Boasting an acoustically balanced wooden enclosure and an
enhanced front-firing 3-inch speaker, the Sangean WR-2 op
radio offers the sound and features of a living room system in a
cabinet that fits conveniently in a bedroom, kitchen, or garage.
Any discussion of the WR-2 begins with its walnut-finished wooden
housing, which is rich in both appearance and tone. The cabinet's
front surface features the speaker on the left side, a series of
intuitively placed control buttons toward the bottom, and a
generously sized LCD display in the middle with three brightness
levels. More importantly, the cabinet teams with the 7-watt
amplifier and the acoustic bass compensation system to add warmth
and depth to the audio. Complementing the housing is Sangean's
advanced RF/IF electronic circuitry, which picks up distant AM
and FM stations and reproduces them with unmatched clarity,
making music and even talk programs come alive.
Even though the WR-2 is advertised as an AM/FM radio, it offers
much more than a standard digital tuner, including a Radio Data
System (RDS) that displays short text messages on applicable FM
stations, along with support for the Enhanced Other Network (EON)
and its traffic information (available in certain regions). And
unlike most op radios, the WR-2 lets listeners adjust the
treble and bass levels via the variable volume control. In its
default mode, the rotary volume knob displays the volume level
from 1 to 60. Tap it once, however, and it turns into a
full-range treble control, and two taps creates a full-range bass
control. Additional features include a clock with an alarm (radio
or buzzer), an auxiliary input jack for connecting such devices
as an iPod or MP3 player (both of which sound great through the
speaker), a output jack, 10 memory presets that help
you quickly find your favorite stations, and a full-featured
infrared remote control.
A final bonus stems from the power backup function, which plays
the radio for six minutes during a power failure (ideal for
emergencies) and retains the memory preset and clock values for
about an hour. The WR-2 measures roughly 9.5 by 4.5 by 6 inches
(W x H x D) and weighs 5.5 pounds.
