Hi
Can anyone clarify for me if there is any difference in quality between a Squeezebox Duet and a Squeezebox Touch, if I am running Ethernet cable to it and then digital out to my Beresford DAC?
I've read threads here which suggest the Squeezebox Touch is superior to the Duet in sound quality - is that just with regard to the internal DACs in them?
A Duet in excellent condition has come up for sale here in NZ and the appeal is that my wife has a work iPhone she isn't allowed to put apps onto (ridiculous, I know) and is also a technophobe…so having the Duet remote for her to view and control music is appealing. I've not seen any Touch come up for sale here and US amazon seems risky with the device age getting on 10years in some cases now...
I know I could build a Raspberry Pi, but it wouldn’t have an screen interface…or am I being dim and there’s a cheap and easy screened device option to dedicate to this purpose?
The Duet option for internet radio as well as accessing all of our old iTunes files seems like a nice and easy fix for my situation.
Thanks
