Satie, these things are intriguing, are they not?It jives with an observation of mine. One of the most alluringly musical sounds may come from a basic alarm radio, or an old transistor radio. For all their relative SQ shortcomings, they have one or a few basic strengths.
The alarm radio has one speaker. Just that simple driver is capable of issuing a very cohesive -- time-aligned -- musical stream.
The transistor radio, in addition, may have the benefit of DC electronics, as opposed to AC. The same goes for an ancient cassette recorder that I used to have (in days when not even Walkmans were around). When traveling, I could enjoy Herbert von Karajan and the BPO to a surprising extent...out of a 3" speaker!
