Does not play well with others.

As with other reviewers on this site, I found setup fairly painless, but after the Streamium SL400i was installed I found that it had clobbered several other devices on my system, including my ATI All-in-wonder card and my Roland M-1000 digital line...

Stay away from philips!

Very Cool - But A Work in Progress, Too

Finally, a big win with the wife in the CE area! The Philips SL-400i is a "bridge" between the stuff I have on my PC and my good ol' television and stereo (my speakers are incredible hunks of wood from 1964). The good news: I set it up in about 45...

Not bad!

 

Not bad!

I got the sl400i (instead of the sl300i) so I could stack it with my other components and stream Internet radio stations to my stereo. It was easy to set up and works great. A Web site you log into controls your online media and software you install on...
