Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Superb Clock Radio
This is one great clock radio. I live in a very mountainous rural area and am able to pick up stations I never could before. The included antenna does a fine job. There is virtually no station bleed.

I am puzzled by the various complaints in other reviews. The radio I received was in A+ condition and everything worked just fine. There are no issues with sudden time changes. You have an option to change the default view setting to radio station or time which automatically reverts the display to whatever you choose... radio station or time. The manual is very clear in that regard. Moving around the settings system is a bit awkward but you can pick it up quickly and the manual is helpful.

The back lit display is fine. Unless you're used to sleeping in a sealed cave, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - High quality sound
I agree with critics of this radio who say the alarm function is too complicated.

That said, I am very impressed by the sound, which is much better than average. Also, though I'm no expert, my sense is that the tuner is in the range of good to very good when it comes to picking up weak stations. (I live in a rural area.)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Best tabletop radio for the money!!
I purchased the Boston Acoustics Solo after much effort to find the best tabletop radio for the money. If you're looking for a high end am/fm radio with great reception and excellent sound, and for less than $100, this is the one. I also happen to love the design, but that's of course subjective and others may not. But be warned. This unit is known to have bugs. For me it was with the clock accuracy. Others have had issues with the alarm as well. The general consensus among those of us that can only settle for the best, is to keep returning it to the store for an exchange and don't stop until you get one that's not flawed. Internet shopping makes that task not so fun, but I had no problems getting an exchange through electronics expo. My second unit is free of any problems and has ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - LOW Tech Features
Has very good sound BUT, The radio alarms can only be set to the last station that was listened to. That means that although there are two separate alarms they will both be set to the same station. Also means that you cannot set the radio alarms to wake you up on an AM station tomorrow morning, for instance, if the last station you listened today was an FM station. For the price of this radio, you would expect it to have some reasonable memory features. I have a cheap-o Sony clock radio that I can set to two different wakeup stations and then go and listen to any other station that I want to without affecting my alarm settings. I grant you that the sound quality is not as good, but at least the tuner and memory features are current tech.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Boston Accoustics SOLO Review
Radio has a nice deep bass sound. The two alarms are nice and I really like how the face turns so you can have the radio horizontal or vertical. Listening to an external device is superb. Love the touch screen face and the light sensitive display. Only complaint is the weak antenna that needs to be draped around the room.
