Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

This stylish, compact FM/AM radio exemplifies everything Sangean radios are known for: efficiency, innovation, and convenience. Weighing a mere 58 grams (without battery), the SR-3 is as small as a lighter. You can tuck it into most pockets and it won't slow you down during a fast-paced workout or busy commute.

The radio comes with stereo earbuds and a neck strap, as well as a trailing antenna. DBB (Deep Bass Boost) enhances the low end, while a stereo-mono switch improves reception when needed. Measuring a mere 1.5 by 3 by 0.6 inches, the unit runs on a single AAA battery (not included).

2.0 out of 5 stars small radio, small sound, April 17, 2003

I purchased this radio mainly because of the built in speaker and that part of the stereo works great. the sound of it is amazing for the small size. BUT when i plug in my headphones(my own, not the ones they supplied) it sounded so flat and hollow. Also sangean products have a reputation for getting good reception but this radio does not. My CHEAPER sony walkman gets better reception with a lot less hiss. I am going to return this radio and either try a different brand or give a higher quality sangean a try.

Nice size little pocket radio with great sound. Even picked up stations in our downstairs, which is underground.

For over a decade I've used a cheap radio hanging around my neck when out biking in NYC most afternoons and nights. In some neighborhoods, or after dark, reception of my favorite NPR station vanished. The Sangean -- the same size and weight as my old one, and also with a neck strap that makes it great for biking -- has solved that. Wish I'd found this radio 10 years ago. It's slightly more expensive, but still cheap. However, the station never wanders, even in the NYC neighborhoods where I'd never before been able to receive my favorite station. It even gets decent reception in my building elevator, something no small radio had ever achieved before.
