My squeezebox help Continue SqueezeboxSqueezebox 3 in Logitech housingDeveloperLogitechTypeNetwork Music PlayerRelease date2001Introductory priceUS $199.99 (179.99)Discontinued2012 Squeezebox is a network music player from Logitech. The squeezebox was originally discontinued in favor of a visually similar but simplified Logitech UE Smart Radio, but in 2013 Logitech added an official menu option to install Squeezebox software on Smart Radio, effectively turning it into Squeezebox Radio. History Slim Devices was founded in 2000 and was first known for its SlimServer used for music streaming, but launched a hardware player called SliMP3, capable of playing these streams in 2001. Although the first player was fairly simple only supporting the Wired Ethernet and MP3 native, it was followed two years later by a slightly more advanced player that was renamed Squeezebox. Other versions followed, gradually adding support for additional file formats, Wi-Fi support, gradually adding larger and more advanced displays, as well as a user-focused version of audiophiles. Support for music playback from external streaming platforms such as Pandora, Napster, Last.fm and Sirius has also been added. Devices as a whole have two modes of operation; either autonomously, where the device connects to the Internet streaming service directly, or to a local computer running Logitech Media Server or a network storage device. Both server software and most of the firmware on the latest players are issued under open source licenses. In 2006, Slim Devices was acquired by Logitech for $20 million. Logitech continued to develop the player until it announced its discontinuation in August 2012. The online service mysqueezebox.com needed to use Squeezebox without a private server is still supported by Logitech. Given the cross-platform nature of the server and customer software, some users have ensured continued use of the platform, using the Raspberry Pi as a special Squeezebox device (both client and server). Squeezebox version of SliMP3 (2001) First generation hardware requires Logitech Media Server (formerly SlimServer, SqueezeCenter and Squeezebox Server) to launch, which is free, open source software. This wired Ethernet is only native and supports one audio format, MP3. Logitech Media Server can transcode other audio formats on MP3 on the fly using LAME MP3 coding. Squeezebox (November 2003) second-generation equipment, also called SB1, so as not to confuse it with the squeezebox range. SB1 originally used the same display as SliMP3. Key additions included additional Wi-Fi, PCM/WAV/AIFF non-repressive audio streams, as well as headphones, S/PDIF coaxial and optical outputs. As with successor models, the required server may be SlimServer (ended with Rev 6.5.4), 6.5.4), (Rev 7.x) or Logitech Media Server. Slim Devices has offered to update the bitmap display for this hardware, but it is no longer available. Some units have a 40×2 Noritake symbol display, others have a 280×16 pixel Noritake bitmap display. Squeezebox2 (April 2005) third generation equipment. Features included an additional 802.11g of Wi-Fi, on-call support for more audio formats (FLAC, WMA, Ogg), updated 320×32 pixel gray scale bitmap VFD display, visualizers, bitmeak fonts. This model has infrared remote control, analog outputs, volume control, headphone jack, coaxial and optical digital outputs. Squeezebox2 supports numerous audio formats including MP3, Windows Media Audio, Musepack, Monkey's Audio, Apple Lossless, FLAC, Shorten, WAV, AIFF, Ogg Vorbis and unencrypted AAC. Of these, MP3, Windows Media, FLAC, WAV, AIFF and Ogg Vorbis at home are supported by the player's firmware; the rest are automatically transcoded by logitech Media Server host software in one of the player-supported formats. Apple's iTunes Music Store is not supported by Apple' AAC. Squeezebox Classic (SB3) (November 2005) Squeezebox Classic, aka Squeezebox3, aka SB3, aka Squeezebox 3rd Generation, has fourth generation hardware. The features and most technical specifications are identical to those of Squeezebox2. A new board and chassis design is used, as well as new remotes and internal Wi-Fi antennas. With the introduction of the Squeezebox3 Duo, it was renamed the Squeezebox Classic. Due to the switch to Logitech during production, SB3 was available in Slim Devices and Logitech Housing. Dimensions: 7.6W × 3.7H × 3.1D (192 mm × 93 mm × 80 mm), including the stand. Transporter (September 2006) Fifth generation equipment. The features are similar to Squeezebox v3. Focused on audiophiles. Additional features over Squeezebox v3 include double 320×32 pixel displays, front-facing buttons and tactile feedback pen, redesigned backlit remote control, balanced (XLR) and unbalanced audio outputs, balanced and unbalanced digital inputs and outputs (AES/EBU and S/PDIF) (entry to operate as a standalone DAC), serial RS-232 connection for external control, infrared input. Squeezebox Duet (January 2008) This new design consists of more sophisticated remote controls, called a Squeezebox controller (aka SBC) with a display (like Sonos), and a separate simplified network music player box called The Squeezebox Receiver (aka SBR) connecting to the stereo. SBR can operate without SBC, although it is not supported by Logitech and is only recommended for advanced users. The SBC can also work as an audio player through an integrated speaker or through an integrated headphone jack. Additional SBRs could be bought Differences between Squeezebox Classic and Squeezebox Duo include: SBR does have a display (only multicolored LED status), instead relying on the controller for its user interface. The SB3 has a headphone jack. The duo only have a headphone jack on SBC. SB3 uses infrared for remote control while the duo uses WiFi for the same purpose. The lack of an IR remote eliminates compatibility with a universal remote control. SBC has IR transmission capabilities that can be used to control other devices, such as the power and volume of a connected amplifier. The DAC from SB3 is a Burr-Brown 24-bit DAC, and one on the SBR duo is the Wolfson 24-bit DAC. The total harmonic distortion on SB3 is less than -93.5 dB (0.002%) and on the CBD Duet less than -88 dB (0.004%). The Squeezebox Classic cost US$300 and the Duo $400. The Squeezebox controller is the first device in the Squeezebox line to run on SqueezeOS, a built-in Linux distribution. These devices are less thin than previous Squeezeboxes. Squeezebox Radio and Squeezebox Touch are also SqueezeOS-based. Because the Squeezebox Controller is largely out of date with smartphone and tablet apps, and Squeezebox Is Superior to Squeezebox Receiver in every way, Squeezebox Duet was discontinued in early 2011. Squeezebox Boom (August 2008) In a departure from previous models, Boom combines the Squeezebox feature with the DSP, an integrated 30 watt amplifier and two-amp stereo two-conphase speakers to produce autonomous devices that require only a wired or wireless network connection and power. Without a network connection, Boom can still amplify and play a line level signal from the outside player through a 3.5mm mini plug connector. Squeezebox Boom was discontinued in early 2011, without replacing the model. Squeezebox Radio (September 2009) Squeezebox Radio Squeezebox Radio adds a color screen (2.4) to the all-in-one design of its older brother, Squeezebox Boom, but only in a mono configuration. Squeezebox Radio can be powered by an additional branded battery that was available in March 2010. When you launch the Logitech Media Server, two Squeezebox Radios can be synchronized and set to play one stereo channel each, thus working as a stereo device. You can also use one squeezebox radio as a stereo device with headphones. Squeezebox Touch (April 2010) Squeezebox Touch is the functional successor to SB3, and has several new features: 4.3 color touch screen Play songs stored on a memory card or USB drive, although it can only handle playlists of 100 songs or less at the same time. Supports 16- and 24-bit sound at sampling speeds of up to 96 kHz (or up to 192 kHz, enabled with third-party plug-in). Supports asynchronous usb digital audio output enabled with a free side-party plug-in. The latest software versions allow native WMA WMA Support. UE Smart Radio Simplified interface and limited functionality. Visually very similar to Squeezebox Radio. It has the ability to switch to the firmware Squeezebox. Discontinued in 2014.
