Hi Dray,
Welcome to AoS.
I'm a fellow Squeezebox user: Transporter, Boom, 2 Radios, Receiver, SB3, iPeng'd iPad and iPhone. Great kit!
Enjoy the forum!
Cheers,
Bob

I loooove my Touch. A linear power supply and the software tweaks make it sound superb. I find I use internet radio a lot, mainly the higher bitrate stations such as Radio Paradise (now at 192 ogg Vorbis) and Linn Radio 320Kbps.

Thanks for the warm welcome, I am in the process of doing another 2ch setup for the downstairs Squeezebox (the Transporter replaced its spot in the family room). Right now I am planning to use a Emotiva mini X-a100 amp( on back order)

, I took a chance on a pair of Fluance SXHTB Towers (they should be coming today)

If I need to do some tweaking to the sound I have a Teac 10 band EQ

to run the sound from the Squeezebox between the amp. I will post my findings when it's all together. This is a budget project, under $400 when all said and done. It will be placed in the living room which gets hardly used. The amp and EQ will be place behind a piano out of sight and the squeezebox will sit on top along with other family pictures. ;)
Hi Dray, welcome to AoS. Never mind the hifi, I'm struggling to recognise your ride from your avatar... Ford Taurus? :scratch: (Sorry, I'm rather into American cars - a Mopar man at the moment with my beloved 300C.)
Anyway, I digress - glad you found us, and have fun. :)

No problem, in my Avatar pic is my rare 1998 Ford Contour SVT build #1295 out of 6000, I have the certificate from Ford of its SVT status. I have owned it for 10 years it has 158k on the odometer. The front lip is a Mirko splitter that were made only by Mirko for the SVT Contour. The SVT Contour came with a full body kit giving it a 3" lower stance than the basic Contour, came stock with 16" SVT rims (same as the Mustang Cobra) I have 17" paint match on mine.

Ah ha - interestingly, I thought it looked like a Mondeo, but knew that you didn't get those - but apparently the Contour is built on the same CDW27 platform. SVT - nice! We don't get those, so I guess the ST200 would be the UK equivalent - no limited run on them, though.
Nice wheels. :)
That's a very special car Dray, I too thought it was a Mondeo at first. What sort of power output are we talking? Loving the color by the way ;)
Oh, and welcome to AoS bud... :D
p.s. I can't leave without commenting on your first pic Dray: Darker Side Of The Moo, huh? What's all this then, some kind of Bovine threat to take over the world? :D

Hp 200 stock, I am pushing just a bit over 220 with just a better air induction and lighter weight fly wheel. Back in 1998 it top the BMW 3, audio a few other models in its class on performance test.

Just a FYI for those that ask about the SVT, I traded it in for something else:
