  • Very high quality, great sounding and great performing radio with an important caveat - read updated review!
Style: WR-11 Pattern Name: Radio
I absolutely love this radio! I've actually bought two of them because I liked them so much. One has a slight issue which I'll explain later. First, the sound quality is fantastic for a tabletop radio. I do not find it too "bassy", but keep in mind that I mainly listen to classical music. I could see where some people might think it sounded too bass heavy on an NPR newscast. If that is the case, you can place a cotton ball (or other sound dampening cloth) in the port on the back. It absolutely will not damage the speaker, so feel free to try this if you want to. The sensitivity of this radio is great on both AM and FM. Way better than my Tivoli Model One on AM in particular. It does not have 'soft muting' between AM stations. It has full sensitivity. If you are picking up noise and interference on AM, it is due to where you have the radio located. It is not the fault of the radio. AM is very much affected by interference from lighting, computers, motors, and just about everything else. The only solution is to move the radio or connect an external AM antenna (there are terminals for this). Do not blame the radio! I have no problem picking up weak stations. This radio was not designed for "DXing" but it will pick up a lot of distant stations at night. It's a good compromise between selectivity and fidelity. It is not a communications receiver with narrow filters. The FM sensitivity is surprisingly excellent. I use (and recommend) an external FM antenna. Internal or line cord FM antennas are poor at best. They may work for you in your situation; you can try it and see. I have my WR-11 connected to a large rooftop yagi and I use it to listen to a classical station more than 60 miles away. That is a pretty good feat these days considering the way the FCC has allowed the FM band to be degraded with a lot of additional FM stations as part of their so-called "AM Revitalization" program. In reality they are turning the FM band into an interference-ridden mess, just like the AM band. The sensitivity of this radio on FM compares favorably with my much more expensive tuners. The selectivity is also pretty good. The classical station I listen to on 90.5 if flanked by stations on 90.3 and 90.7 and I am in an area with dozens and dozens of strong local stations. I like the fact that this model has the power supply built in rather than being a wall wart (like the WR-15). The power supply does not draw much power when it is turned off. I measured it with my Kill-a-Watt and it actually draws only 1.1 watts when it is off (not 5 watts like another reviewer said). That is insignificant. When it is playing at moderate volume it draws 3-4 watts. And it has no audible hum (like the Tivoli has). A couple of notes about the audio. Yes, if you plug a cable into the aux input on the back, it will automatically disconnect the radio given that there is no separate switch for this function. Also if you plug in a pair of stereo headphones, it will play in both ears but the sound will be in mono, not stereo as claimed by another reviewer. Therefore, you can't use this radio as a tuner for your stereo system if you want full stereo sound. As far as the tuning dial accuracy is concerned, I would judge it to be excellent for an analog slide-rule type of dial. And the tuner stays tuned in quite solidly on one of my two sets. The other one does drift a bit, and this is the issue I mentioned earlier. I don't know why one of them drifts and the other one doesn't although the one that drifts is in my cabin where the temperature is not as well controlled. Temperature changes do affect tuning elements and that could certainly be part of the problem, but I have a feeling that even so, that one is just not quite as stable. If you get this radio, I think you are sure to love it. The wooden case is also very nice. It's a high quality product. UPDATE: Watch out, the tuner in the 40th Edition model is different and not as good as the original! Unfortunately, Amazon does not differentiate between the two models in the reviews, and this happens with other products also. They have changed the tuner design and it now incorporates the "soft muting" characteristic on AM. If you want to listen to a weak station, it will be heard at greatly reduced volume. I found that AM reception was generally poor compared to the original model, and also picked up a lot of static. I am not sure whether the static is coming from the internal power supply or just being conducted from the AM line. There is no high end on AM, it is all bass. Subjectively it sounds like they rolled off the frequency response above about 500 Hz! Unfortunately they also changed the tuner on FM as well and it has also been degraded. When tuning across a station, it comes in at three distinct points, accompanied by a distinct "click" sound as it locks onto each one. The middle one is the strongest one and the two outer ones will be heard at slightly reduced volume. In addition, stations can be heard at even lower volume beyond those points. This seems to be true even for stations that are not very strong. I don't know what they were thinking when they changed the design of the tuner. It is not an improvement. That said, the sound quality on FM is still excellent, and it is superior to other small table radios that I have tested. If I could give separate ratings for various features of the 40th Edition model I would rate it like this: * Sound quality on AM - 2 Stars (mediocre) * Sound quality on FM - 5 Stars (awesome) * AM tuner performance - 1 Star (horrible!) * FM tuner performance - 2 Stars (mediocre) I am not sure, but I suspect that Sangean may have changed the tuner design in the current production of the regular model WR-11 radios to the new design. I am not going to buy one to find out, because I already own two older ones which were fine. But if you buy either model of this radio, be advised that it might have the issues discussed above. Because of the poor tuner performance of the current design, I have decided to drop my overall rating from 5 stars to 3 stars. ... show more

  • Top Quality, simple analog controls
Style: WR-11SE Pattern Name: Radio
I expected room-filling, high fidelity sound. I was not disappointed. Unexpected was the pleasure of operating with simple analog controls as opposed to the button pushing and visibility limitations of digital. However, I believe I see evidence of digital signal processing under-the-hood; i.e., precise step-wise tuning, with excellent sensitivity and stability. There is some misinformation in the amazon spec’s and reviews, relative to the unit I received. First, the tuning display is indeed back-lit, with good visibility, whereas I came across a complaint that it was not. Second, an amazon spec says it requires lithium batteries, but it does not. There is a/c power input and provision to optionally plug in an external 12vdc supply. Third, there is verbiage and pictorials indicating the wr-11se has a dark walnut case, but the unit I received has a light blond wood color along with the “se” gold-tone faceplate. I’m OK with that, but others may care more about cosmetics. ... show more

  • A Big Hit!
Style: WR-11SE Pattern Name: Radio
Wow! This stylish little guy packs a lot of great sound in a small compartment. The wood is beautiful, the metallic face attractive, and the sound is gorgeous. The signal catching feature makes it super easy to select a strong radio station. I bought it for my elderly parents whose eyesight and dexterity are poor. So, simplicity and ease of use was key. They love it and listen to it every day, so I think I made a good choice. I just bought another one for myself so that I can have some music while I work, without having to fiddle with bluetooth connections and apps. ... show more

  • Fantastic Radio
Style: WR-11SE Pattern Name: Radio
Great sound, plug it in and it works right away, picks up stations easily, beautiful to look at, sturdy, intuitive to use. The metal knobs not only look good but are pleasant to touch and turn. This will be perfect for my disabled son, and I am sorely tempted to buy another one for myself.
