Can anyone confirm ALAC is natively supported and does not require transcoding (so can be handled by the SBTouch itself fed from a USB drive)? This concerns the sale order I just placed and probably should have thought about first.

Ha. You guys convinced me to buy one. Left the Squeezebox side a few years ago and pretty entrenched in the Apple camp, but thought a USB drive+SB Touch+JH3A-JH16 combo might make a good small bedside high res setup (don't currently have a way to play above 16bits). Worst case it will be an internet radio streamer. I got the same message. Assume it means a future email. Hope it means a future email.

My only suggestion having gone through it recently, is to test iPhone interfaces in person. They can vary a lot. From number of buttons to navigate folder structure to radio only GUI, iPhone only, or both. Also how often you'll be using apps other than iTunes for music (as that head units GUI isn't like to be used and you'd need iPhone control). Afraid there's a reason some of these electronic companies haven't come up with a successful DAP, and piggybacking on other companies GUI can make it even more convoluted. I wasn't looking for phone capabilities, but on the music front I avoided some of the higher-end choices as I preferred Sony's iPhone/iPod interface. After awhile I was using WunderRadio, This American Life, etc. apps often though so it became less an issue (as long as you can control from iPod/iPhone). One Sony negative, it will begin to play a playlist track automatically. There's no way to shut this off. So if I want to listen to a TAL show, I have to let iTunes take over, start to play, pause, then back out and launch the other app (while the first track continues to display on the head units display). And that was one of the better UIs! Also keep in mind most (all?) won't support the iPad. EDIT: Got my Sony CDX-GT740UI also from Crutchfield. They even have an occasional video showing UIs. For example: Sony CDX-GT640UI - Additional images and video

Thanks guys. Very nice walk around town tonight. Mobile hifi has its advantages. Need more tests before deciding on fit. Been fooled by customs before.

Me likey.

Best to keep one iPad per library around, just in case.

Shit, that song sounds bad with the JH13s. Sentiment is all out of wack.

Various tests.

Anyone have a link? I don't see anything on the Null site for JH. ... and 13s arrived a few minutes ago.

Or keep on eye on Andrys Basten (kindleworld) on Twitter Posted the last batches on 12th and today. Alternatively a certain monkey may have a Kindle bundle available.

Damn it. Too many great box sets.

A real loss for underground comix and Cleveland today. Obits here, here and here. Pick up a copy of American Splendor or watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBv3TzH2jao. Play him off Toby.

Anyone know the part number on this? I assume this Beyer pad is the one recommended around this time ('05-07) for Grados and Senns? Is it this one? http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/shop/hah/spare-parts/kopfpolster.html
