My ears are ready to retire!

Depends as the posts above request on what your specifics are in terms or room size and what you want to spend.

I move my bedroom clock radio BOSE wave radio down to my garage when I wash my car and I am surprised how pleasant it is for background music. Plays pretty loud without distortion.

I bet you could pick up a used one for peanuts. I don't think they make them anymore. They might only play CDs though, not sure how the product line changed since 2000....it is reliable, I'll say that and I think it can take other input sources and has a nice remote.

He said all in one. I thought that meant built in speakers. Once you start with separate speakers, there are some pretty nice small ones that can be expensive and you can get a nice expensive integrated amp that has a digital music tuner. He said he was retiring from audiophilia. It was just a thought. maybe there are other things like the Bose Wave out there - I’m sure there are lots of options but I’ve never looked into it. I know my son got a speaker from Walmart for $8 that links to his iPhone. He says it sounds fine. Thankfully I’ve never heard it.

I doubt a $100 pair of loudspeakers are good, although I guess that depends on what good means to you. My son would probably think they are awesome.

Hey @analoguefan - sounds like you are not really leaving audiophiledom, just shrinking its footprint in your house.

Thats’s great. Be careful- soon you’ll get a turntable and start back down the rabbit hole.

It’s not a garage system, it’s a bedroom clock radio. When I bring it down to the garage, It makes me realize how much time I am obsessing over every superficial scratch on my car or dirt every time have to change a CD. Otherwise I would only have daylight or my stomach hunger pangs to make me aware that more time is passing than I wanted it to.
