Anyway, I am kind of disappointed that no "audiophile" companies have
something like this with good audio and, having started on a search for
"audiophile" quality cd-clock-radio, the best I have seen is a sony
model at Circuit City! (Tivoli has a good radio, Boston Acoustics a
good clock radio, but I haven't met my ideal "cd clock radio" yet.)

Good audio doesn't come in such small packages, I'm afraid :-)

Bass response can be forced out of a small box, but creates a very
nasty and tiring sound (cf the Bose "Wave" boxes. Appealing on first
hearing, but you soon get tired of listening to a single bass
frequency).

Get a cheap clock-radio. You can survive listening to the content,
not the hi-fi, particularly when your head is buried in a pillow.

I expect one of the "life-style" system providers would rig you up
something compact, pretty, vastly over-priced and mediocre-sounding if
you asked nicely ;-)
