Hi there.

I'm wondering if to try the wandboard with community squeeze.

Has anybody compared SQ of the Wandboard Toslink to Touch Toslink?

Wandboard perhaps with quality USB-SPDIF interface -> Touch?

If wandboard, then solo/dual/quad ??

THX

Cheers

I can't talk to the quality but just to say Toslink on the Wandboard was
broken on the initial carrier cards. It is fixed on the carrier card
that ships with the Quad board. Hopefully they have now swapped out the
carrier card that ships with the dual board but it's worth check on
their forums. As for which one to chose (ignoring the Toslink thing)
then chose the dual as a minimum and the Quad if you want SATA support.
