    The Bose Wave Radio is $599. This baby was $279. That's less than half the price. And the sound is a perfect amount of lows, mids, and highs. Reception really depends on your location and other factors, but with IHeart Radio and all the other ways to connect these days, that's not a huge issue. Both music and talk radio sound superb. I put mine on a little shelf in my dining area and man does that white & black pop! So many of the shelf radios out there looked like something outta Star Wars. I posted a couple pics so you can see how good it looks. My only complaint is that they don't stock these in the stores. They certainly should be. Yamaha hit a grand slam with this one. I'm a retired guy, so I'll get my use out of this baby...

    This little Yamaha shelf stero is roughly the size of the Bose Wave, but with separated speakers. It has some clever add-ons like Bluetooth, though lacks multi CD player which was something I looked for. I settled on this one after reading other reviews and I'm very happy I did! It has great sound!

    We have dvd access, am fm radio, and bluetooth! We wanted something smaller that had all that...and this was it. We chose white as it looks bright and cheery in our kitchen. The sound is just as good as a BOSE> My friend is jealous... we play soft background music in our kitchen

    We purchased this to fit on a shelf in our garage. It has nice sound for a compact stereo. I like that it has a remote and can also work with Bluetooth.

    I tried and tried to get a CD player that was solid; had good sound; did not look like a jet dashboard; and that worked and looked like it might last more than 6 months. EUREKA I found it. This Yamaha is great. I wish it also had cassette player but it does not. I would have paid an extra $100 for that. But it looks great, sounds great, easy to operate and is solid. No cheap plastic that bends and warps.

    I’m very happy with the sound quality for the price. I haven’t tried the radio yet, but as far as CD’s go, they sound really good! I bought this for my bedroom and it has been living up to all my expectations. I was surprised to see that the display not only has the time, it also displays the day and date. I also like that the display offers 3 different brightness levels, I don’t like anymore light than absolutely neccessary when it comes to sleeping. Overall, I would reccommend this unit to anyone who wants good sound quality in a small package!

    I bought this to replace an older system in my cabin. I already had speaker wires in the wall so hooking up this system was easy. FM comes in great, CD works excellent and my favorite has been using an old MP3 player in random mode ( controlled by system remote)!Sound is excellent with surprising bass response. definitely worth the money.

    Sound is good and works great. We use it in our large bathroom. Nice to be able to charge your phone while listening and to listen to other apps. We use it to play cd's as well. Just what we were looking for.

    Bought this because we wanted to downsize from a large surround sound system. It has a CD player, it has mp3 and usb player capabilities. Though there are 2 wired speakers, it does have bluetooth for listening to other sources as well. I retuned it however because I wanted a little more powerful unit due to the fact that I like to listen to my music a little louder than this is capable of producing. It has 15 wats per channel at 4 ohms. Perfect for room or small space or apartment.

    Purchased this unit to replace a similar type component system, that was produced by a company I was not previously familiar with, which proved to be erratic and unreliable during CD play. Now have a better quality system and in a color that matches the décor of the room it is now displayed.
