Slim Devices Duet

Ar_t - It is imperative that you upgrade the software on the computer and the firmware in the receiver and transmitter (remote). They have been doing lot of bug fixes at Logitech/Slim Devices. Last time I did this upgrade, it worked perfectly. They have a special Beta download site.

I got it to work without doing any of that. Factory reset, etc. had no effect. I did try the latest s/w (7.2?) on my computer, and it would not work.

I have had mine for about a week...love it. I had it up and running in about 15 minutes. I have found a ton of free streaming stations on the internet.

I have been wondering about the quality of the DA converter and the opportunity to improve the sound. I just went down to the neighborhood hi-fi store and they setup a AB comparison between a Duet and a Duet running thru a Bel Canto DAC3. The difference was so slight that you could get more of a difference from positioning a speaker properly. I could not beleive it and the sales guy couldnt either.

It is a great piece of kit, I am going to get a ReadyNAS and put all of my cds on it, then into storage.

I am using one into an ARC Dac7. Great way to get into the music server world with your own computer. I also love Rhapsody and internet radio with the Duet. Rhapsody is a VERY cool access to all the recordings you can think of, and learn about a ton of music similar to your favorites.

Dbarger,
I'm impressed by Rhapsody too - channels, music and everything is streamed at 192k and to my ears sounds really really good!
