Here's a question. Why would anyone in their right mind spend over
two hundred dollars for a small table radio who's sound quality is
marginal at best?

How do you know it's "marginal at best"? Do you own a HD radio?
Which one?

On another note how can you appreciate the quality
of HD radio with such an inadequate reproduction system?

My home theatre system does not have dual alarm clocks let alone a clock.
Besides, I can't fit a home theatre stereo on my night table, can you?

The Boston
Acoustics radio is not bad, I've heard worse, but still it's so
limited.

Got headphones? Try a pair of Grado's with your(?) B.A. Receptor - supurb!

HD Radios are now available in all platforms - table top, auto and componant
for audiophiles.http://www.HDRadio.com
All HD radio's incorporate analog as well as IBOC receivers.

This makes as much sense as receiving HDTV programming on a
1980's Sanyo television. It loses something in the translation, so to
speak.

Then get a FM HD componant receiver for your Home Theatre system.http://www.HDRadio.com

I've listened to enough of the BA radios in various stores, so on.
You're right, what the hell do I know. It's great to listen to good
audiophile material on 4 inch speakers. Just like being there, in the
very back row.

The home theatre system sounds better, I'm sure. But at almost a
thousand dollars, I don't think so, not yet anyway.

On the otherhand, I like my XM radio system. And now you can bitch
about the twelve dollar per month fees.

Forget I showed up here, LOL.
