My journey with the SB3 and Transporter started with my desire to get
my CD collection onto my Bose WAVE Radio.

There is no way to trigger the AUX function as part of an alarm that I
could find. I settled on turning on the Waveradio to AUX when I went to
bed and left it like that, with an alarm on the SB3, so the WaveRadio
was left on all night.

I investigated the blaster, but did not go through with it. 

While the waveradio is adequate for FM listening (I never really used
the built in CD player), as I compared it to my other SB3 and
Transporter on Real Speakers, I became dissatisfied. I realized the
Bose had no stereo effect by design, was pretty muddy, boomy bass and
overly bright at the same time, and to top it all off, had a nasty
background noise level on the AUX position that bothered me at night. 

I eventually decommissioned the old stereo system bookshelf speakers
(BW Matrix) and recommissioned them as alarm clock speakers with a
power amp directly connected to the SB3. What an improvement!

Overkill I know. But I gave the WR to my wife who uses the alarm
function to wake up to AM radio....
