SONY ICF-CD830 AM/FM Stereo Clock Radio with CD Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this from another etailer since Amazon didn't have it. It's a great unit. CD player sounds very good, but not great with no extra buzzing or noises. You can select shuffle CD and can also select the particular track you want the alarm to start on. Radio has very good reception and sound. I have not used the buzzer yet so can't comment on how ok or annoying it is. The manual says it beeps and progressively changes. You can set the CD, radio, or buzzer for the alarm...one, all, or any combination of the three each with it's own seperate wake up time. I start with a soothing CD, then NPR comes on, and then the buzzer is the final backup in case I'm really lazy that day. The display is very good, visible from variety of angles and not so bright as to be annoying at night. The unit in general feels well made and I expect it will last awhile. Good value.

This model of the Sony Dream Machine line, which comes with a built-in CD player with shuffle/repeat, is designed to add the features of a CD stereo to your wake-up routine. It has 3D surround-sound speakers, including a centralized woofer. The Voiceplus system verbally announces the time and guides you through alarm setup and other features. With the nature sound alarm you can wake to the sound of a flowing stream or bird song.

Sony ICF-CD855VSIL TV/Weather/FM/AM 4 Band CD Clock Radio Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this for its sleek design, small footprint and CD capability. It was purchased for our babies room so that we could play CDs. We wanted something smaller and better looking than any of the boom boxes and not as expensive as the shelf systems at which we looked.
So your needs may differ if you plan to use this as an alarm clock.
We really like the size and sound quality for something this small. It is very easy to set up without even using the owners manual. The buttons are well placed and have a very solid feel. The unit has a very high quality feel to it as you would expect from Sony and considering the price.
All functions work as described so I won't spend a lot of time on them individually. Reception is excellent in FM mode, AM is a bit weaker. The TV and weather bands are very hit and miss as far as reception and was dissapointed that I could not get better reception from the preselectd weather frequencies as I live in a well populated area that is subject to severe weather.
CD works flawlessly but the size hinders the bass and mid-range a bit. But again, consideing the size of the unit I am more than happy with the sound quality. If sound quality is more important than size you may want to consider the Panasonic RC-CD350.
I have only four complaints about this unit... the wall wart power supply is huge, the LCD backlight is VERY bright, even on its lowest setting of three. This isn't too much of an issue for us as we will use it as a night light in our babies room. More frustrating is the fact that considering how bright the LCD backlight is it is difficult to read the LCD diplay. I couldn't use this if it were for my bedroom alarm clock. And the last is the lack of a battery back up. This is sort of silly in a unit that costs $80.
Bottom line is this is a high quality unit which has a few drawbacks that a unit of this price point shouldn't have.
Pros:
Sleek design (Only Panasonic was close on design)
Relativly small size (considering it plays CDs)
Good sound quality (Panasonic was better but bigger)
Solid feel (What you expect from Sony at this price)
Cons:
Huge wall wart transformer
VERY bright LCD backlight
Poor weather band reception
Difficult to read LCD
No battery back up

Sony ICFCD833 Dream Machine Clock Radio/CD Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been very happy with the sound quality and performance of the 833. One note though, the speakers will buzz if you crank up the volume all the way. The buttons are where you would expect and it is easy to program and, more importantly, to deal with early in the morning. I returned a Timex T600L because the snooze and off buttons were right beside each other...a missed meeting waiting to happen.

Sony ICF-CD815 AM/FM Stereo CD Clock Radio with Dual Alarm Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The old clock radio finally died and my husband and I thought it would be nice to have a CD player in the bedroom to listen to audio books in bed now and then (yes, I know, but it depends on the book!!). We've found the sound quality on such an inexpensive item to be extremely good, it's easy to tune the radio in and we like the huge time display - I can even see it without my glasses at night!! So far, it's awakened us at our ridiculously early get up time during the week without fail. No complaints - very happy with this clock/radio/CD player.
