Logitech Squeezebox Duet

New, smooth digital music streamer boasts logical navigation.


Few digital music streaming devices have caught on. Sure, such devices let you stream music over a wireless network, but they've either been inexpensive and clunky--with complicated setups to connect to your network and tiny, text-only screens--or they've been more graceful but pricey. The one truly successful system, from Sonos, falls in the latter category: It runs about $1000 for a two-room setup.

The new Squeezebox Duet, from Logitech division Slim Devices, tries--and mostly succeeds--at splitting the difference between those two extremes. At $400 for a one-room setup and $550 for a two-room system, the Duet costs about half the price of the Sonos system. (Of course, the $1000 bundle from Sonos includes one player with a built-in amplifier, something the Duet system doesn't offer.) And the Duet shares some of the features of its more expensive competition, including an elegant remote control with a color LCD.
