It has been mentioned often enough, the power supply is critical. In both my systems I still use the Touch with sw mods (a.o. Toolbox from soundcheck, 192kHz enabled,...) with a medical grade linear power supply topped off with modern Teflon capacitors and a decent power cord. Equals IME the PS Audio Perfect Wave.
Logitech Squeezebox v7.9 works with Mac Yosemite
Well, I panic'ed after upgrading to Macintosh Yosemite and found that the Logitech Squeezebox Server (LMS) would not start.
Turns out that I was using the last official version from Logitech v7.7.3, but you need the latest user beta v7.9 to run on Yosemite. (I did not try v7.8).
See downloads.slimdevices.com and forums.slimdevices.com
BTW, have any of you found a good replacement for the Squeezebox Touch?
I still use it partly out of momentum but also, because (a) my two units synchronize beautifully - I can run two systems in two different rooms playing the same music - and (b) I am VERY pleased with the built-in DAC for bedroom use, while using a digital out to a higher quality DAC in the living room.
Interface is fine for my purposes (playing iTunes music database), IMHO, although it's better to drive it with an iPad using one of the apps.
