WR-15 Portable Analog Wood - radios (3.5 mm, Portable, Analog, Analog, AM, FM, MW, DC)

First of all the bad reviews that say AM reception or reception in general is not good and you couldn't get the station you wanted is not fair because people don't understand you can't have ANY radio in one place in one position if you want to get weaker stations better. ALL antennas are directional and to get stations for AM the radio has to change position as the antenna is inside, and for FM the wire has to change position. If you say you can't get a certain station turn the radio in a different direction! Move the FM antenna! Some bad reviews are not valid. This model is just like the home table radios of old, great sounding and reception and with a DSP tuner much better selectivity. Location is key for best sound. Corners and book shelves are better than in the open or a flat wall for a nice warm sound. And if you are far from lots of stations you have provision for external antennas on AM and FM and don't forget they are directional. Update to this review Mar. 4/20 To eliminate the noise interference on AM that sometimes depending on location, makes it near impossible to get weaker stations. This can be done on the back of the radio or for the more technically inclined from inside the cabinet. On the back locate the two AM antenna screws(GND and ANT) and loosen the screws a bit so they are sticking out a bit. With a jumper wire with alligator clips connect the wire from the GND screw to the GND(threaded) outside of the FM external antenna terminal. A larger alligator clip will go over it and hold. Now there will be a significant noise reduction. Next, take another jumper about 15 to 20 inches long and connect it to the AM ANT screw and just stretch it out straight. That's all and the noise will be reduced more and AM sensitivity will come way up. The wire FM antenna still can go over the FM F connector. The AM GND to FM ant. jack(GND side) can be done permanently from inside the cabinet. This will dramatically increase AM sensitivity by lessening noise 80% As for any inaccuracy of the dial pointer here's a fix. Pull off the tuning knob and you will see 2 screws holding the pointer. Remove one of them. Loosen the other and reposition the pointer. Tighten the one screw and leave the other out. This will fine tune the pointer for accuracy. Good luck!

Além de bonito, o acabamento do rádio é impecável. O recurso que atenua o ruído entre as estações funciona muito bem, mas também elimina a recepção de emissoras distantes ou com sinal muito fraco. O som dele é bem equilibrado e bem melhor que o WR-16SE que prioriza os sons graves. Adicionei um receptor Bluetooth P2 na entrada auxiliar para o uso do celular, e com isso possibilita ouvir rádios do mundo inteiro e minhas playlists.

Amazing quality in build. Feels like a vintage radio from back in the 1960s. But the sound is very good quality for what appears to be a single speaker radio. There’s even a bass tuning port on the back side of the radio along with a few modern day features. I’m running the radio out in my shop so that I can listen to local broadcasts on FM and AM without having to use my internet connection. The really cool feature is that the radio runs on 12VDC at around 1.5 amps, so I can use a backup supply in the event of a power outage. The optional antenna terminals are a nice feature as well. The sound quality is pretty good. It’s not like J## quality, but it sounds deep and rich at normal listening levels. There is no blue tooth feature on this device but a talented audiophile could rig up an independent blue tooth device to plug into the AUX port on the radio and there’s a onob setting for AUX on the AM/FM dial.

Si tienes nostalgia de la apariencia de un receptor analógico de radio AM y FM, compacto y sencillo, este de Sangean es ideal. Para no estar completamente desactualizado, el fabricante añade la posibilidad de conectar un auxiliar (bonita opción para usar un adaptador Bluetooth). Complementan el paquete interesantes alternativas para antena AM o FM, de modo que la recepción sea lo más fiel posible. He tenido otro de marca reconocida -que deja mucho qué desear- y me quedo con este.

The Sangean WR-15 is a beautiful looking and great sounding radio. I couldn't believe such a big sound could come out of such a small radio. The sound of this radio has got to be heard to be believed. If you find the bass to be too boomy, especially on AM, just stuff a sock in the port on the back of the radio. The sensitivity/selectivity of this radio is just amazing. If you're looking for a quality table radio that sounds absolutely amazing, has a beautiful retro look and is inexpensive, then this radio is it. I guarantee you won't regret purchasing this radio!
