Your Perfect Office System?

Yamaha mini system - Black piano speaker model sounds nicest for $300-$500. Try Goodguys.com or your local Best Buys.

I choose this over Denon/Mission, Onkyo/Polk, JVC, Sony, Teac. But I think some Panasonic mini's sounded acceptable -also low theft value. Or cheap if they do get stolen.

The Bose Wave Radio/CD at under $500 is excellent for an office. It provdes FM and CD in a very small package with okay sound for an office. Please see the following:

Another cheap solution is to get a portable CDP which also has a tuner. Walmart sells them for $80-150. I like Panasonic the best. Sony is not recommended. Many now have a tiny remote as well.
Then get some self powered speakers like these Swan Divas:

So for around $350 you could get a very nice sounding, stylish system. And you could use the Walkman on the plane etc., not just in the office.

I'm down with Jeff & Celtic66. A Linn Classik and a pair of Linns or ProAcs will give you a look and a sound very appropriate for the office.

cd rom drive, and external speakers...I'm not spending a penny on audio outside of my home system. I'm sure my income is dramatically less than others who post on this thread.
