I have to say clearly that there is not a high-end product to sound. Contrary to other recessions of sound for me is not excellent, because for example the highs do not come across well. What but by no means is that the sound quality is poor. As radio to listen casually or to wake you can hear these details hardly. Reasonable bass there is virtually standard, which I really like on the device.
If you want to use as an alarm clock to WR2 things look not so rosy, why there is also a point deduction here. Starting with the display, which is by itself at the lowest level of illumination a floodlight in nothing. In a dark room that is incredibly annoying. Since only the display helps completely off, but then you can not see the time. The alarm setting can no longer be solved more complicated. Namely one needs a full 10 key clicks it (incl. Illumination on and off). Who wants to be woken up every morning at other times the 10-15 seconds long procedure must also join in every time.
I reserve the WR2 but still. Mainly due to the radio for listening to good sound and stylish design. Yes, I look at him every morning happy. As an alarm clock Sangean WR2 has obviously not constructed, but I arrange it.
My conclusion: As a radio to hear the way for kitchen, bathroom, it is a great part. As an alarm clock you have to come to terms with the deficits.
