I recently scoured the earth for a radio for my bathroom & wondered why it was SO difficult!! Most radios (especially the small ones) sound like shit - terrible speakers! I have a Sharp that's 8 years old, sounds better than all the junk in the stores today - WTF?? Isn't technology supposed to advance?? Is America just one big Walmart???

All I wanted was small, decent sound, clock would be nice, gotta have repeat function for the CD player. I got everything but the repeat feature, lol, but for a tiny little thing (4x5x5?) the sound is GREAT! (it's a Phillips if anyone is in the same boat) I just sacrificed & made a loop of my daily ritual song, God Instrumental - no repeat, no problem!

Do you have music in every room of your house? If not, which rooms do you have music in & which rooms do you WANT music in?

Me: bedroom, den, living room, bathroom. Nothing in the kitchen yet, working on it

bedroom,kitchen,living room,cd player/walkman,...


i want something in the bathroom but i havent been looking tho'

I have music in my living room/kitchen/diningroom. There was a stereo in Ian's room for awhile but he moved. I would really like a Bose system or small boombox in my bathroom. That would be ideal.

i turn it up load enough so it goes all over even to the niegbors houses.

i seen a cdplayer/shower radio that goes over the showerhead... but i dunno sounds messy

Anywhere I am the music is there right with me

Living room, kitchen, car, personal CD PLayers

Would love it in the bathroom, but theres no electrical outlets in bathrooms here in the UK, due 2 UK building regulations, but theres one just outside the bathroom door so eye take my sons CD Player in there!! he hates it though!!

I bought one of those stupid things They sound like utter shit. A kid banging on a pot would sound better than the speakers on those things! Plus they're battery operated, take 6 C batteries the buttons are too sensitive, too much to deal with for $50

Living room, study, kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom...

My bathroom stereo is linked to the kitchen one, "B & O", It has a just a set of speakers in the bathroom and a remote comtrol senor...the problem is you have to choose what CD you wanna listen to before you get in the tub, & if you are going for a long haul soak, sometimes you have to get out and go into the kitchen and change the CD, or just repeat of course, which is usually what happens

That's a good idea Even deciding what to listen to before you get in the tub isn't so bad, it's a drag hitting the buttons or changing the disk when your hands are all wet I'll have to do that one day, there's no sound like GOOD sound...

BTW, forgive me if I'm late but in case you're new...

Welcome to the Org! (I recognize your name from the other site)

I have a cd player in my computer, which is in my bedroom and a stereo system in my living room. I can listen to music from my bedroom while in the bathroom, so really, it is just the kitchen that I want some kind of system in.

Great thread

So where's my stars???

Sorry about that--I thought words alone would rate it!!! I have voted twice now, out of shame for forgetting...

Therapy said:

LOL!

have bose wired in 3 rooms bedroom, kitchen, family room.

My sanctuary a portable cd stereo, and the patio has a small system.

every room of the house...but the two places i listen most in is my bedroom and the bathroom

My living room, bedroom, office, the upstairs landing, my daughter's room and my son's room. Oh, and the garage.

What I really want is a good system and have it wired with speakers in the walls of every room and hoooked up so that I can have something different playing in another area of the house if I wanted... all controlled by the one system.

every room in the house...

stereo in the bedroom...

boombox in the bathroom...

huge rack stereosystem in a nice glass cabinet in the living room...

surround sound speaker and a soundblaster live soundcard in the computer room...

no need for one in the kitchen... the one from the living room carries over just fine...



gotta have music everywhere...

I'd go with the Bose Wave with CD player. I have one in the bedroom as the sound is big. I realize that the bathroom is a hazardous place for high end electrical equipment, but the thing is well built, and the heat generated during use should limit condensation in the unit.

My primary music system is in my living room. It's decent stuff, but I dream of a new system. Frankly, my best sound system is in my car - the Mark Levinson 9 speaker system designed for the Lexus SC430. Here's a link!

My stereo's set up so the wires run through
the house...speakers wherever I want them.

It's nice, especially when I hit surround
sound.

i live in a iddy-biddy studio apartment, so all my stereo equipment's in my livin room, near my bed...my record player/speakers are on the floor near the foot of my bed (which sux cuz i have a downstairs neighbor who's elderly, so i can't turn up my record player ), and my cd player sits on this ledge built in over my bed (i have a murphy bed)...

Gotta work with the walls. Use them like
you would floor space. Most of my speakers
are on the walls.

Well, in my crib since my house is a one-room crib hope you figured that out.

In my bedroom.

RoseOfSharon said:

i'd put 'em on my wall, but the speakers are huge...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

how big???
that's just me and my sensitive ears...
the sound is different to me when the
speakers are up
don't need as much volume to get the
same effect
and the sound isn't bouncing from the
floor

Every room except the bathroom. I don't want any more electricity in there than I have to have (curling iron). I'm scurred.

*bump* cuz I feel like it...

Kitchen, bedroom, sun room...

i stuck a sub woofer next to the stick up in my toilet
