Sangean RCR-10 Clock Radio (Black)

The RCR-10 is an affordable clock radio with good AM/FM reception and sound. Most outstanding is the large LCD display screen that clearly shows the time and radio station from across the room. Using the dimmer, you can adjust the brightness of the display for day or night. The control buttons on the top of the radio are also lighted and adjustable by the dimmer. Two alarms can be set to either buzzer or radio alarm daily, on weekdays, on weekends, or just once.

The two stereo speakers can adequately fill a room with rich music or your favorite talk radio program. Adjustable bass and treble controls can be set to your listening preference. Attach your iPod™ to the dock on the top of the radio for easy integration with your music library. The included remote control can be used to navigate an iPod or adjust the volume.

Features include a headphone jack, line-input jack, line-output jack, snooze bar, sleep timer, and a battery backup to keep the time when the power goes out. For battery backup you will need 2 AA batteries (not included).

I had been waiting for a good clock radio from C. Crane for a while. This one looked about right so I bought one. It has a lot going for it, in particular: You can set a station and volume to wake to that is different from the station and volume you listen to when you go to sleep. Once you have this feature, you can never have it any other way. The sound is also very good. The display is very attractive but, it is so bright that it must be off or blocked so you can sleep. If you turn it off, the illuminated buttons on the top also go off, so you can no longer see in the dark to run the controls. Crazy! Since I want to be able to see the controls, I have a small box that I put in front of the display so that it doesn''t light up the whole room. It is as though the folks who design clock radios have never even used a clock radio. Further, the controls should be on the front of the radio so you can see them - not on top. I don''t know of a bed-side table or headboard shelf that is so low that you could see these controls. I have the radio tipped forward and propped up so that I can see the controls. Crazy again! What else is crazy? Well, the controls are all flush with the top of the radio so you can''t "feel" the buttons. So if you''re lying in bed in the dark and wish to change a station, adjust the volume, turn off, hit ''sleep'' button, etc. you can''t do it by feel. You have to 1) sit up in bed so you can see the top of the radio, 2) turn on the display light so you can see the controls. My old clock radio is a 25 year old Nakamichi which, unfortunately, is no longer made. You can run it in the dark because you can feel all of the controls, you can see it at night because the display can be left on as it doesn''t light up the room. Might have to put it back into the lineup! Long story short...this Sangean is a good radio but very poorly designed for sleeping. Would make a better ''table radio''.
