I sent it back and awaiting a refund It was not what I wanted.
The Logitech is actually clearer. I actually prefer to play my iPod at home off of a Logitech portable that cost $109, versus this at about $500. Bose offers NO options to adjust aything on this unit and they somehow made the assumption that the sound is just perfect, but it isn't at all, whetehr it's by a wall or not, makes no difference.I wish I hadn't bought this, it's crap. I thought htis was going to be hands down the best compact piece I would ever buy.WRONG.couldn't be less impressed with it. No adjustable sound quality and the bass is just way too heavy against the treble.
I WOULD NEVER BUY another BOSE ITEM. I would sell it if I could. The names of the tracks don't play across the screen as touted by BOSE.
It is an overpriced radio. Oh, and when I purchased the multi-disc changer.that made the worst clunky and cheap sound when shifting between discs - IT WAS AWFUL. Man, I fell into the hype about the BOSE WAVE RADIO ~~.For the $$, it is NOT worth it.
I returned that, but am stuck with a $500 radio. In fact, I very well may donate this one to a church.Now BOSE has a Wave radio with an ipod connector.Good Luck. I say that because I have not gotten one cd whether a personal mix OR COMMERCIAL to play, in its entirety.
Each time I try, it skips or gets stuck.
Many people will be happy with the sound but as an audiophile I just can't get used to its different tonal quality. The inclusion of a CD player is nice but I was really disapointed in the sound quality of the unit when compared side by side with my old Wave Radio. It just plain does not sound as good as my old unit. I own a Bose Wave Radio that I bought way back in 1994 and it is still going strong today. I recently bought one of these and tried out for about a week.
At best, it's worth about $150. The Bose is a nice table radio but a bad value at $499. For $250-299 you can get the Sony LBT-ZT4: a shelf system that plays both CDs and DVDs; has a multi-disk CD changer; has a USB port as well as an IPOD dock; has the controls on the unit as well as on the remote; has a graphic equalizer; and has a more full, powerful bass response; all features the Bose lacks. What more can I say.
