Best bedside system, unit?


Looking to buy a mono or stereo radio or radio/cd unit for late night listening in my bedroom....not a system. Headphone output a plus, but not a requirement. A timer shutoff is a plus.

I just bought a Squeezebox Radio for exactly the same thing as you are wanting it for. It's a fantastic unit!
Another thumbs up for Squeezebox Boom radio. Great unit and alarm clock is programmed to fade in favorite music.
I WISH i knew more about the Squeezbox unit, so i can't compare the sound quality to what I own- the Tivoli #3 radio, companion speaker (for stereo), CDP, and Subwoofer. all these pieces can probably fit on two opposing night stands with your ears in the middle. the sound is sublime on just about everything. the best sound on jazz piano trios/quartets, vibraphone, , but it does pretty good on classical, rock,
etc. the reception is really good with the cheapo wire antenna provided, so you
could imagine what adding a really good antenna would result in.
The cherry wood cabinets are also very attractive (IMO). i just wish someone
would modify one of these radios and the subwoofer to increase the performance even more. the subwoofer does a good but not great job, and
there is a limit to how loud it plays. but i personally love listening to the radio
late at night and there is always something to tune in to, including talk.
