 Recent Software Updates Greatly Impoved the Controller |

| Reviewer: Richard J. Maggio, NJ |
I've owned the Duet (part of which is the controller I'm reviewing here) for about 2 years. Though I've always thought it was very cool and useful, it was difficult to set up in the beginning and has suffered from the scroll wheel being imprecise. Because the device was so useful, I overlooked the flaws. Others, as you can see from the reviews, couldn't overlook these flaws.
However, recent software updates have taken care of this. With the 7.4.0 release of software, the UI on the controller was changed. The current version as I write this is 7.5.0. This is the version that I'm running after upgrading from 7.3.3.
The screen has changed and doesn't look like what is pictured here. Better use is made of the screen real estate resulting in easier to read text and a much larger artwork display. The scroll wheel is very precise now - no overshooting your selection. The controller is overall very responsive now.
I recommend this product, escpecially with the recent performance and usability improvements introduced through software updates.

| This controller was so easy to setup that I have purchased another Squeezebox Boom and Controller for my other home. My advice is to shop around. I got the second set (Boom and the Controller) for [..] bucks. Sweet! |

| 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. |
Great addition to the Squeeze

| 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. |
Easy, works great.
