[#241] Logitech Squeezebox Replacement    
"之前係用USB-DSD板接SYNOLOGY DS213..........平平無奇...." I know. If you are just change the smps to LPS, no big change until you use M4 SSD and add capacitors on LPS, then there is a huge difference. In fact, I am planning to expand my SSD storage to play music direct from 212j Audio Station to DAC, I spotted that streaming from pogoplug is almost the same sonic as play direct, then I turned to pogoplug-VAMP which uses HDD, save a lot of money in storage.
In my system, both Audio Station and VAMP are outstanding in sound quality.

Popoplug ->VAMP is easier to handle by usual computer/Hi Fi Users.

Now I have two SBT in dinning room and bedroom plus a popoplug in study room.

Any ching had experienced changing router smps to LPS?
I use a LPS for Netgear router, for some reason, the bass is much solid, vocal is much improved. So LAN cable should also change the sound a bit.

This is why I'm using wifi on my VAMP. Stop the noise from entering into the Pogoplug from the router.

That is a quite a good idea to avoid router and Lan cable to affect sound quality.

I'm using no name brand, but wifi support is quite limited with VAMP due to the fact that it is not using the latest 3.2 kernel.

I bought mine on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-802-11-n-g-b-Wifi-Wireless-LAN-Adapter-with-2dBi-Antenna-Ralink-3070-chipset-/281089899306?pt=US_USB_Wi_Fi_Adapters_Dongles&hash=item4172437b2a

Ralink 3070 works well (802.11n). Ralink 2070 (11.g) also works, but for some reason, the sound is not as good. Ralink 3072 does not work and I've D-Link DWA-140 rev B2 and Buffalo 300N-v1, both didn't work (driver loads, but connection was extremely flaky).

Also, D-Link DWA-127 does not work even it has 3070 chipset. This wifi dongle/antenna is only supported in 3.2 kernel, after much research.

I spent some more time to play with my Pogo/VAMP V0.4 image.

I found it is a lot better through the VAMP to my Benchmark DAC1 than a direct USB to a desktop computer.

This gadget has the highest C/P that I ever had in playing hifi.

I haven't upgrade the power supply yet.

I have an Audio-Gd power supply and may try with it.

[#253] Community Squeeze OS    
There is now a community Squeeze OS project going on, which makes use of the Wandboard:

http://www.communitysqueeze.org/index.jsp

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98544-Community-Squeeze-OS-R3

It is based on the Wandboard hardware:

http://www.wandboard.org

It is not something as cheap as the Pogoplug, but for US$103 ($99 is the student price), you get a significantly more powerful hardware than the Pogoplug, similar to the Cubox but for a lesser price: Cortex A9 Dual core (1GHz), 1GB DDR3 RAM, 802.11n Wifi, Bluetooth, optical S/PDIF, audio out, HDMI, plus an emerging new standard EDM connector.

The hardware is powerful enough to host LMS (together with the Squeezelite player) with nice running speed.

On a separate thread, someone is working on a DAC board which can be plugged into the EDM connectors. The attempt is to replace the SBT completely but with a better DAC chip.

Kuro hing,
The BeagleBone Black from TI is also interesting, comes wiht a 1GHZ ARM Cortex A8 SGX530 graphic engine ,512 DDR3 and 2GB onboard flash. Price is HK$385.80. Enough power for a music streamer platform ? Wonder if we can run Fedora on this?

I think the reason to use the Wandboard is that there is a community of developers on it and I see things being developed and debugged very quickly on that platform. Whether it sounds good with a USB DAC/USB S/PDIF converter is another question.

There are people using Raspberry Pi. But I read that the USB controller is buggy on the Pi and it drops data packets. The Wandboard has full EHCI USB controller. Not sure if the Pogoplug has full EHCI USB controller.

Well, the serial output of the Pogoplug during boot confirms it:

Marvell USB EHCI Host controller #0: c0650600
