the smaller Bose is about as good as it gets, really. You could get one of those satelite radios, but you have to buy a subscription. Other than that, any Panasonic, boom box, or especially an Aiwa or if Onkyo is making any. One brand that is as much name as performance is B&O (Bahng and Olephson). They are good, and get design awards from interior decorators. But they are expensive and with some looking around you can get as good a sound for less.
