    As the OP said, if you add a cheap (but very hi-tech) Chinese made external DAC (which accepts optical or coaxial inputs) to this you will have yourself some seriously high end matching hifi for not very much.

    I have the DIYEDEN (now called Musiland) SVDAC06 which I managed to pick up for £85 inlcuding postage from here last year (it costs a lot more elsewhere but for some reason they sell this model much cheaper). This thing will rival most cd players for sound up to £2000.

    Add yourself a class D tri-path amplifier (find online reviews of the Trends Audio amp for example) for about the same price and you've got a system that no one else you know will be able to match. I replaced my £3000 cd player and amp combo for a Chinese made DAC and Tri-Path Amp that cost £150 and feed music from my laptop or ps3 and it's better.

    Try it yourself and you won't look back.

    Having orderred mine, I did a bit of a search on the nets and some people seem to think the Logitech site gets stock of new items before other shops and some people think they get things later. Just hope this will be out through Logitech direct first, fingers crossed!

    This code applies to the Transporter as well

    Brings it down to 1,200 GBP which is just about 1,999 USD. Reasonable, since it is usually overpriced when brought over here.

    Just had my squeezebox duet delivered today. It is amaaaaaazin.....

    Easy to set up, great sound and access to 8 million songs on Napster for a £5er a month - bargain

    This is probably an enormously stupid question but what is the advantage/difference of the squeezebox et al over using a standard interconnector between your laptop/pc and your hi-fi amp? Obviously there is a wireless element, but doesn't the squeezebox have to be wired to a amp/speaker somehow?

    The Duet and Squeezebox equipment are amazing additions to your music set-up and you probably need a while to fully understand and appreciate what it is and how to set it up to it's maximum.

    I bought a Squeezebox Boom a few months ago then purchased a Duet system with the very expensive colour controller and have just about got everything working well but there is quite a learning curve. Plug and Play it ain't. If you can invest the time setting it up, sorting out the Squeezebox software and adding all the applications it will revolutionize your music and listening habits.

    I have mine running through a DacMagic2 connected to cheapy Tannoy M2 speakers and the sound is superb. Nice warm sound, no trashy harsh noises and the ability to navigate internet music stations, your own music collection or podcasts with the ease of the Ipod style scroll wheel.

    I think if people understood these devices better and what they could do for your music enjoyment they'd never look back.

    Logitech have great customer support for these things as well.

    This one may also be of interest due to be released on 1st November

    the £169 version gets you DAB + FM Radio + Wireless and Wired access, you don't need additional software running on your PC to access your music files either.

    Nice, but wireless only and i use wired, so not so great for me. Have squeezebox 3, great bit of kit, just wish you could get a proper instant on mini box to run the server component.

    I think you can plug a usb drive direct into the Squeezebox Touch if i have that right.

    I love my Squeezebox three, not sure really what this would give me (apart from the obvious touch screen functionality, and USB) as the specifications look very similar.

    Good price though, and would recommend anyone to get one who does not own a Squeezebox already as they are awesome bits of kit.
