The Bottom Line Striking looks, easy setup, and great file compatibility make the Roku SoundBridge M1001 a solid option for streaming digital audio and Internet radio to your home stereo. The Logitech Squeezebox is an excellent choice for anyone who's serious about streaming digital audio, although buyers should also consider the newer Squeezebox Duet. The Sony VAIO VGF-WA1 is a stylish tabletop radio that can stream digital music from your PC, but a few key feature upgrades would have made us like it even more. A few minor flaws notwithstanding, the Grace Wireless Internet Radio is a great Wi-Fi radio at a relatively affordable price. Recent firmware and feature upgrades cement the Sonos Digital Music System's position as the best multiroom streaming audio solution available.
