Depends on the room and what you're trying to accomplish. I don't think a nursery is going to be the ideal listening environment, so it's not like you need great separation and such. The Radio works great in kitchens, bedrooms, offices, etc... It can be loud enough to annoy people. > > i'm thinking the lcd interface is probably easier to work with, is the > boom up for an upgrade to the lcd screen? Maybe... no announcement, though, and no sign of anything to replace it. Certainly 'some day' it will happen... but that would be several months or more away is my guess. Sort of like eventually there will be hard drives with 10TB on them some year.. but I wouldn't hold my breath, and delaying purchases because In The Future Technology Will Be Moreso would mean you'd never buy it... there is always something cooler in the future. Both the Boom and the Radio are nice toys. The radio is a bit sexier, but the boom has a bit better sound dispersion (the wonders of two speakers). Either is a fine choice, depending really on your personal tastes. I have both: Boom by the bed, Radio at work, and wouldn't trade either. Since radio's are heavily pushed by Amazon and others (they've been sneaking down to around $149 off and on), if you can get a deal on a radio, it's a damned hard price to beat. > > i will xpost on the boom forum as well. > many thanks.
