i've had the boze wave clock radio for several years........if you crank up the volume a bit, it sounds extremely good for it's size......well balanced, no distortion. for good base, a subwoofer would be needed. the alarm works extremely well; the volume ramps up slowly to a loud enough volume to wake up a comotose sleeper like me. it does not take the place of a regular kick ass stero system, but better than any other clock radio i have had in the past.
when i purchased it, boze would charge your credit card every month for a year, with no interest...made it less painfull to buy it.
their ads are slighly exaggerated..............
