Hi,

I'm desperately looking for a compact stereo to put in my bedroom that allows the following:
- USB port to read from a USB Memory stick
- Clock with alarm
- But, and that's the problematic point, I would like that the wake-up plays the USB drive randomly.

It's not a problem to find a compact stereo with USB capability. Not a problem to activate the wake-up on the USB. More difficult but sometimes possible to choose a specific track on the USB to play at the wake-up. But not possible that the player chosses a random track from the USB stick to wake me up.

Some compact stereo that I've seen can randomly plays a USB stick, but you have to manually press the "shuffle" button, and when you shut down the compactstereo, this setting is of course lost.

If any of you have an idea of a specific model on the market, I would be very happy... Oh yeah, I'm not looking at the top quality, a power of 2*5W (2*10 is better) is sufficient, and I'm not expecting a wonderful sound quality, but something correct. And my budget is max 200€ (less is better :D ).

Thanks a lot

Well I don't think you can be weaked up by a randomly chosen track. I think no one made this possibility on their stuff. I find it logical that you need to chose a track, you won't wanna wakeup with all kind of music :P

Your best bet would probably be a MID, something like a Smart Q5 or V5 as it has an OS (Linux) in which you could write a script that would operate at a specified time.
NB. No idea of the Speaker output so you would need to check that.

OK thanks. I do not agree with Mr. Dj M. that this would not be a great fetaure. You can be waken up with radio, where you have no control at all. I could put on my USB stick only tracks that I would judge OK for the wakeup.

Well I should say the ability to use a playlist for the wakeup function, that would be logical. Also the random function on the playlist then, but if we ever going to see this as a standard...

Maybe if there's an aplication made you can use that on a MID indeed :wink:
