Title: Logitech Squeezeboxes for sale
Post by: ST-Rider on November 06, 2014, 08:30:56 AM

Didn't think to post here until after I listed them on eBay.
I have a Squeezebox Touch on there for a $261 Buy It Now, and a Squeezebox Classic on there for $150 Buy It Now.
I'm willing to offer a discount if anyone here wants one of them.

I have remotes for both of them, but no original boxes or documentation.

Ha, not a stupid question. They're streaming media devices.

The products are discontinued, but they have a sort of cult like following. The classic has a Burr-Brown 24-bit DAC, and the touch supports audio with sampling rates of up to 192 kHz.

I'm not as polished of an audio snob as most folks here, so I can't really tell why all that is important, but I do know that they sound really good. ;-)

Here's a wikipedia article about them:
