Lets write a short review of Sony XDR-S61D.
One of the best small radios of the cathegory. A great choice if you want an unlimited list of
FM and DAB+ stations and quickly choose from them.
PROS:
+The cabinet looks great
+Automatic scan and save FM and DAB+ stations to a list. The list contains names of the stations.
+A great big easy readable monochromatic LCD
+Bass reflex system
+Simple operation, but it is good to be able to read English
+The speaker has only 7cm in diameter but somehow they managed to get a good sound from that.
+Better sound than Panasonic RF-D10
+There are about 30 steps of volume, that is good.
CONS:
-time can be set by DAB+ and not by FM RDS
-You cannot set the language, there is always English
-No date can be displayed, only HOURS:MINUTES
-No sound equalizer, but I do not miss it much
-No firmware version can be displayed
-No bluetooth, no MP3
-The used ac adaptor Sony AC-P5007F is hard to buy, but fortunately a stndard Sony Discman PC-013 cable is used.
-Sometimes the autotune feature saves an incorrect name of FM station.
