9. Cambridge SoundWorks i765
Editors' rating: 7.3
The good: The Cambridge SoundWorks i765 is a high-end stereo tabletop clock radio with DVD/CD player and integrated iPhone/iPod compatible dock; large, easy to read LCD display; dual alarms with unusually flexible snooze/volume options; auxiliary line-in for connection to non-iPod devices; supports iPod video output; RDS text support; superior sound quality (for a tabletop radio); excellent FM reception; 24 AM/FM station presets; includes bass, treble tone controls; headphone jack.
The bad: Very expensive; no video output for iPhone; lacks HD Radio, satellite radio, and network audio support; remote and front panel controls could be more intuitively arranged.
The bottom line: The i765 adds DVD playback and a built-in iPod dock to the Cambridge SoundWorks' great-sounding tabletop radio, but less-than-intuitive controls and a rich price tag limit its appeal.
