Crane is heavily marketed in some venues. like late night talk radio.
Crane's stuff is made cheap overseas. I did buy one though, Many
years ago. The Sangean CCRadio. It's AM/FM/WX. It is pretty
sensitive and brings in the weather very well. That was the main
reason I bought it. I live in tornado country. Its main claim to
fame is its DX capabilities in those bands. Only 5 presets though.
Digital with alarm. I put in my order as soon as I heard about it,
and I got a very low serial number. But it was recalled for a defect;
I sent it back and it returned repaired. As far as it goes, it's OK,
but the sound quality is what you'd expect from a cheap plastic
portable made nowadays.
What is the problem with making good-sounding radios? Is it that they
don't want to use quality speakers, or push-pull audio circuits with
quality components? With current technology, good tone control ought
to be nothing.
