[Shop-talk] Speaker signal out to RCA input

[pethier at comcast.net]

Does Sony currently use this XDR-F1HD unit (or one this good) as a front end in table radio?  The review said they thought that is was used in the XDR-S3HD, but that unit is apparently no nonger produced.

I have a Bose unit with CD changer at home and the front end on it is way better than the receiver system I was using.  I was thinking of getting the radio-only version for the office to replace the boombox I have here that has real problems pulling FM stations in this building.  (Don't bother suggesting streaming on my computer:  My employer has it blocked.)  If Sony has a radio with real front-end performance for substantially less than the Bose, I'd take a chance on it.
