Brilliant product. Beautiful in form. Sturdy. Good tuning. Great sound. Fills my whole kitchen living room with sound. Excellent analogue product without all the digital wireless BS. Couldn't be improved in any way.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Relatively small, three knob simple, very listenable sound.

My 80+ year old Dad asked me to find him a new radio. He wanted a tabletop model and I knew I needed to find something nice but easy to use. He already has a hi tech tv, laptop, smart phone etc. so I didn't want another overly complex device that I would have to support. I looked at a lot of fancy big name units but they were a little complicated. This one has only three knobs, and appeared to be a quality unit. When I got it I unboxed it to check it out at home before setting it up in his apartment. i was instantly surprised by the sound this little box generates. The bass seemed a little boomy for my type of music but that is going to vary depending on the radio station. Also such a small driver in a ported enclosure will usually do that as it is only capable of going so deep in the low end. Many FM stations also overemphasize the bass. My initial impression was that I would prefer a little more high end as well but overall it was well balanced and very listenable. After letting it play for a while on one of my favorite stations I decided it was actually very listenable and I could be happy with one myself on my desk or in my workshop. The tuning knob has a certain precision to it and is easy to tune in to a strong signal. You can also turn the volume knob all the way without distortion at the maximum. The bottom line is he is very happy with it and has said so several times. He listens to talk radio and FM country music as well. He is very pleased with the AM section and has had a great time tuning in some of the very distant night time AM stations. The included external FM antenna is just a piece of wire but helps with even local radio reception when you extend it out. This little box is perfect for his needs.

Longstanding volume control defect still not fixed

Purchased this radio almost a decade ago and loved the sound but after a few months the volume control went bad and it would only put out sound at nearly blast. This new purchase has the same problem and it emerged within a week! They never fixed volume control defect.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A great product with great sound for its size and cost

A great product with great sound for its size and cost. The radio tuner pulls in lots of stations yet does a good job of rejecting weak signals. The sound is very good and can fill a reasonably large room without distortion. I used it with both an iPod and a PONO player. both sounded very good. Highly recommended.

I love this radio! Get one and hear subtle notes lost on cheap ugly units. I have two, one for home and one for my shop.

The best of its kind out there

Terrific product--about the only one worth considering for a counter-top (or otherwise) radio with great sound, simple but sophisticated controls. And, guess what? No digital read-out! No needless clock. So all the cost goes into the build quality & attractive, sensible design. It simply sounds great! Also, if you check the names behind this, they're audio pros from way back--a track record of innovation & generally fine audio products. I talked to Joe at Audio Advisor & he said, "This is the best out there for a table radio. I wonder why we don't carry it?"

A Great, Simple, Good Sounding AM - FM Radio with simplel controls !

I have had this radio since it was introduced several years ago. It is now placed on a shelf in a medium sized room and it plays almost daily. A good antenna is essential for good reception with this radio. It simply plays what ever is being broadcast. If the station is weak and perhaps very distant, the sound may not be the best. However, I have never been disappointed with the sound coming from the one speaker. Several have asked me about the radio and they comment on the great sound it produces. I do on occasion listen to talk radio and I have never had a problem with the sound quality. It seems to play music as well as the human voice very well. I have used this radio as a amp and speaker for a small xm Sirius receiver on several occasions and the sound was very good. It is small and compact and can be easily placed on a table or shelf. It has a very long cord that that is very much appreciated.
