The Bottom Line The Sony XDR-S3HD lowers the price for HD Radio without compromising on quality. The 820HD is a top-notch tabletop clock radio with support for the latest all-digital HD Radio format. Though it does include an HD Radio tuner at a fairly low price, the no-frills iLuv i168 doesn't offer much to distinguish itself from the clock radio competition. The Recepter Radio HD adds digital reception and stereo sound to Boston Acoustics' classic AM/FM radio. While its built-in DVD player is going to disappoint videophiles, the Polk Audio I-Sonic sounds impressive for its size and offers a bevy of cool features not found on competing tabletop audio systems.
