I do not know if this is somthing you all have tried. I bought a Sony media streamer a few months back to use in
bed room to watch Netflix on. I got to thinking the other day what it would soung like on my system, so I gave it
a go. I hooked it up to my Onkyo TX-8050 via digital optic, now the only thing needed was some way to view the
play list or Apps. I am using one of our portable dvd players that we take on trips, i now can view the Apps.
I only get Slacker radio and pandora radio to stream but whats really cool is I can also listen to my computers
playlist and all my music I downloaded or saved to it. The music quality is pretty good also I know it's not squeezbox
but it works pretty well for what I needed.
