Review on Radio receiver Sangean WR-45 white by Bali ᠌

The “pipe” towering above the body of the device is by no means only a tribute to retro aesthetics and design effects, which in themselves can cause a desire to own such a thing. It also has a practical purpose, which ultimately gives the main aesthetic effect, which is expressed in the character and quality of the sound. This is a low-frequency horn that provides, without exaggeration, amazing depth and control in the “bass” range for a device of this size. Relying on an unexpectedly solid low-frequency basis for such a kid, the sound of the WR-45 as a whole acquires fullness and warmth, which I have not yet heard from "portable" acoustics. And although formally it has the same power as the "sevens" WR and DDR, the sound of the 45th is felt as more massive. And at the same time - as more comfortable, allowing you to listen to it for as long as you like. And when you stop admiring the receiver and look the other way, you generally forget that a device that belongs to the category of portable sounds in the room, and not acoustics five times larger in size. Having inherited from the WR-7 and DDR-7 the confidence of FM reception enviable for an antenna hidden in the case and the same confident reception of a signal via Bluetooth at an impressive distance from the source, the WR-45 has made a serious step forward in sound quality. Which makes it for me the best desktop and bedside radio to date and the best mobile speaker for sounding a phone, tablet, or laptop. A nice souvenir is attached to the device - its toy copy, reduced by ten times, on a Velcro stand. But if one day Sangean releases a real device of such a meager size that plays just as well, or even better, I won't be surprised. Miracles, of course, do not happen. But, as with children, there are portable devices that behave just like adults. And among their producers - those who persistently strive for this.
