The Squeezebox streaming from a computer hard drive is scary good.
Don't hesitate.
For the used price of about $200, a Squeezebox is a no-brainer.

What Source?
I am in the process of building a system. Pre-amp is Rotel RC1070 and amp is Rotel RB1070. For speakers, I am leaning towards either Sonus Faber Concerto Domus or Acoustic Zen Adagio.
I am slightly torn between either getting a Sony Blu Ray Player or another digital transport such as a Squeezebox or Wadia type device.
Other considerations:
1. Don't yet have a tv, but having a player that serves as a very good player would eventually serve a dual purpose.
2. Switching/searching for CDs is a pain.
3. Digitizing all of the music and putting it on the home network for ease of access would be really nice...but is the quality comparable from what I would get from the Sony BDP without adding an external DAC?
4. Wadia or Squeezebox?
I guess I am thinking out loud here....wondering what the best way to proceed is given my system and needing a source.
Thoughts, comments?
Thanks for the advice
