I've had great FM and speaker sound on the BA Solo and Duo the last few years. The problem is that their AM tends to fry and the radios don't last long in general. Presets stop working, AM fries, etc.
So now I notice their Duo and Solo are becoming less and less available and only the Duo shows up on their website, with no color options as before.
So is BA getting out of the radio business? Maybe it's more speakers and iPod players.

Since Boston Acoustics' acquisition by D&M Holdings, I've been disappointed in their radios. I tried out the Solo, but returned it because of the crummy ergonomics (should it really require four steps to set the sleep timer?), so I couldn't attest to the quality control.
Too bad, because my old Recepter continues to be a great radio, and I'd buy another for another room if they were still being made.
