Customer Reviews
How Much More Boom Could a Boomer Ask For?
This radio is far too cool for it's own good. It looks just like the one your Dad (or your Grandad) had in his office. Simulated Walnut wood cabinet and a matching brown plastic base/stand. BIG dials and a large faceplate that shows the fm/am bandwidths in FULL detail... You won't have any problem locating stations on this puppy! Everything screams retro cool-- except the SONY logo in the speaker's left hand top corner (which doesn't attract from the overall appearance at all).
The only thing that doesn't make this radio a complete retro experience is the BOOMING rich sound-- no "tinny" tones here... Unreal sound for such an inexpensive radio. I put this up against my portable Sony worldwide radio... and this simplified Sony sounded BETTER... Much better... and reception is GREAT!
If you don't need a CD or cassette player or a clock (and be honest, most people don't... I have at least three combo machines of some sort scattered around the house)... This is perfect... and for the older listeners-- a very cool reminder of days gone by.
A RADIO FOR THE MATURE LISTENER
A GREAT SIMPLE TO USE AM/FM RADIO WITH FANTASTIC FULL SOUND. GREAT SELECTIVITY. NO UNNEEDED BELLS AND WHISTLES TO BRING THE PRICE UP. LOOKS GREAT IN THE KITCHEN!
radio heaven
I have several radio/casette/cd combo players in my home, but none of them get more than a few stations clearly, so I decided to spring for this retro-looking little radio. Boy, am I pleased! It not only gets more stations than my car radio, but they sound crystal-clear too! I put it in my kitchen and it makes cooking a lot more fun. As far as the look goes: it is retro, but I was a bit shocked at first. It's like something your dad, or you (if you're my age:) used to have in the seventies. I got over the initial shock though: now I think it makes my kitchen seem more cozy and reminds me of my mom's old radio on our kitchen window sill.
