Any specifications given? How does it compare to the normal 909 ?
I've been pretty with mine so far...

Mike I bought a Sangean 909 and never used it just to have a
reliable short wave portable receiver, after 3 months I powered it up
and found that the speaker was very distorted, when I complained to
the company I found that they would not give me any information
other than they would repair the problem for $152.00.


I will never buy a Sangean product again.

You have to PAY to repair a faulty new product on? Don't you get a
standard 12 month warranty in your country? Were you complaining to
Sangean or to the company from which you bought the radio?

Sangean radios are not top end products. You buy them and immediately
check them out upon getting them home. That way you can immediately
return it to the shop if faulty and get a replacement. That said, my 505
works adequately though I admit I rarely use it for shortwave. It looks
cheap and plasticky and it's my AM/FM general purpose unit for when I am
working outside or in the garage as it has better audio than my Sony
SW7600. Horses for courses I guess

Have you tried it with an external speaker or headphones to see if its
got a bad speaker? At least it might not be a total loss.

My 909 worked quite well out of the box - works even better now with
the RadioLabs improvements. *A fun RX.

Hey, there's an idea - send that 909 over to Radio Labs for repair.
They charge $40 +shipping for basic repair. Should be less than $150 -
they only charge $109 for the super 909 mods.https://www.radiolabs.com/repair/sangean.html

The RadioLabs repair used to include a fine new speaker.
