I was looking for a decent componet radio, doesn't have to be anything fancy, just something i could plug either my grado's or my speakers to... and it doesn't have to be a headphone-out port, i could just plug it into an amp that i've got lying around. I'm nearly as serious about "uber-cables", etc. as some of you guys/gals, so just something that'd get the job done, 50-70 bucks or so.

anyone? or do you recommend me post in another category?

There aren't a lot of people here who listen to radio (or at least not on their hi-fi setups). I'd suggest going over to the Radio forum at www.audioasylum.com for tuner suggestions.

I picked up an Onkyo T-4130 FM Tuner at a Pawn Shop for $25 and it works fine.

Try this website to research a decent tuner http://www.fmtunerinfo.com/index.html
You can get a good kenwood or pioneer for under a $100 on ebay .
I love my kenwood tuner. You might be surprised at how good fm can sound.

i was thinking about getting one of those Tivoli iPal's, as i could use the battery-powered functionality to use with either my ipod or cd player or laptop....any thoughts on the tivoli's? anyone have one?

Tivolis are great little units. A bunch of us have the Model two and love them. They have a nice warm sound like some of the vintage gear. The tuner is quite easy to use as well. I definitely prefer the Tivoli over the various multimedia speakers I've had and heard.
