Sony ICF-CD553RM

$200.00 Est. at Amazon

from shopping.msn.com
like i mentioned under weaknesses, the knob is used for the timer, which is not how, most radios are set up.
from www.amazon.com
this radio uses buttons instead of a knob for adjusting the volume, and for locating stations.
from www.amazon.com
the dial/knob is not for volume or tuning, which is somewhat counterintuitive.
from www.amazon.com
that knob really should be the volume.
from www.amazon.com
controls are intuitive, but for the timer knob (as someone else has noted).

Sony ICFC180

$31.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i really like the dual alarm, how the alarms are set (with knobs instead of holding slippery buttons), and the ease of seeing what time the alarm is set for.
from www.amazon.com
setting the alarm time is also very easy with a separate twist knob for each displayed alarm.
from www.amazon.com
-the knobs on the sides make setting the alarms very easy.
from www.amazon.com
the big knob on each side makes the alarm very easy to set.
from www.amazon.com
as mentioned above, the knobs used to set the alarms feel somewhat cheap, but they are nice because you can go up and down, as opposed to some alarms that only allow you to move forward.

Sony LIV

from www.bestbuy.com
this makes for a nice space saving footprint, but it also means that there are buttons, dials, and knobs all over it.
from www.amazon.com
there are two knobs on the two sides of the clock, because this is a dual-alarm clock.
from www.amazon.com
the old radio had analog tuning so the station would get lost anytime the knob was hit accidently like when cleaning the radio.
from www.amazon.com
the two alarms is fantastic, and i love the backwards/forwards knob to set them individually.
from www.amazon.com
unique time and alarm setting knob simplifies doing that.

Sangean RCR-1

$120.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
however, back-lighting intensity is not a problem because it is fully adjustable with a small knob on the bottom of the radio, and switchable between bright and dim by a button on the front.
from www.amazon.com
perhaps he didn't find the brightness adjustment knob.
from www.amazon.com
the contrast could use an adjustment knob but sadly there isn't one.

Sony ICF-CD843

$100.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the volume knob should be more conveniently located (maybe in the front) and should be digital.
from www.amazon.com
so why so many clock designers insist on black knobs on black radios with black lettering ...
from www.amazon.com
the only drawback is that the volume knob is on the back right side, which is bad if you sleep on the left.

Timex T617S NatureMP3

$55.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the main knob is a "smart knob" that performs multiple functions, including the volume and changing the time for the alarm clock.
from www.amazon.com
the volume knob is large and i like that it is a knob.
from www.amazon.com
especially nice is the large knob on the front which controls the volume among other things.
from www.amazon.com
like others have said, i found the display way too bright, even on the lowest setting, lite on smart knob and in disc window were way too bright with no dimming control.
from www.amazon.com

Teac R2

from www.amazon.com
push the clock adjust button, and scroll the tuning knob forward or backward.
from www.amazon.com
the price was reasonable, the handle on the side is convenient and the tuning dial and volume knob are the perfect size.
from www.amazon.com
entire thing is heavy with durable feeling knobs.
from www.amazon.com
there doesn't appear to be a "search" function, for example, so you're forced to tune for stations by turing the digital tuning knob.
from www.amazon.com
it has a quality feel: button and knobs are intuitively placed and of solid construction.

Tivoli Model Three

$275.00 Est. at Amazon

from shopping.yahoo.com
one big knob to tune the radio, a volume control, am/fm.
from www.amazon.com
the tivoli has a sensitive subtuning knob and led that shows optimal reception.
from www.amazon.com
the alarm is on a 12-hour cycle, so it will go off twice a day if you don't remember to disable it by one of a couple of different button-pressings & knob twists required to disable/enable the alarm.
