Rating: Summary: A disappointment Review: First, it is a great size. After that things begin to decline. The reception for both am and fm is poor. I tried the radio under a variety of conditions and never got a clear signal. I'm afraid I can't recommend this. It's bad enough that I'm ordering another radio.
Rating: Summary: Decent sound quality and reception Review: This is the best tiny radio I know of. I've tried others that are built into headphones (too heavy!) or strap onto the wrist (sound & reception less good) or that sell for cheap at the drugstore (awful reception). From the suburbs it pulls in the NPR station just fine (some small radios don't). I like that the tuner is analog, not digital. In my experience, the cheap digital tuners in other small radios cut in and out annoyingly on marginal stations. Sounds great with better headphones (I use Grado SR80). I lent it to my girlfriend and she kept saying, "It's so cute!"
