We tried to resist, honest, but it's just impossible to turn a blind eye to the similarities here.
Onkyo's CBX-Z10 and CBX-Z20
iPod-friendly CD players do manage to include ten-watts of amplification, video output, a headphone jack, the firm's Acoustic Drive speaker technology, a CD player, and an obligatory iPod dock, but what's not listed in the specs that you still get (for better or worse) is the eerie resemblance to Bose's Wave Radio. Furthermore, the Z10 looks to come dressed in white while the Z20 dons a black motif, and aside from "improved audio quality" from the latter, they each look to be identical. Priced at ¥43,000 ($361) and ¥50,000 ($420), respectively, these two units are even
priced like a
Bose, but at least Onkyo bothers to tell you the frequency range of the drivers within.
