Bought one previously and item itself was brand new; front of box was scuffed above.

I think free shipping is included, and tax may apply in some states.

edit: apply coupon code MIR15 for an additional 15% off.

What are the differences in this Classic model and the newer models? When should you go for one or the other?

mshan · « **Reply #2 on:** 6 Feb 2010, 05:03 pm »

Classic is the same as Squeezebox v3 or previous SlimDevices device with wireless capability.

From what I read, I think it is supposed to have better sound quality than other offerings, though delayed Squeezebox Touch may beat it.

sweet deal, but I'm waiting for the Touch myself...

Thanks for posting this - I went ahead and bought it. Sweet deal, considering that used units tend to go for $190 on ebay.

Still waiting on a Touch for the listening room, but this will do just fine for the HT.

Also, does this have a built-in volume control via the remote? Can you plug it directly into a power amp and bypass a pre?

mshan · « **Reply #7 on:** 11 Feb 2010, 04:02 pm »

Remote does have volume up and volume down, though I haven't tested this function.

Does have RCA outs, which actually sound very good.

Don't know about Tagent radio, but would google and also check out my squeezebox. Could also look at Squeezebox Radio if you want self-contained unit.

I have owned a version of this for over 3 years now.

1 - yes, you could use this to listen to internet radio.
2 - yes, it has a volume control via the remote, and can directly feed a power amp - this is exactly how I have used this, for three years how - I sold my transport, DAC, Monarchy SuperDIP, and tubed pre after buying one of these.

Recommended.

Saw coupon code MIR15 for dented box Logitech Driving Force GT for PS3 racing wheel and it applied correctly for Squeezebox too.

So, $153 shipped (tax in some) seems like a screamingly good deal!

Used the coupon above and got a squeezebox duet for $230 shipped

acresm22 · « **Reply #11 on:** 12 Feb 2010, 07:14 pm »

Yep, just placed my order as well...Squeezebox Classic for $152.99 to my door!Thanks guys for the info on the coupon code, and also the answers to my earlier questions.
Should be fun! SB straight into Music Reference EM7...

Mark, do you run yours into the Mag SE amp?

mcgsxr · « **Reply #12 on:** 12 Feb 2010, 07:29 pm »

Yep, the SB3 has directly fed the old Maggie SE.

In my current config though, I have an active Xover between the SB3 and the amp, to trim out the bass, and split that out to my sub amps.

I think the direct answer to your question though, is that in my system the SB3 is my transport, DAC, and preamp.

MaxCast · « **Reply #13 on:** 12 Feb 2010, 08:51 pm »

Looks like I better get ripping, just ordered one for 152 bucks.

Hey Carl,

The Squeezebox Classics are sold out but the Duet is still available and at $230 (w/promo code) it's still a smokin' deal.
