Pros: Price, Features, Sound, Ability to upgrade hardware via firmware and the expansion port.
Cons: Small LCD, no SPDIF out.
The Bottom Line: A nice product, that can be found at an excellent price (cough,'bay) ;)
One of the only Wireless DARs available.

| jte34's Full Review: Motorola Simplefi Home Audio Receiver |
While I did have a slight problem with my firewall during setup, I managed to complete the entire installation in about 20-25min. The sound quality, especially with 128+ Kbps material is great! The ability to tag a song for artist info is really nice too. However, the Simpleware software required an update to play my WMA files. But, when you upgrade the software, it upgrades the Firmware on the unit as well. The unit also has a port to allow for future expansion. The Internet Radio is good, although it would be nice to be able to add content, other than those provided by the big 3 (Shoutcast, Live365, and Virgin). So far I have not experienced any dropouts while listening to Internet radio. Simplefi can be found for much less than Retail, if you know where to look.
