AM/FM ANALOG RADIO BLK

la calidad de materiales es buena, y la sintonizacion de estaciones es eficiente, aunque debido a que solo cuenta con capacidad para baterías AA, se descargan mas rápidamente, comparado con una radio de baterías D. es el único inconveniente encontrado por mi.

Sangean held up to all the rave reviews I read. The sound clarity for the size of this radio is way beyond acceptable. Tunes in lots and lots of stations and holds the signal. Also LOVE that this radio has treble and bass dials. You can listen to talk stations and distinctly discern what is being said, and then dial back the treble and add some bass for music. Can't ask for more in a reasonably priced portable radio. What a great value for the money!

It's very common that when you turn on an analog AM/FM radio with the volume all the way down, you hear a slight hiss coming from the speaker(s). It's simply from the electronics being on, and is called the "noise floor". With most radios, it's that normal, quiet, smooth hiss that is hard to hear if you're more than a foot away. Not so with the PR-D6. It's absolutely horrible. With the radio on, and volume all the way down, you're treated to a loud, rough and scratchy noise floor that sounds like the cheapest electronics possible were used. It's easily heard from three feet away using AM, FM, antenna on, antenna off, inside the house, outside the house... doesn't matter. It's the radio itself making the noise. If you then turn up the volume to a low listening level, the noise from the electronics is still so loud that it's almost equal to the signal. Just want to make sure that sinks in to anyone reading... a slightly bigger than pocket-sized radio that's perfect for playing at low volume close to you, and you can't because the noise floor is so bad. You could if you had to, but it would suck. This is most definitely NOT due to any kind of external interference like RFI, EMI, or weather conditions affecting the signal. It's the PR-D6 making the noise all by itself. I have decades of experience with many analog, and digital AM/FM radios, guitar amps, PA systems, recording studio equipment, and also have radios sitting next to me right this minute that do not make this noise. It's a shame because this is a very nice looking radio, has good sound for a little handheld thing, the bass and treble controls actually work and are an excellent feature, the dial indicator is calibrated well, good sensitivity and selectivity, feels sturdy and weighty, etc. It has everything going for it! But the noise level of whatever crappy components used inside truly bring the PR-D6 from what should've been a 5 star review, and a good value at the price, to a 2 star review, and not worth what I paid. This is a real disappointment, and frustrating since this was to be a late Christmas gift to someone who appreciates radios. I am not setting my expectations too high as I have cheaper radios with a normal noise floor. My only hope is that I got a defective unit that can be replaced with a good one. But if they're all like this, I'll be returning it for something else.

All very good T.Y.

Estoy decepcionado de este radio, tiene muy mala calidad de audio... Anteriormente ya he comprado cuatro radios Sangean de modelos distintos, con una calidad impresionante... Cuando vi este radio me gustó también, y lo ordené, pero cuando lo recibí: Oh desepción..!!! Una mala recepción, mala selectividad, y un sonido que deja mucho que desear, sin contar que llegó incompleto, no traía la antena, ni la correa transportadora... Lo tuve en mis manos solo media hora y de inmediato lo devolví... Me asombro que Sangean, una marca que solo tiene artículos de calidad probada, tenga para venta un producto con estos estándares de calidad tan bajo... No lo recomiendo si eres un aficionado a la radio y te gusta la calidad de sonido...
