Very good device for small medium sized rooms

Nice appearance. Nice features. Good sound. But the volume is only enough for a small room. I had bad luck with the radio under the kitchen counter. They couldn't pick up local FM radio and looked terrible in their flashy plastic casing. That's how I came to this table. Looks nice but if you spill water or do something like that it drowns out the radio. This is not due to the device, but to the size of the speakers. I found that the USB port on the back of the device (great idea) doesn't…

Pros
  • Power supply type: wired electric
Cons
  • neutral

Good upgrade from WR-11

Sangean WR-16 is a nice upgrade from WR-11. I have a WR-11 in my kitchen, a great radio that I use every day. I bought this WR-16 for use in my home office and as a computer speaker. Why not just buy another WR-11? AUX switch. The WR-16 has a dedicated AUX setting so I can have my computer plugged into it at all times without having to pull the FM selector switch, unlike the WR-11. As far as I can tell, this radio is the same as the WR-11, just with an added switch and Bluetooth functionality…

Pros
  • Stereo headphone output and AUX input for additional audio sources such as MP3 player, iPod/iPhone
Cons
  • Very expensive

SANGEAN WR-16 VS TIVOLI MODEL ONE

Buying something as simple as a basic radio is a lot harder than it needs to be as there's no real way to get a site by side comparison without buying both which I did. I will try not to repeat other reviews as most of them are pretty accurate. Here's the result: TIVOLI ONE MODEL I've been watching the Model One for a few years and liked the minimalist aesthetic but didn't like the top price, so I bought a used model at auction. Although in good condition, it needed some work. The first thing…

Pros
  • Components Included: Power Cord, Wired FM Antenna and User Manual
Cons
  • Interchangeable
