WR-16SE AM/FM/Bluetooth/Aux-in/USB Phone Charging 45th Anniversary Special Edition Wooden Cabinet Radio (Dark Walnut with Rose Gold)

I read a ton of reviews for this before i ordered it. I am happy with my purchase. Some said their Sangean was not real wood. This rose gold and walnut IS true and genuine walnut and metal. The weight of this radio is substantial. The speaker is high quality. It actually sounds better than my old Bose speakers, which i could hook up to this if i wanted, but find it unnecessary. The dial is so satisfying to turn, especially if you are into vintage and retro things. The reception upon first try is great! I did employ the radio antenna wire they included. The Sangean picked up our local public radio station just fine, which is actually located about 60 miles from where i am. I purchased this solely to listen to classical radio at the shop. Goal attained :) However, if i wanted, the Bluetooth works great, and i even plugged my ipad into the aux port so i could listen to podcasts. Sound is clear and easy to understand. I had no feeling of too much bass, as others mentioned in their reviews. Also, i have not found it to lose signal at all once tuned in. Admittedly, the public radio station needs a little finesse to tune into initially, but once i am there, it sticks. I can turn it off and on again, and the station stays tuned in. I have not found anything negative about this radio. It's simple, solid, stylish, and aesthetically pleasing in every way. This is brand new to me, so if anything changes i will update. I received nothing for this review...just sharing my experience.

looks fantastic,fm clear and sharp with internal antenna. am system not so good . work in progress.bluetooth system is flawless. aux in working great. speaker has deep bass with sharp sound. all the ccontrol knobs are easy to use.tuning knob holds station, no drift. never used usb charging port .

The Sangean 45th Anniversary Special Edition WR-16SE is definitely special in many ways. Not only does it provide crystal-clear reception of local channels, but with exterior FM and/or AM loop antennas, you will have a far-reaching collection of broadcasts at your fingertips. This radio combines the look and feel of yesterday with the state-of-the-art performance of today. The analog tuning style gives a nostalgic feel, all the while digitally locking in frequencies, eliminating station drift. It is also equipped with Bluetooth connectivity and an aux-in, so you can easily play podcasts and internet radio stations from any device with a headphone jack or Bluetooth capabilities. Other features include a USB charging port, record-out jack, and headphone jack for a discreet listening experience. I would liken the design to a late 1970s/early 1980s luxury tabletop style. Well-made and durable, the wood cabinet, rose gold face, and well-lit dial are pleasing complements to each other and their surroundings. The sound from this radio is unbelievable for its size! It utilizes a quality speaker, bass port, and special audio-shaping style to produce clear highs and rich bass, eliminating the need for tone controls. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend Sangean radios over any other brand sold today. If you are in the market for a compact, yet solid tabletop radio packed with features from a company that has been engineering and manufacturing radios for over 50 years, then the WR-16SE is made for you.

Really nice radio. Good sound, classic look. Solid and appears well made. My only complaint is that the phone charging only works when the radio is off. So I can’t listen to the radio while my phone charges. If not for that one thing, I would give it 5 stars.

Excellent sound, pairs with my iPhone 16. It has a classic and timeless look! Goes well with mid century modern furniture. Feels like a good quality item compared to similar items from other brands.

Elegant little machine. I was annoyed that there were no digital presets and afraid that the dial tuning would not lock onto a station, but in fact the tuning is smooth, accurate, and steady. It's a nice machine -- good reception (we are in a suburb) & good sound, though not for a large room. We have it in the kitchen and make use of the BlueTooth to access Internet music.

This beautiful Sangean radio completely exceeded my expectations. I opened it immediately after receiving it and I was impressed with the solid wood cabinet and the overall appearance. It is reminiscent of the radios and stereos I had in the ‘70’s. I love the soft green glow of the indicator lights and of the radio dial. This Sangean is beautiful in it’s simplicity—just three knobs! Bluetooth connectivity was simple and quick. The sound is full and clear, with enough bass to allay any fears of tinniness. I bought this radio to replace the plastic Teac radio that had too many buttons and knobs. The sound was always fuzzy but I liked the look of it, but it stopped working. I thought I would miss it but I do not! If you are looking for a solid, classy and clear-sounding radio, do not overlook this Sangean. Jeez, I almost wish I wasn’t retired so that I could have this timeless beauty on my desk and be the envy of the office. Now I’m thinking of who I can buy a few more for because, to me, this perfect little radio is the ideal gift!!

Adquirí el Radio Sangean después de investigar durante algún tiempo, y desde que lo vi en Amazon me gusto, así que me arriesgue y lo Compre. El radio es de una excelente calidad y esta hermoso, el mueble es de madera solida y las perillas son de metal, compre el de color nogal con frente oro rosa. El funcionamiento es muy bueno de hecho solo le puse el cable que trae como antena y tiene una recepción de gran calidad, sintoniza todas las estaciones de FM de mi ciudad y hasta el momento la mayoría de AM pero en cuanto le ponga una antena sin dudas sintonizara todas las AM, el sonido es muy bueno para un radio. Tengo un radio de los años 70 que dejo de funcionar y el sangean se escucha mucho mejor. Otra cosa que me sorprendió es la excelente calidad del que Bluetooth con que cuenta, tuve la oportunidad de probarlo a una distancia de 9 metros con dos paredes de concreto como barrera y en ningún momento escuche que disminuyera la nitidez del sonido al estar reproduciendo canciones de mi celular. Estoy muy contento con este radio y es sin duda una compra muy recomendable. El envío fue desde Amazon Estados Unidos y llego en menos de una semana

Best purchase for the year. Love it so much with the astonishing bass provided by this small radio. Even bought a voltage transformer to use this in Sg
