A winner:
I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to audio and I needed a decent radio for my office since my blankety-blank IT manager won't let us stream music anymore. This little Sony am/fm is a winner. Very contemporary design and great sound. Sony seems to always manufacture a great product for the best price. Such a concept!
Did not work for me:
All I wanted was a good quality radio to get my favorite FM station (classical music) while reading in bed . I thought getting new technology would improve on my 30+ years old Panasonic night reception of an admitedly weak station. I received this model in the afternoon and immediately tuned it to my station: Nothing! In day time! The old radio was receiving just fine.

Excellent Table Top Radio:
At well under $100 (I paid closer to $50 at Amazon), this mono radio is a bargain. It gets static free FM reception with its built-in antennae (my favorite station is 75 miles away).

I thought this slick black radio was so good that I bought another.
