A World of Listening

In 1936, Sangean's founder developed his very first radio, driven by a dream of connecting the world through music and sound. Thirty-eight years later, Sangean was established in 1974 with the hope to share that same dream globally. Today, this vision continues to be the driving force for Sangean.

Testimonials

Customer feedback highlights the quality and performance of Sangean radios:

"I love this radio. Everything talks, and is very intuitive. The sound quality exceeded my expectations!" - RT. on PR-D17

"An excellent little radio, the sound quality is amazing and reception is very good. It has plenty of features including RDS providing song and time information. The product feels very sturdy and not at all cheap, in fact it is very heavy for it's size which tells me that there's a good speaker inside. Overall a great product." - J. on HDR-18

"Amazing how much quality sounds comes out of this little radio. Bluetooth works great. Cool retro look. Perfect for my bedside table." - NB. on CP-100

"The Sangean ATS-909x is a truly superior radio for Broadcast band AM/FM, AND for broadband Shortwave, including Ham bands. THIS IS A GREAT RADIO FOR NEWBIE AND EXPERIENCED ALIKE! TAKE THAT TO THE BANK! TEN STARS!" - A. on ATS-909X

"I just received this. At first sight I loved the look. It was not too hard to set up. It took a few times but I know how to set alarm etc. It looks awesome on my nightstand. The sound for AM radio is perfect." - LB. on RCR-9

"I have so many great things to say about this radio, so I've tried to organize this review because I could go on forever. Exceptional. I would recommend it to strangers, not to my family or friends *because* I love showing it off so much." - G. on WR-11

"This is the best job site radio I've ever owned. As far as being a radio, it far surpasses the DeWalt, Bosch, Milwaukee, or the Rigid all of which I've owned or used. Some of the others have features like a 115V outlet, etc. that this does not, but I bought it to use as a radio, not an extension cord or a charging station" - ZS. on U4

Sangean products have also been recognized with "Amazon's Choice".
