Doesn't a remote on an alarm clock kind of elude the purpose of actually getting out of bed to turn off the alarm???

---The alarm clock is only there to 'snooz' (relax). No need to be alarmed.

I don't know about you, but I'm NOT retired, and when the alarm rings, I have to get out of bed.

Yes indeedy, as long as your demo's take place in your front yard, where the basking whales can provide the bass..

-----More white whales are accounted for this year! ,,,Which is real good news, plus the opposite trend for the first time in a very long time. ...Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, Canada. FACT!
There are now 400 or so. ...As compared to 200-300 and that were on their way to extinction.

>>> Hydrosound for Home Theater: HydroSonic Interactive Bass Sound System from Sound Related Technologies (SRT) of Virginia Beach.
Engineer John Alton, Jr., has created one monster of a subwoofer that uses water (!) to extend response down into the infrasonic range. He discovered that adding a compartment with a water-filled vinyl bladder (we're talkin' waterbeds here) to a conventional two-chamber sub smoothed and bolstered response down to a room-shaking "6.875 Hz." The woofers induce vibrations in the water that are transferred to the floor.
---SRT completed a home version of the system, which was developed for theaters, amusement-park rides, and other "applications requiring controlled vibration." The home SRT 12H is a 40-inch-tall rectangular wooden structure with five chambers. A ported chamber in the middle supports two 12-inch woofers, one firing up into a compartment with air holes leading to the top water chamber and one firing down into a chamber feeding the bottom water compartment. <<< - 1996

And to learn the Bose remote and transfer it to a Universal one should take no more than two minutes as there are only few buttons anyway. The hubby or boyfriend can do it for his better half (that's a nice short project to please the one you love).

Finally, The Bose Wave Radio system is not promoted as to be an audiophile component; unless I missed somethin' here.
What it is? ...A nice, simple, practical, good sounding unit for the nice, simple, practical, good looking ladies.
A) Since I have no significant other, that argument falls on deaf ears!

B) Bose has its market niche, and it did sound okay; I'd say it's pretty much what you describe. But I still wouldn't want one for the reasons described earlier.

I've past a bad guitar player with a voice that was worse in the street & dropped all the coin that was in my pocket for him. Why? Because I enjoyed coming across the sound & the experience. I have experienced the same with Bose & people.
