Does your Logitech Squeezebox Duet go to eleven? Mine does! As some of you know I'm not a big fan of Squeezeboxes. I consider them a convenient mid-fi product that serves a purpose but doesn't sound very good. Recently I was contacted by the Bolder Cable Company about its modified Squeezebox Duet. After numerous hours and listening sessions I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of the modified Duet versus the stock Duet. The Bolder Cable Company has managed to squeeze every ounce of performance out of the Squeezebox Duet.
The Internet rumors had this one pegged. Apple released an updated Airport Express that supports 802.11n. Those of you using AirTunes or thinking about testing out some wireless functionality (like me), have no excuse to hold off now. The little AE is only $99! Connect it to an external DAC and this could be a real good sounding combination considering the price. Want to bring it up a notch or two or ten? Combine the new Airport Express with one of Steve Nugent's Empirical Audio Pacecars.
