I like the Recepter, too. FM reception is among the best I've tried,
and it receives some difficult stations that were completely out of
reach of a couple of expensive component tuners I have. AM seems O.K.
to me, but I'll defer to others as far as its performance in that
area, since I rarely listen to AM.

I agree that the sound can be bass-heavy on some material. I've found
that moving it a little further away from a corner or wall helps
though, if your nightstand allows that. I've had mine for almost 18
months now, and have been very happy with it.

the MW and FM antennas can be completely replaced by just hooking up
other antennas in the back of the clock/radio. The sound is . . .
