Sangean WR-12 / Fully Analogue Tabletop Radio with 2.1 Sound

[@dustoff499]

The challenge would be to find station music fitting for such a beautiful radio.

[@dirkmuller8461]

jazzradio.net/ that´s my favourite, in Berlin on 106,8 Mhz :)

[@dkennell998]

Mr Müller, you have a voice like melted butter. If you don't do voiceover work, the world is missing out. Thank you for the excellent review!

[@randynelson2265]

The tuning is actually digital. It's just been given an analogue appearance. However it is still a very good radio.

[@stevec5000]

Since it drifts so much I don't think the tuning is digital.

[@racinchef]

I like that it has bass and treble adjustments. You don’t see illuminated tuning much any more. It has a nice long slide rule tuner: not bunched up like other radios. Reminds me of the old console radios. The WR-12 is my favorite of the Sangean table top radios.

A beautiful radio! Thank you for sharing.

[@mogumogu3686]

Simply the best radio you can buy at the moment. Excellent sound quality and just an absolute work of art. I love this radio.... Thank you for a great review. 👏👏👍👍

[@wu2u]

I just bought one. Unbelievable sound, and very well made.

Hello Dirk, I like the philosophy of this device....It doesn't offer tons of features, but it seems to do what it does remarkably well.. Thanks for sharing, have a good evening. Sylvain.

The tuning really sounds digital, there is no gradual transition into stations. Nice review, thanks!

[@dirkmuller8461]

I think you are right, it is hard to find a real non digital radio these days - maybe this video helps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmLXmXeXad-Ypck

[@RosssRoyce]

@@dirkmuller8461 Thanks!! Haha Sound of India is truly something 😝😀! I also got the Tecsun pl 660 that they left by chance analog, though it’s a tiny radio.

[@iw6cpk]

It is the last radio with analog tuning, i think

[@wu2u]

Yes, definitely a digital tuner, but that's what everything is these days. Can't beat true analog tuning.

[@sousardanilo]

This is the radio that I need

[@Octocoupler]

Wow, i was researching tivoli fm radio with bluetooth, and this brand came up, after some Googling i found this brand from Taiwan and i want this model badly. Love the retro analogue vibe.

[@stevec5000]

This radio drifts like crazy! If they have been making it for 10 years you would think they could have figured out how to add AFC to it by now! The sound is a bit muffled which is odd considering how many big speakers it has but at least the AM reception is good.

[@deec2923]

Thank you for the nice review.

声が綺麗でスピーカーから出てる音声かと思った

Will the Sangean WR-12 work with a smart plug? I like my radio to turn on early in the morning, shutting off automatically after 2 hours, then turn on again the evenings during weekdays, and different times on the weekends.

[@rafaeljoseification]

These radios do not come with a cable to connect to power or are they battery powered?

[@garyrhode3755]

is it a dual speaker system, with a third speaker? in back

[@EasyLifeES]

Hello Dirk, I have a question, how big is the difference is in between DDR-47BT and WR-12BT from sound perspective and FM signal reception. Any Pros & Cons that favors one over the other (excepting the price)? Thanks in advance!

[@yz2616]

wondering the same thing

[@athletejmv]

I'm wondering the same. Some reviews I have read says the BT version of the WR-12 (WR-12B) has drifting issues on the FM tuner.

[@joycekoch5746]

Does it have a power cord?

[@safugpac2691]

Have you tried any Ocean Digital radios? I am interested in the WR-800D model, thanks.

[@subramoniams9850]

I am thinking of this radio. How large is the dial (length) ? How is the reception on FM - selectivity and sensitivity and adjacent station interference? How about AM reception? Is the design pure analog or DSP based tuning?

[@beautifulysungsingh1849]

Beautiful

[@TheBarry1m]

Tuning sounds digital to me.

[@christophersteer505]

A very nice, and well presented video, thankyou. A favour please, can you tell me what the external music you played is. All the best, RS London Boy.

[@dirkmuller8461]

It is a track called "Blue Mood" by Robert Munzinger, you can see this information it you max out the details of my video. You can find the full track and a lot more music in the KZbin Audio Libary!

[@piotr7050]

What a nice radio.

[@carltonbirds]

Very lovely.

[@R945-l6f]

Can i use supply voltage AC 230V

[@dirkmuller8461]

IEC socket (C7) straight

[@R945-l6f]

@@dirkmuller8461 does it work on 230 v ac or it requires stepdown transformer

[@dirkmuller8461]

@@R945-l6f It is a detachable 230 v ac cable; the transformer is built into the radio

[@strato4925]
