PHILIPS not rated well. BOSE expensive. Sangean is known to me for I own a couple of their radios. Great sound, good sensitivity. from Amazon.com This is one sharp looking radio...it has a beautiful symetry about it....& yes, it sounds as good as it looks....so good it seems there is only one thing this Sangean cannot do that full size stereo systems can....& that is produce sound at levels that will distort your perception of time & space....& you know what?....i have outgrown the need for such things & am perfectly content to listen to music at decible levels that are comfortable to hear....in this Sangean, less is truely more....the WR-3 is packed with features i may never use, but it is great to have them anyway....love the blue info display....& how it "says" hello when you boot it up....i have parked this under the wide screen on the wall in my modestly sized living room, & it is accusticly & astheticly perfectly suited for the room, it looks so good it competes with the tv at being a focal point of attention....reception in both AM & FM is excellent & the remote is nice too, one glance is all you need to get it set up in seconds...the cabinet is heavy & sports an excellent finish....one complaint i have though.....is that stupid sticker they put on the FRONT of the unit...which, if they were considerate enough to have used a label that does not leave behind glue residue....would not have been a problem....but they were not considerate, & it is a problem, as it does leave behind a sticky, hard to clean mess right on the front of your new radio....how freaking lame!.....a minor point but worth noting non-the less.....the WR-3 is a unique peice of sophisticated, fine fidelity furniture that i highly recommend to all in need of such. from Amazon.com I listen to late night AM radio and unfortunately most radio manufacturers produce poor quality radio receivers nowadays; from what I read on HD radio it didn't sound that beneficial to me, signals are said to cover less territory. I also wanted a CD player which meant the Tivoli would come in three pieces - too large for my night stand - and I assumed it would not play MP3's because the literature made no mention. To top it off I felt the Tivoli was too expensive so I searched for other makes and found the Sangean. Surprisingly, I could find only one professional and one personal review which made me cautious - why so little mention/notice? from Amazon.com The remote also feels flimsy with those membrane-type of buttons that don't always register the first time. 2. The FM reception on this is considerably worse than my old JVC MX-44 compact component system (RIP), which is what the Sangean is replacing. This was surprising given Sangean's reputation for excellent radio reception. from Amazon.com From every angle, this is a beautiful radio. The first thing I did after plugging it in, was check a few local FM stations. They all came in very well, which was no surprise given Sangean's radio heritage. Be certain of one thing about this unit: it is a radio first, and then a CD player, audio file player, etc. from Amazon.com i also wanted a cd player which meant the tivoli would come in three pieces - too large for my night stand - and i assumed it would not play mp3's because the literature made no mention. from Amazon.com the radio does am/fm, cd (mp3), usb flash (though it sticks out the front) and up to 2gb sd cards. from Amazon.com it has great sound but the features are the real sell. from Amazon.com also, most of the cd players will play mp3s but not wma format. from Amazon.com 1 nit - the unit must be controlled by the remote. from Amazon.com
