Squeezebox Vs Duet

Which has better sound quality?
I really like the duet remote but if sound quality is better on the sb3 I could go that way and add the duet remote later.
Current 2 ch system is an Arcam se8 to Modded Lite Dac Ah to B&K reference 20. I am looking to make a move up in sound quality and at the same time add the convenience of pc based audio.
Thanks

Thanks for the response. REsearching the itouch I can see how a lot would enjoy having one. For me it would just be another remote for the sb.
I just want to be able to control the music stored on my hd and have a sound quality upgrade.

Did you feel like the sb, dac combo was a significant upgrade in sq? I will start with the dac ah and eventually upgrade to a tube dac (Paradisea+).
Thanks

The Duet receiver doesn't have any screen and the remote works perfectly. Why would you have to look at Squeezebox's screen to use the remote?

Think Tvad referred to the sb3 in his reference to the screen not the duet.

Thanks for the info. Feel sure the itouch would be an upgrade even from the duet remote. It looks to be very versatile a has tremendous functionality. If I were planning to use the functions it would be a no brainer. At this time I do not intend to use it that way but will continue reading about it and considering how it might be of use. You have succedded in getting me curious.
