Pros
- The device combines two advantages that are characteristic of almost all Sangean products. The first is the sound, which in its naturalness and scale greatly exceeds the standard expectations from mobile devices. The second is an elegant and completely non-standard design by the utilitarian standards of today's audio equipment, which makes you want to collect models of this company in the same way as you can collect vintage equipment. Which is what I personally do. In addition, thanks to this dignity, you, puzzling over how to choose an original gift, and stumble upon such a “souvenir”, understand that a solution has been found.
Cons
- I have no complaints about the device. But to find fault, if you wish, you can do anything. If we set such a goal in relation to the WR-45, then perhaps someone will find it a disadvantage that the most striking feature of its design - a horn stylized as a gramophone tube - deprives the model of the real portability that its small-sized predecessors, the Sangean WR-7, have and DDR-7. You can easily take them with you anywhere, even putting them in a small bag, or just in a jacket pocket. With the WR-45, this number will not work. Its horn requires great care when transporting the model and rather translates it into the category of stationary in terms of use. But unconditional portability in this case is sacrificed to the same unconditional progress in terms of sound quality.
