Customer Reviews

Superb sound and easy to use.
The main requirement of a radio is that it produces excellent sound quality and that is exactly what this Sony radio does. The bass is perfect (my partner's a professional bassist, so I'm fussy!)and I rarely have to use the mega bass facility. I mainly listen to classical which has the widest range of sound covering the whole orchestra & jazz which requires a full bass sound without overpowering the top and middle, so it's a good test and the balance is perfect. Speech is very clear and easy to listen to. The tuning wheel is precise and isn't too loose, so it doesn't retune if accidentally brushed.The tuning dial lights up so it's very clear. Simple on/off switch, again nicely stiff to avoid mistakes, but easy to use. If I had a criticism it would be the comfort of the headphones. I use them for a couple of hours at a time and by then I want to take them out, but this depends vey much on ear shape and length of use.I am considering buying an in-ear variety, but despite this I would still buy this radio again as it is excellent.

Simple Sony Quality Delivers Excellent Sound
Like many of the others reviewers, I wanted a simple personal radio that sounded good, had adequate reception and didn't cost the earth. I visited a number of retailers, trying out about 15 radios across a number of well known brands. This little cracker stood out for it's quality, cost and outstanding sound reproduction. I use it for walking to and from work and with a small speaker when in my office. Absoluely Ideal. If you don't include this radio in your shortlist of options you could be missing out on an excellent deal!!

Easy to use, good reception on FM, good value
I wanted a small radio for use on the move which could be used without referring to an instruction manual and without needing to put my glasses on. This little Sony unit does the business. The controls are well spaced and simple to operate, with the tuning wheel have a good degree of resistance so it stays in the right place once you've selected a station. The sound quality is very acceptable. Only 4 stars because the supplied headphones are pretty useless - I bought a cheap pair of Panasonic "outside ear" phones which are comfortable and give very good sound quality.
