Well, to these ears the Roberts WM-201 sounds pretty good. It has two decent-sized full range drivers in a solid, bass-ported cabinet. I would say that it's at least the equal of a Tivoli Model One.
The Reciva-based internet radio functionality is in many respects superior to what Squeezebox offers and the alarm works very well. There are 4 independent alarm programs. The display is a backlit LCD measuring about 3x1 inches. This shows 3 lines of scrolling text when the radio's on, or a giant-sized digital readout of the time when in standby. Brightness levels are fully adjustable. As a media player it has limitations when compared to a Squeezebox, though I've found it to be perfectly serviceable as a bedside device in this role (EyeConnect is my upnp media server of choice). To be honest, I use the Roberts far more that my Squeezeboxes simply because it's somehow more............. convenient, I guess. It's also sold in the US as the Sangean WFR-20. -- sixofone ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sixofone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11979 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40983 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
