User questions & answers

Question:	Will I need converter for Europe voltage 230 V 50 Hz
Answer:	Yes you will Mike. I believe you will need a step down transformer as I did in New Zealand where the NZ Voltage is also 230 V 50 HZ. As the radio is made in the USA where they have 120V 60 Hz if you don't use the step down transformer there will be too much power supplied to the radio so it could be severely damaged. Paul.
Question:	What's the difference between both Sangean models
Answer:	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.
Question:	My Fm reception is poor. How can it be improved
Answer:	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.
Question:	How does the sound compare to a Tivoli Model 1 radio
Answer:	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.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a clock radio
Answer:	Yes it is a radio with a digital clock on the front so yes it is a clock radio. The digital clock by the way receives a signal that keeps it perfectly on time with the bureau of standards clock so it’s always accurate.
Question:	Does this radio require an additional purchase to act as a Bluetooth receiver? If so, how much does it cost? The expanded description suggests this
Answer:	It is equipped to receive Bluetooth right out of the box. Also, I must say that it does an excellent job of doing so! I stream directly from my tablet to the radio using Bluetooth nightly and it’s just awesome!
Question:	is it really that difficult to operate? a lot of people are saying its confusing
Answer:	The unit is not 'a breeze' to operate. It is actually somewhat complicated. I have to keep the instruction manual next to the device so that I can check how to do any task such as set alarm or time, or even the light dimmer settings. HOWEVER... I do like this little thing. It is such a nice surprise to find something so well-made these days. It is a solid unit and everything about it seems to be high quality. I would give it a 5 out of 5 rating.... but I may give it a 4 because it's so complicated to operate.
Question:	Will it charge my phone with the USB port
Answer:	Yes. I stream audio through the phone to the radio via bluetooth and charge it at the same time. See other answer. The radio must be in certain play modes to charge. Pretty handy.

• Included components: product, manual

User questions & answers

Question:	Are the menus and/or station numbers spoken
Answer:	No. Menus do not speak. After menu button is pressed, station knob allows access to menu items.Doesn't appear accessible for a person who is blind.
Question:	Does this have wake-up to radio or beeper alarm
Answer:	The alarm can be set to "Buzzer" (series of beeps) or to a radio frequency (HD stations will default to HD1 - there does not appear to be a way to set the alarm to HD2 or HD3). There are two alarms. The alarm volume starts low and then increases.
Question:	Why are there only two photos of the radio? I want to see more of the radio. Show the power cord connection and the input/output jacks
Answer:	Look on the Sangean web site for a 360 degree view of this and other radios. The user manual is also available for download.
Question:	What size AM ferrite antenna does this radio have inside? Is it 8" like some of their other models
Answer:	Yes, the built in FERRITE antenna is 8 inches long. with 2 windings wrapped 180 degrees out of phase-to minimise signal distortion of the digital signal. The other gentleman is correct about the FM whip antenna. Extended it is 27 inches long. It does EAT batteries! (Get a good AC adapter-not a cheap wall wart.)
Question:	is this stereo has GPS included
Answer:	No. There is a gps adapter you buy that will plug in. Although it does have a map overlay as well as it lets you use Waze if you plug your phone up to the supplied usb cable. So in a way it kind of does have GPS but really just because of your phone.
Question:	does it come with a remote Bluetooth microphone and USB extension cord
Answer:	Yes this unit comes with a Remote. It is Bluetooth capable and comes with a USB cord and wired microphone for the handsfree calling. Get with it people! Jeez no one can answer simple questions on here lol
Question:	Will it work on existing back up camera
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does it come with a remote
Answer:	Yes it should, mine did come with a remote. I do not have steering wheel controls so i velcroed mine to steering wheel , works great lol.

Product description

Tivoli Audio Model one am/ FM table radio, classic/ walnut

The Tivoli Model One has been praised far and wide for its high-quality sound, small size, and cool, retro styling. We got our hands on a sample unit and came away impressed, just as many others have. Anyone who wants a compact, stylish radio with surprisingly good sound should give the Model One a look.

Design

In many ways, the Model One is the culminating achievement of famed audio engineer Henry Kloss's long career. Designed from the ground up by Kloss, who passed away in 2002, the radio exudes understated class and elegant simplicity. We received the Platinum Series Model One, which features a hand-lacquered, high gloss dark walnut cabinet that is simply gorgeous. According to Tivoli, the genuine wood casing isn't just for looks as it provides "an acoustically inert housing" that maximizes the speaker's sound quality. At just over 8 inches wide, 4.5 inches high, and 5.25 inches deep, the Model One is about the size of a toaster turned on its side-- plenty small to fit on a desk, dresser, or nightstand.

The Model One's single rotary dial handles tuning for both AM and FM stations. It feels sturdy and smooth in the hand. The dial is designed to move between stations at a speed that is a bit slower than the speed at which the user turns the knob-- a 5 to 1 ratio, to be exact. This "ratio" dialing technique makes it far easier to tune stations accurately and quickly. It's a nice touch that sets the unit apart from other desktop radios.

The tuner band selection and volume dials are easy to control. Plus, they're well designed for hands of all sizes. A small LED power indicator, as well as an LED that helps determine signal strength, are positioned between the dials. We liked the light-colored face and dark lettering printed on the Platinum Series model we reviewed; it made for easy operation in dimly-lit rooms. The Model One's single, 3" driver is protected by a handsome metal speaker cover. Tivoli adds that the speaker is enhanced by a "multi-stage frequency contouring circuit that adjusts the speaker's output over half-octave increments." The result, Tivoli claims, is "musically accurate tonal balance and bass response."

The back of the unit features a coaxial antenna jack for the included FM antenna wire. While the Model One also has an internal FM antenna, Tivoli recommends using the supplied external one for tricky tuning in locales with a lot of stations crammed together. There's a handy switch for switching between the internal and external antennae. A standard 3.5mm headphone jack is also provided, as is a 3.5mm auxiliary line in port for plugging in your iPod or other music device. If you want to use the Model One as a component tuner-- not a bad idea given the overall quality and accuracy of the tuning circuitry-- Tivoli has provided a 3.5mm output port. The back panel also sports separate ports for AC and DC power, making the unit a great choice for boating or RV use.

Listening Pleasure

As with the Tivoli iPal portable speaker system, we were initially skeptical about the performance of a small, one-speaker unit that only offers monaural sound. The reality is that most small two-speaker systems don't allow you to place the speakers very far apart anyway, and the Model One's rich, resonant sound more than made up for its lack of true stereo separation. Plus, the Model One is a single, elegant box with no annoying speaker cords.

While the Model One isn't designed to provide earth-shattering sound at high volume, it produces surprising clarity and fullness at normal listening levels. When turned all the way up, the unit's rich sound persists and we suspect that Tivoli engineered the Model One's volume level to max out before any distortion arises. If you don't need a lot of volume, the Model One delivers. As with the iPal, we were left scratching our heads and wondering how such great sound could come from such a little box.

The Model One's tuning accuracy is also impressive; we were able to dial in stations we didn't even know existed. Tivoli says this is due to the unit's discrete-component FM tuner technology, which was originally developed for cellular telephones. Whatever Tivoli has done here, they did it right; closely-spaced stations are a breeze to tune.

Pros

• Compact form factor
• Excellent sound
• Supremely accurate tuning

Cons

• Not engineered to produce extremely high volume levels

• High-performance table radio with simple design and superior sound reproduction
• Attractive, furniture-grade, handmade wood cabinet doubles as acoustically inert housing
• 3-inch long-throw driver ensures accurate tonal balance and bass response
• State-of-the-art discrete component FM tuner improves reception and increases clarity
• Measures 8.375 x 4.5 x 5.25 inches (W x H x D); 1-year warranty
• High-performance table radio with simple design and superior sound reproduction
• Attractive, furniture-grade, handmade wood cabinet doubles as acoustically inert housing

User questions & answers

Question:	hi, will this radio work in Australia or will i need an adaption cable or something
Answer:	I know nothing about Australian radio. The input with the included cord is 120 v., which means you need a transformer for 220 v. Australia, but there is a spot for a 12 volt input, so you could use a line with a 12 v. transformer (like your cell phone charger) that works for Australian cell phones.
Question:	does this radio plug in or does it operate on batteries
Answer:	No it not operate on batteries. There are a simular Tivoli model who operate on batteries. You have to look for that model. Anyhow non of This model are produced anymore. There are a new line of Tivoli radioes, but when it comes to sound quality they can compare with The model one. And The new line of Tivoli are expensiv and no good value for money.. There are many good brands wich are better and so expensiv as The The new line from tivoli.
Question:	Dq you have this radio with a 220w charger
Answer:	This radio is available in many countries around the world and make specific models for countries that have 220w. We recommend that you purchase a 12v power supply instead since the radio also has that option for power.
Question:	How is classic music station sound
Answer:	Very good sound fidelity... similar to a Bose "soundwave" radio. The difference is that the Tivoli is monophonic. However, neither radio can accurately reproduce the full dynamic sound range of classical music in a large room. For that there is no substitute for power and appropriate loudspeakers.

The PR-D18 has excellent sensitivity and selectivity and will surprise you at its ability to pull in those distant stations. 5 presets are available on each band, and the auto seek will automatically seek the active stations across the entire band rather than to the next frequency.

• Power source type: AC & Battery
• Output wattage: 1.0 watts
• Included components: product, manual

User questions & answers

Question:	How long is the battery life
Answer:	Batteries not included, 4 AA alkaline, but if u use it low volume they will/shall last pretty long. Vol is 1-10, I use it on 5. The radio is a good deal. And easy to set.
Question:	What is the battery life
Answer:	Not good, I play it about 30- 45 minutes a day, use normal AA batteries , at a fairly high volume. I put a tag on the radio when I changed the batteries, and it has consistently required replacement every 5 weeks. Very disappointing. I had a $15 Sony before this, and that would run months on the same usage schedule.
Question:	Would this work well as an emergency radio
Answer:	I would not recommend any digital tuning radio as first choice for an emergency kit. An emergency kit radio should have good reception traits PLUS long battery life. The Sangean PR-D18 will work as an emergency kit radio for brief emergencies, just do not leave the batteries in that radio long term without using it. For example, do not store the PR-D18 radio in an emergency kit with batteries actually in it because it constantly draws a small amount of energy from the batteries for the tuning section memory which means the batteries could be about gone a year later when you actually need it most. All portable radios with digital tuners also deplete batteries faster in use than an analog radio, even an analog radio that is much larger. If you read the reviews the Sangean PR-D18 is never noted to be a battery life champ with one reviewer stating it "eats batteries like candy." An old fashioned analog tuning AM/FM pocket style radio that uses 2 AA batteries will have much longer battery life in use and is not constantly draining the batteries when packed away for years. I would suggest the Sangean SR-35 AM/FM Analog Pocket Radio, the Sony ICF-S10MK2 AM/FM Analog Pocket Radio (discontinued but still in retail channels including Amazon at this time), the Sony ICFP26 Portable AM/FM Radio (replacement model for the Sony ICF-S10MK2 with minor internal changes plus a sweeping cosmetic revamp), and the less expensive Radio Shack catalog number 1200586 AM/FM pocket radio (not sold on Amazon but you can get one off the shelf at your local Radio Shack store) as more worthy emergency kit radios. If you have room in your kit I could also recommend the Sony ICF38 for much better sound quality but it is larger, heavier and more expensive than the little pocket radios yet delivers equally long battery life. There are also hand-crank-to-charge radios that seem a good choice too but I do not have any real experience with them.
Question:	Is this Radio HD? Tia
Answer:	If you're interested in HD then Sangean has a HDR14 or an HDR16, I have the HDR16 which is fantastic and sounds awesome beyond Stereophonic sound.

User questions & answers

Question:	Sorry I'm not real literate on portable radios, I am looking for a good AM/FM HD 2 radio. Is the Sangean PR-D5 HD 2 compatible
Answer:	Although this radio displays RDS text, it is not HD capable. Some might confuse RDS with HD. Yes, HD can communicate textual information as well as additional audio streams. RDS is an earlier technology used to communicate textual information. At this writing (fall 2013), the circuitry needed to decode HD consumes a lot of power. That's why you don't see too many HD radios that run on batteries (except for the ones in automobiles!).
Question:	Is the clock visible in the dark, i.e. is it back-lit? I am looking for something to use as a clock radio, but with decent sound
Answer:	The display shows the station tuned in (and the memory number, if you've saved it) but the time only shows when you push a button. There is a backlight but it only stays on for fifteen seconds or so after you push the button, not so good if you're wanting to see the time, say from a nightstand.
Question:	is this an HD radio
Answer:	It is not an HD radio which receives additional audio and data signals. This radio has an RDS function which receives only the data signal containing information about time, station identification and program information.
Question:	Does this come with a power cord for a regular house power outlet
Answer:	Yes, the radio comes with a 9volt transformer on a 6 foot cord which plugs into a regular 120V outlet or power strip. Great radio. I'm sure you will enjoy it if you choose to purchase one. Walt
