Product Description:
The versatile Horizon Duo offers big-system sound that fits virtually anywhere.

The unique shape of Horizon Duo is one key to its exceptional performance. Left and right full-range speakers are isolated from each other in separate acoustic chambers for rich, distinct stereo sound. Another key is proprietary BassTrac audio processing for clean bass at all listening levels. An optional HRDI external dock lets you listen to your music while it charges your iPod. High contrast display automatically adjusts to ambient light 10 FM and 5 AM station presets Dual independent alarm clock with sleep timer 360-degree Snooze bar (touch-sensitive outer rim) Time and settings are saved (no battery required) Dimensions - Height 5.5 x Width 12.875 x Depth 8 (140x327x203mm)

- Great sound, terrible reception
After being very happy with my Boston Acoustics Receptor Radio, I confidently ordered this Horizon Duo. The sound is everything one would expect from BA: powerful, clear, and well-balanced---far better than one should be able to expect from such a reasonably priced unit.

The radio reception, on the other hand, is dismal. I can only pull in one station, poorly, in an area where my Receptor Radio pulls in dozens quite clearly. Fiddling with the antenna helps a little, but mostly allows it to go from no reception to poor reception.

I may have received a lemon, but reviews here and elsewhere suggest that at least a few others have had similar experiences.

- Excellent product, except for the tuner
I purchased this for my bedroom for use on a shelf with a cd player and an iPod. I've lived with it for 2 months now and had the chance to use it quite a bit. The build quality seems quite good and it has all of the essential features you could want in a mini stereo system, including a neat little remote. The controls are fairly easy to use and the design is uncluttered. One minor quibble is that the top is slanted, so stacking anything on top of it can be a problem if you're tight on space.

The snooze function on the clock is very cool, though I think they could have made setting the alarm functions more intuitive.

For it's size, this is definitely one of the best sounding speaker systems I've ever heard. The bass is full and dynamic. The high frequencies ... Read More

- Great Stereo Sound at This Price Point
I already own two Boston Acoustic Horizon Solos, which I bought on Amazon for about $85. One is in the bedroom and the other is in the workout room. My friend urged me to get the two-speaker Duo, so I finally capitulated and use it in the kitchen. My review will be based on my comparison between the $85 Solo and the $115 Duo.

Speaker Sound: The Duo wins. While I love the Solo's full high-fidelity sound, the Duo speakers really fill the kitchen with ease.

AM Reception: I'd have to give a slight nod to the Duo. In the kitchen I had to rotate the Solo to fine-tune 570AM. I don't have to touch the Duo. This is fortunate because the size and shape of it make it impractical for rotating the radio to maximize AM reception from its internal ferrite antenna.

- Great Radio
Great sound for such a small unit and the reception is very good. The LCD can be dimmed to neer off so sleeping should'nt be a problem. Very easy to use and set presets and bass & treble make a big sound difference.

- Good Sound...Great Value
You know that you bought the real deal right out of the box. The shipping weight of this radio is 11 lbs with the bulk of that weight in the speakers. The sound quality is excellent and the radio sensitivity is very good. The controls take some time to get used to (a lot less time if you read the instructions first!!). The clock/alarm portion of the radio works well too with multiple alarms for those "hard to start" mornings.

The only detail that I don't care for is the FM "antenna" - a piece of wire about 8 feet long that needs to be stretched out vertically to provide best reception. The antenana can be hidded behind a headboard but it's hard to hide it anywhere else.

As a competitor to the Bose Wave radio, the Horizon Duo rates a grade of B compared to the Bose ... Read More
