Hi! I am starting my first Audio setup and I'm on a limited budget, What's a good cheap Micro Hi-fi system? comparable to the form of the Bose Wave but not to the quality :) thanks.

It's not hi-fi unless its wiring and circuitry consists of pure silver mined from the core of Venus itself.

 

What's your budget?

below 100 dollars :(, that's probably a ridiculous budget, but that's all I can spend right now.

i think you have to be clearer. are you just looking for a source (something to play your music) -- you mentioned a CD player

I'm sorry but you're asking for the moon here. You're looking for "hi-fi" that will better the bose for less than 100 bucks? Your best bet will be to get a sony boombox that will take cds. If you want something separate then you'll have to look through craigslist to find anything old and used. Anything new will definitely be more than 100. Especially if you want "hi-fi"

By "Bose Wave", you mean this?

Sounds to me like you're looking for a boombox. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=boombox+%24100

 

(Wrong subforum, btw. This is for headphone amps.)

 sorry for wrong subforum, first time posting, and I don't mean boomboxes specifically, but could be a boombox, I was just looking for recommendations, and yes that is the Wave I am talking about, I want something like :
