User Reviews for Logitech Squeezebox Duet

  • Reviewed by:

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: PC can be off - remote control takes care of it all.Small, lightweight.Easy set-up (even for a non-techie like me!)Most stations have no commercials, easy to change when they come on.

    Weaknesses: I think the duet box should have a screen showing the song(s) like the classic box.Slightly pricey ($355) - but Buydig was definitely the lowest price ($50 less than everywhere else).

    Overall Evaluation: A friend told me about this and I simply love it. The SqueezeNetwork software is very poor (e.g., it takes a while to set up your favorite stations) but once you do it is absolutely amazing!) Absolutely best thing I've bought in a long time!

    Strengths: Controller is responsive with a nice LCD screen. Battery life is good. Fairly easy to set-up.

    Weaknesses: Still pretty expensive though.

    Overall Evaluation: The ipod-like controller works well & can be easily handled with one hand. Supports a good number of internet radio like Pandora, Sirius etc. though must be authorized from a computer using Squeeze Center. No lag when streaming music.

    Strengths: Perfect network connections . access to all my music any where in my house

    Weaknesses: where?

    Overall Evaluation: Set this up in ten minutes. My living room, basement and bedrooms are all hooked up. Rediculous device set up xm radio and all my saved music from my computer. when my father in law saw it he wanted to take it. i told him to buy his own.

    Strengths: Great screen on remote; Raphsody interface; user community extensible

    Weaknesses: None to me

    Overall Evaluation: This is a slick device that lets me listen to my music on my home server as well as to online music services. I'm able to listen to over 100 XM stations (if you have XM in a vehicle you get a free login to listen to online). Everyone who has seen the device thinks it is very neat. I am very happy with my purchase, and the value received versus the price paid. Works seamlessly with my WPA wireless network.
