For radio reception, the player is well suited - I could find no problems receiving stations.
Significant negative points there are to the CD playing. While a certain loading time is tolerable in MP3 compilations due to the larger amount of data it takes much too long in conventional audio CDs.
Faintly also: For CDs whose titles merge into one another without a break, to track end can be heard up to 1 second of silence, which sounds relatively modest and a music lover like me is extremely disturbing. Even my MP3 CD radio in the car and all reasonably modern player on the PC do that without interruption - not to mention older CD players.
Conclusion: Anyone who uses the device more pragmatic for background music or listen to the radio, is in good hands, just CD and music listener should look rather for another alternative.
