Happy with this Clock!

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

I am very pleased with this clock. It is not the fanciest thing, with what a lot of reviews say, such as no batteries, but you know that when you buy it. I have finally found a clock that I have not returned. Its true that the volume and tuning are not the best designed, but try to find better for the price.

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

The only thing wrong, and I mean the only thing was that there was no headphone port. I listen to the radio at night while my husband sleeps.

I loved the unit as a whole. Beautiful, good size, beautiful sound and great reception. We live in the foothills and sometimes have a hard time tuning stations in.

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

Very attractive unit, super large easy-to-read-in-the-dark time display, excellent sound. I like to play a cd while falling off to sleep, and I can set the number of minutes for the cd to play so I don't have to think about turning it off.
The only negative point is that it doesn't have a backup battery and you have to reset the time if there is a power outage or you move it to a different plug.

Service & Delivery comments:

Arrived in a matter of days, sooner than expected, and in perfect condition, well packaged.
I would purchase from this company again.

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

like the size, like the features. could have more bass to the sound, especially for the sony name, but it has good sound for what it is. adding the megabass option would be great though. the sound level is comparable between the two functions, so one doesn't find oneself in a panic to turn the volume down when changing from radio to cd, or vice versa

Does not play MP3 CDs directly

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

This radio/CD unit claims it plays MP3. The missing detail is that it does not play MP3 CDs. It plays MP3 by using the provided cord to attach the radio/CD unit to a MP3 player. It will not play MP3 CDs directly. I ended up getting the Insignia Model NS-CL02. So research carefully before getting this unit if your main purpose is to play MP CDs directly.

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

I have been using it for weeks now and I have no issues with it. Except for that Sony could thought of adding a battery compartment too.

Also, please be aware that this does not play MP3 files. It plays custom created Audio CDs but no MP3s.
But it is a worth buy. The speaker sounds very decent and has a nice volume.

Service & Delivery comments:

Happy with the delivery too.

Comments about Sony Sony Black AM FM MP3 CD Clock Radio:

nice sounding radio with easy to read time. Volume button could have been placed in a better location but this is the only 'negative' thing about the radio, I can live with it. I like the fact I can hook my mp3 player to it and let the music go for hours. Nice looking design, highly recommend this clock radio.

Service & Delivery comments:

was delivered in excellent shape, and very quick. I ordered it online and ABT sent updates on the tracking of the shipment, completely voluntarily. I never had to wonder if it was on the way or where it was. But overall the shipment was so quick I never had time to. The packaging was excellent, no chance for it to be damaged. I will use this online store again, very confident in their professional service.
