Good FM radio, mediocre sound quality AM

Sounds very good on FM, unfortunately I was expecting better AM sound quality. In comparison, the Sangean PR-D4W sounds similar to FM broadcasts on local stations when using the widest bandwidth. The Sony sounds muddy like an old '50s radio and it's hard to make out what's being said at normal listening levels. No bandwidth switch to improve sound quality. For the price it can be great for FM listening and casual AM listening, but overall I prefer my old Sony ICF-38 for its cleaner AM sound.
