Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Waking up can be brutal without the right mix of music and/or talk programming to take your mind off the early hour. The Philips AJ3951 clock radio makes the process a little easier thanks to its bevy of convenient features, including a CD player that lets you choose your own rise-and-shine soundtrack and a pair of 3-inch bass-reflex speakers that offer a pleasingly rich stereo sound. The device also offers an analog AM/FM tuner for conventional radio programming and a dual alarm setting for two-person households. It's the extras that really make the unit, however. For instance, the "weekend sleeper" option automatically disables the alarms on Saturday and Sunday (so you aren't unexpectedly jolted awake on Saturday morning), and then restarts the alarms once the workweek arrives--all without any help from you. In addition, sleepers who hate to have their dreamy revelries interrupted by sudden bursts of music can activate the "gentle wake" mode, which starts the alarm at a soft volume and then gradually increases it as you open your eyes. And thanks to the silent start mode, listeners also won't hear the CD cuing up before playing the first track, another nice bonus for light sleepers.

Additional features include an attractive silver finish, a large LCD display with adjustable brightness, a traditional battery backup for power outages, and a self-powered three-minute backup for changing batteries when AC power isn't available.

3.0 out of 5 stars Close but disappointing, October 11, 2004

This review is from: Philips AJ3951 AM/FM CD Clock Radio (Electronics)

Initially I was thrilled to find a clock radio with a CD player that would wake you gently; it starts at a very low volume and slowly gets louder and louder. I thought it would be perfect for days when either my husband or I needed to get up earlier than the other. I thought this would allow one of us to get up quietly while the other person slept. However, what I found is that after the music has started softly and you want to turn the alarm off, you need to push a buttom that emits a rather loud beep-thus waking the other person.

5.0 out of 5 stars great sound, small size, April 15, 2004

By A Customer

this little radio/cd/alarm clock has GREAT sound for such a small device! It's easy to use, and sounds like a much larger stereo! Finally a small appliance to fit any space!
