Poor Am Reception

Poor Am Reception
The Bose Symphony sound system is incredible, but the AM reception is excrutiatingly poor. We have a 50,000 watt AM station here in Cincinnati (700), and I have trouble picking it up more than 50 miles away. Lower-powered AM stations are almost unavailable unless within a few miles of their towers.
FM reception is OK, so it's not an antenna problem. BTW, my Chrysler Infinity system picks up that AM station 500 miles away! Still stock antenna on the roof (Avant model). Any ideas on what I can check, or add (short of replacing the whole unit)?

Re: Poor Am Reception
I have the same problem with the Audi Symphony stereo in my 2000 A6 2.8. It's not the local/distance mode for the antenna. Dealer tells me I need a new wiring harness, diversity box, and booster to make it better all at the low-low price of $818.00. Seems excessive just to get good am reception. Be interested to know where I could get these parts aftermarket.
