material Skin, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* -Ripping-: dbpoweramp > FLAC; -Post-rip-: mp3tag, PerfectTunes, TuneFusion; -Streaming:- Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113512 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
