Because HD radio is a relatively new technology, the cost of HD radios is a bit on the high side. For example, the Radiosophy Web site lists its MultiStream radio for $269. This compact, tabletop radio has a 4� x 8� , removable receiver (it can be removed from its speakers) that can be easily taken from room to room. It also has a large, easy-to-read LCD monitor that can be read from across the room. Radiosophy also says the MultiStream HD radio receives everything – analog AM and FM, HD AM and FM and sub channels.

HD Radio prices for Boston Acoustics’ HD Recepter radio HD with HD Technology from iBiquity Digital have not yet been announced.. Boston Acoustics says this dynamic, tabletop, next-generation HD Tabletop delivers enhanced audio quality, fidelity and reception, new information features - and The Boston Sound™. The company went on to say that the Recepter Radio HD embodies the bright promise of HD Radio technology. You can get more information on Boston Acoustics HD Radio prices and availability, by visiting the Boston Acoustics Web site.

Car owners who would like to get into HD Technology radio have a broader range of HD radio prices from which to choose.

As examples of HD radio prices for car decks, Best Buy has the Kenwood EZ500 for $249.99, the KDC-MP228 for $149.99 and the KDC-MP528 for $199.99. All three of these decks are multi-functional with MP3 playback as well as HD reception.

Another example of HD Radio prices is Circuit City with the Panasonic CO-C9701U In-Dash CD Player at $455.99. Plus, Crutchfield.com has the Kenwood KTC-HR100MC HD-compatible tuner for $399.99 and the Eclipse HDR-105 tuner for $449.99.

HD car radios are already prevalent enough that they can be found on eBay. I recently searched “Completed Items�: for HD radios and found the following:

· JVC KD-SHX900 sold for $399

· New Kenwood CD car radio with Sirius, and HD Technology – had a Buy It Now price of $99

· New Kenwood Car Radio MP3/Sirius/HD/ Player/Receiver sold for $116.95

· :Panasonic MXE-CQCB8901U MP3 HD Radio could have been purchased for $318

· New Kenwood EZ700SR car radio CD/MP3/HD receiver sold for $243.95

High-end HD Technology receivers are harder to get a fix on. The only three companies currently offering these receivers are Yamaha, Audio Design Associates and Day-Sequerra.

The Yamaha RX-V4600 with HD Technology lists for $1205 at Brandnamz and $1349.99 at Etronics. And BizRate shows five other online stores (plus Etronics and Brandnamz) at prices ranging from $1195 to $1350.

The ADA Quadri-tune receiver is expected to release during the fourth quarter of this year and, of this writing, the company has not announced a price. Day-Sequerra has announced its M2 and M4 receivers will start at $2995.
