Somebody at work put a Logitech Transporter in the trash/junk pile (with the remote). So I took it home and created a account and got it all setup, even have my sonos ran into the digital input.

So i have the app and computer software and i see deezer listed as an app but i cant set it up bc there is no settings page for it. Im thinking this is because deezer is french and is still restricted here in the states.

How do i hack this badboy to allow for deezer to work?

    Hmmm cant get Spotify to play too.
    I added it from the web browser and logged in, but no sound or Spotify app on the face of the unit.
    Pandora, xm, FM, and network misic all work great.

    I think you need Logitech Media Server running and I don't remember the setup, but it is out there on the interwebs.

    Nice find... I wanted one of those a few years back but am very happy with the Bluesound Node.

    We are looking at the blue sound nodes to replace sonos. Had a meeting/demo with a rep, of course i was out but my co-workers said the product was nice. They really liked the vault too.

    I figured out Spotify, its a 3rd party app. Doesnt work great...
    The network music player, xm, fm, and digital inputs do work great and sound great.
    I think going to sell this guy or trade it here on the forum's, but only because i have sonos and a autonomic mms.

    I agree on the blue sound.. have no complaints about mine at all.. and they are either releasing shortly or just released the 2.0 versions of the Blue Sound devices which are much thinner than the first version.

    Have you had any experience with a BlueSound system using 5-30 players?

    Anyone think $750 would be a fair selling price for this bad boy, I'm done playing with it. DAC is awesome, software is alright but I already have a Autonomic mms and a Sonos zp90. I think somebody else should enjoy this.
    Besides, it feels wrong having my Sonos connected to it.

    it looks like that goes for varying prices closer to $500 on ebay you might want to check out a few of the listings and compare.

    The 2.0 stuff is out, I am playing with it (node2) now.
    I like the transport button on the top (next, prev, play, pause, and volume), they are a nice touch when you're plugged into the front headphone jack.
    I thought it ( the keys) was goofy at first but after using it all day on my desk they make sense now.
    Looks as if I can teach this thing IR codes too! Unit has IR out and a I think it has a 12v trigger too.
