Customer Review: Seamless addition to a Squeezebox Duet system
Summary: 5 Stars
Although some folks have been able to set this unit up as a standalone system, its intended use is as an extra "receiver" (speaker driver) for the Squeezebox Duet system, which is a bundle of a Squeezebox Controller and a Squeezebox Receiver. That's the system I have.

Since my original system is working well, I did not want the auxiliary unit to disrupt things. I did want the capability to play different program material in two different rooms, or to synchronize the program stream on occasion.
The SB Receiver works admirably along this line. I removed it from Logitech's elegant package, connected it to sound outputs and power, and watched it configure itself to my WPA2-protected network in about one minute. No sweat! Since network passwords are stored in the SB Controller, I did not have to go through the tiresome routine of entering the password using the vertical scroll-wheel method.
I gave the SB Receiver a new name using the Squeezebox Server software, which at v 7.4.1 is working very well on my ReadyNAS Duo network attached storage device, and all was ready to go.

The SB Receiver is located in our living room, which is a bit constrained for space. We wanted to put neither the cash nor the space toward a full stereo receiver setup in this room, so we purchased the Z-2300 powered speaker system, also by Logitech.

Although this is most often used as a computer speaker system, it is THX-certified, and includes a large (and heavy!) subwoofer control unit. Paired with the SB Receiver, it provides deep and rich sound in our room, and cannot be turned up all the way without hurting our ears! The SB Receiver feeds a clean signal to the speakers using the standard RCA left/right outputs (its twin in the other room is using the digital optical output, and it is hard to distinguish the difference between the two).
The only issue I've so far encountered with adding a second unit is that it complicates the Controller interface just a bit. There is no one-button shortcut to switch between receivers; one scrolls and selects, iPod style. This becomes, again, tedious when performing such operations as synching/desynching receivers. It's more of a Controller issue, though, and does not detract from the performance of the SB Receiver itself, which is responsive and clean.
In truth, this is something that would have barely worked at all five years ago, and it is impressive that a wireless product like this can perform without interruption, and even carry multiple program streams, with so few problems. I recommend it highly.
