I ordered one of these as soon as I saw Rosco's earlier post in the ESP32 hardware thread. It arrived a few days ago.

First impressions are really good - it has a solid professional feel, and the sound is nice.

This evening I was pleased to see a pre-compiled bin file for SqueezeESP32. I've loaded that, and indeed it now behaves just like a SqueezeAMP from a software perspective. And with that comes the ability to tune the sound via the graphic equaliser, and now it's sounding perfect to my ears :-)

It's a nice addition to the Squeezebox family.

Looks very interesting.

I'd be tempted if there were some simple instructions on how to implement - I read through the online faqs, etc. but found them very confusing....

THe tutorial is here, there is a bin file to load no compilation to do. I could also preload Squeezelite on the speaker from now.

So where is the 'This evening I was pleased to see a pre-compiled bin file for SqueezeESP32' which Chill refers to?

I ordered one just like chill.

Put the squeeze firmware on it earlier this evening, and wow a really nice battery driven speaker!

Thanks!

How is the sound quality of the speakers? Comparable to the boom?
Is there a special code for forum members (just asking....)?

The Muse Luxe sounds very nice - open and clear, with a decent bass, and it stays clear even at quite a loud volume. Comparing it to the Boom - one of the best sounding portable devices I've ever heard - is rather unfair. The Boom is physically bigger, and has bigger bass drivers and separate tweeters, whereas the Muse Luxe has a pair of smaller full-range drivers (as far as I can tell from peeking through the grille). But the Muse has the ESP32 graphic equaliser, and I was able to tweak the sound profile to suit my personal preference (which has remained the same since I first fitted a graphic equaliser to my cheap car stereo back in the early 80s ), and I must say I'm extremely happy with the result - it's better than most portable devices.

I should also add that at 40 Euro (delivered) it's an absolute bargain.
