Boulder Modified Squeezebox...any experience?


Hello all,

I have been interested in the Squeezebox V3 for some time now...I finally had the opportunity to see and use one at a local shop and liked the interface, which I think would work well with my iTunes library...which FYI is all ripped in Lossless.

Now to the meat here. I am worried however that the stock SB V3 is not really going to keep up with my Denon transport, let alone anything else that I have thought about upgrading to...Which makes me wonder what type of difference has the boulder modifications had on this device. I have read all of the reviews I could find on the mods, but am interested if any of you have had experience with this modified piece...

Finally, if you have had experience with the squeezebox at all, but particularly the modified unit, what did you think? How does the modified SB compare to your transport? Please let me know what transport with which you are making comparisons.

Thanks for your input!

Bob,

Yes, that is the idea...however the mod I am most interested in is the digital mod...Simply becasue of the fact that I will be using the external DAC...I would want the unit to perform its best under it digital capabilities. For $550...for the mod and the SB 3 on eBay...it shouldn't cost too much if it can compete with some high $$$$ transports.

Thanks for your input,
Ben
