MP3 /CD /Radio for bedroom

[Redsun]

I am looking to buy a MP3 /CD /Radio for the bedroom.
I need it to be small as possible yet powerful but cheap.
Has anyone purchased one of these systems recently?

Perhaps the motoring section is not exactly the best place to post this question unless you are planning on installing in-car audio in your bedroom. Not necessarily a terrible idea as you could mount the speakers in the bed headboard and the Radio/CD/MP3 in a wall or a piece of bedroom furniture. You would just need a 12v mains adapter to power it. The cheap portable units you can get from electrical chain stores are poor in quality and, if you actually want music, a waste. Once you get up to the Bose wave radio/CD then the quality is reasonable. For real music quality visit a Linn Hi-Fi dealer. Linn have a number of items within their range which are installed 'hidden' and operated by a wall-mounted control unit. At this level of quality you won't want to be suffering the nasty compressed sound of MP3, though.
