1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Quality, August 13, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Coby CX-9 Mini Digital AM/FM Stereo Pocket Radio (Electronics)

First of all, the casing doesn't look half as good as it does in the picture above. Its finish is much rougher, uneven, and cheap.

The radio has poor reception, especially in-building, this is my biggest problem with this unit since it makes it unusable.

Furthermore, the volume levels are not spread evenly, hence, the sound is either too loud or two soft (even between one level and the next).

Also, you can't navigate the preset channels in both directions (up/down), instead, you must click through the whole cycle (and you can't click fast, cause the unit won't respond).

This is a great little radio! It has a nice sound and full bass. I use other headphones instead of the ones supplied, as I have trouble keeping ear buds in my ears. The radio sound with my own headphones is superior to the sound one gets with the ones supplied too.
