How does the sound compare to a Tivoli Model 1 radio?

I have a much older Tivoli model one. The volume control no longer works properly. Yes the Tivoli one has a greater depth of sound. But the price point was important to me as this radio gets minimal use. So I am pleased with the purchase. Check consumer reviews for the Tivoli model one.

My Fm reception is poor. How can it be improved?

Try the external antenna (extended, switch it to external). Try another location in the house for the radio. Try orienting the antenna differently and at least a foot away from large metal objects (which could change the nature of the antenna or block the signal). Try using a dipole antenna located remotely, higher, or in the clear with respect to the desired station. This may mean a getting a balun ($5), some coax (several dollars), and a folded FM dipole antenna ($7). Finally, consider putting an RF preamplifier between the folded dipole antenna and the radio. If none of that helps, you have a difficult location, a faulty radio, or a requirement to receive a station with too weak a signal to your location.When it's finally working and you realize that it has a serious deficit in fidelity (muddy, bassy, little midrange, no highs), as I did, put a more ordinary radio nearby and turn it up just enough to hear the midrange and highs. The combined sound will be a lot more like you had hoped for to begin with. I am profoundly displeased with the lack of audio fidelity and range in this radio. It is essentially a subwoofer with a tuner and not much more. How people rate it so highly is a complete and utter mystery to me. A profound ignorance of audio fidelity in the population at large, I guess.

What's the difference between both Sangean models?

the wr 11 model is a manual tune radio with the old fashioned slide rule tuning, the wr2 is a digitally tuned model similar to modern car radios..including theability to preset the channels you listen to most.

This is a one speaker product (mono speaker), correct? How is the sound?

is correct, is Mono speaker, has a very good sound, perhaps for the soundboard and the speaker, I buy for my mother because it is very simple to use with basic buttons, she is so happy.

After reading so many reviews stating that the SANGEAN WR 11 is a good radio, I ordered for this product

Ce que j'attendais

J'ai longtemps hésité mais je suis très satisfait de cet achat. La qualité de construction est très bonne, l'appareil est basique (ce que je voulais), il est connecté sur la prise antenne FM du câble (la réception par voie hertzienne est mauvaise dans mon village). La radio fonctionne du matin au soir sur la même station. Le son est déroutant au début, Le petit HP et l'évent des basses à l'arrière donnent une grosse sonorité, les basses sont très présentes (trop pour certains) mais cela peut être corrigé en ne plaçant pas l'appareil trop près du mur et en évitant les coins. Une autre solution est de placer un morceau de mousse dans l'évent ce qui filtre les basses dans les éradiquer. Bref que du bon.
