In receipt of a Squeezebox Duet

I was thrilled (really!) to receive a Squeezebox Duet from the nice folks at Logitech Streaming Media Systems (formerly SlimDevices). It really is a great gadget and, having been testing the Squeezebox Controller (aka “Jive”) for a while, it’s good to get my grubby mitts on a Receiver too.

The Receiver is just a little box that makes noise - like a traditional Squeezebox, but without the display - and it’s good. It “Just Works” and, for a gadget itching to be mainstream, that’s pretty important. Her Kateness was kind enough to be the Non-Geek-Guinea-Pig and did all of the setup. And it wasn’t that hard either.

It does present one problem though: the new Receiver is in the living room, the older SB2 in the kitchen. So what to do with the redundant SB3? The study might be a good place, but then I’ll need to buy some Audioengine A2’s to go with it. :-( ;-)
