Rating : - Strikes and Gutters Being a radio enthusiast I was excited to try the Boom. My primary use is streaming live radio broadcasts. Although the Boom gives good sound, I returned it and purchased the Squeezebox Radio, which costs one hundred dollars less and is a far superior radio.
The Boom's menu is choppy and cumbersome to navigate. Design is uninspired. Build quality is average. The remote is nice, of course, but it doesn't solve the choppy navigation. After an evening of listening, I knew I loved wi-fi radio, but that this was not going to be my unit.
So I took it back and opted for the next generation, the Radio, whose audio (though through a mono speaker) is to be reckoned as sublime. Jazz with Bill Perkins on WRTI Temple Public Radio, 6-9 EST, though the Radio is a Platonic ideal of a listening experience. One cannot imagine a more perfect radio situation in the history of radios.
I do not know what listeners to individual mp3 music collections will think of the Radio, but radio lovers, who seek more than mere audiophilic titillation, will recognize its brilliance immediately. The art deco design and build quality are smart and appreciated.
Forget the Boom. Get Plato's Radio.
