Mini-systems

Does anyone here have a mini-system at home or in the office that they can recommend? I need something with either one or two alarms that will also compliment a modern bedroom. In other words, I'd like to avoid those garish Aiwa units you see at Best Buy that look like they deserve their own X-File. Something elegant, preferably brushed aluminum/stainless steel, with nice grill covers and of course, good quality sound...

Thanks all,
Brian

It doesn't look classy, but has nice warm bass and pretty smooth mid. I don't know about a timer, but the best sounding all in one system for that money, except Linn Classic package.

I second the jvc suggestions. I bought one for my mom -just because, and she told me that if anyone tried to break into her place they could take her jewels and money and whatever, but if they tried to take her jvc she would beat them to death with her exercise ball. We are talking seriously audiophile here.

Sharp has a 1-bit system that list for like $600 going for $130 at the moment, there is a thread at AC about it. I am trying out a Panny Receiver at the moment with mixed results.
