News has leaked out ahead of official release. There is a picture in one of the posts which the Logitech mods may remove.

24/96 at a reasonable price for feeding a Standac. The pretty interface will be of no interest to some, and as has been noted, why have a touchscreen you have to walk to touch?

Note also that the latest version of Squeezecentre will downsample on the fly as it streams to a Squeezebox Classic or Duet. It most practical situations the difference will not be heard.

I have some Gimmel 24/96 files I stream that way, and I cannot hear the difference between the downsampled files at 24/48 and the 24/96 originals played into a 7510 using Foobar with ASIO on an XP PC.

Numbers are not everything.

Brian the speculation developing on the web this week about this “SB Touch” is interesting.
This may be wishful thinking, but 24/96 files streamed and a USB host port to connect direct to external HD files is appealing. If the Touch hosts a version of Squeezecentre, then no need for a PC!
