My bedside booms have always been rock solid on alarms for years. And I like the radios as well. But I have to say, given your desire to mostly have a classic alarm clock with snooze, etc., a $7 small form clock radio (or just alarm) would probably be a better choice. p.s. If I absolutely must get up at a certain time, I use my Boom, my iphone alarm, and an old fashioned alarm clock. I rarely have to get up at a certain time, but when I do, I can't afford to miss and don't fully trust any networked appliance (boom, radio, iphone) to work 100% of the time. -- garym System 1: Vortexbox Appliance (1.5) > SbS 7.5.4 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) System 2: Win7(64) laptop > SbS 7.6.1 > Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio and laptop) Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controlled at both locations with: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.6 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90285 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
