I have noticed that, on the SONY 7600G, the tone was significantly better than

I have the 7600GR and its not too bad. This summer I used it outside
as a work radio when painting a barn. Not stellar audio, but beats the
tinnyness of a pocket transistor radio and offers quality content
versus local FM (which it picks up too and sounds great).

A set of powered speakers with a subwoofer can fix just about any
undersized speaker (albiet at nearly the cost of the radio).
