HIGH FIVE

We have the big Bose Acoustic Wave II FM/CD player.

It is our stereo set.

When we moved out here we left all our components behind and went to this one unit.

At a certain age you don't hear all the hi-fi sounds anyway but actually this set is unbelievably satisfying.

But there is a problem after ten years.

The CD player is defunct. It skips.

So I finally got the 5 CD player which goes along with the big unit.

It came today. It is pretty good. Well engineered in that it slips right under the old radio and wires itself into it very neatly. Well, I had to move the wires but the setup was easy.

So right now, it is on rotation with Jarrett, Evans and Brubeck. I can play discs randomly or in sequence. I can play cuts (bands?) in sequence or all five disc bands in random order.

And so on.

There is a new remote which replaces the old radio unit and incorporates all these moves.

Very nice.

And it plays without skipping!
