Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Easily Expand your Squeezebox Duet System

The Squeezebox Controller lets you easily add on to your Squeezebox Duet system, bringing crystal-clear audio from your computer or Internet connection to any room when used with additional Squeezebox Receivers. (Note: Squeezebox Controller requires either a Squeezebox Duet or Squeezebox Receiver.) The 2.4-inch color display makes it easy to browse playlists, albums, artists, and more. Even search by name. Convenient scroll wheel, simple menus, and intuitive buttons make navigation a breeze. Advanced 802.11g wireless technology eliminates the need to string wires everywhere just to listen to the music from your computer. And setting up an additional room is simple as pushing a button--even on secure networks.

Listen Even When Your Computer Is Off

With this controller and a Squeezebox Duet and/or a Squeezebox Receiver (both sold separately), you can access millions of songs, thousands of Internet radio stations, and music service providers such as Pandora, Rhapsody and Slacker, without ever turning on your computer using mysqueezebox.com, Logitech's unique Internet service. Even your personal music collection can be stored online in an MP3tunes music locker and played through your Squeezebox.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to the Squeeze, August 17, 2008

By	knowledge seeker (Emery, South Dakota, USA) - See all my reviews

I use it mostly to identify the music I am hearing. I don't have to get up and look at the Squeezebox to see the title and composer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not ready for prime time, September 6, 2008

By	Ian S. Mccarthy (Myersville, MD United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you look at the reviews for the Duet (this controller plus the receiver) you will see that there are many problems with the controller. I have both the Duet and the original squeezebox and I would recommend buying the original rather than the Duet. The Controller has a very limited range and drops out of contact with the network without warning. Re-establishing contact is a frustrating process that works some days and on others simply fails repeatedly. If you contact support online you will probably not receive any answer and if you call they will blame your wireless connection. Having said this, when it works it is marvellous.

5.0 out of 5 stars Logitech Remote controller, June 17, 2009

By	Brendan T. Smith - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have had this product for about a month. I had the original squeezebox and wanted to add this controller (it came out one month after I had purchased the original squeezebox). It took me less than 10 minutes to set up and has worked extemely well for the first month. Occasionally, it will drop the signal when I have put it down for a while, but it takes less than 30 seconds for it to find the system again. I am very happy with the product and would recommend it to others. I use it with a range of up to 100 feet from the wireless router.
