Like all Sangean products, tone is well balanced and excellent for both talk and music, making the PR-D18 a leader in its class.

Review: Great little radio, well worth the price! - This is the second radio that I tried after needing to replace my very old, trusty GE portable radio (after dropping it far too many times, I finally broke the antenna for good, and the handle) . The first one was Sony ICF38 Portable AM/FM Radio (Black) which I HATED. See my review on that one. I did a lot of research on portable radios, looking for one that had excellent reception. Didn't want to spend a lot (wanted to keep it under $20). Bought the Sony for $25 because of excellent reviews. Sadly, my experience was not good so I returned that. Then I went back and increased my price range and decided to try this Sangean. I didn't want to spend much because I only use this radio on Sundays for Green Bay Packer broadcasts, and depending on the sync with the TV broadcast, I need to change the station to find the one that is closest in sync. Was never planning to spend $50 on a radio that I use so little, but conveniently it is my birthday and mom gives me $50 bucks so this became my birthday present. Anyway.... WOW....this little radio is awesome. I am glad it has the electronic tuning and the five presets for both AM and FM. This has made it much easier to lock in the stations that I am trying to tune. The sound is amazing and the size is perfect. My ONLY negative is that it doesn't have a handle, but with it's size and the slightly indented speaker, it makes it easy to carry around. Another plus is it also will fit in my front jeans pocket for those times that my hands are full. This radio has excellent reception. Even with the antenna folded down, this pulled in FM stations better than the Sony radio that I had bought previously (with the antenna fully extended). I was concerned about the battery life because of the electronics, and lighted screen. But other owners said battery life was pretty decent. I have tried rechargeable batteries in this, but it doesn't seem to like them as much so I switched to regular alkalines. I had forgotten this radio also has an alarm clock. I might just bring this one camping with me for that reason. I like the rubberized surround (the darker colored part) which helps keep it from slipping. Nice extra. SOUND: Excellent sound, and volume is amazing...minimal distortion when set at highest volume (which I will probably never use) No AC cord included: Not a big deal to me. I will only use it on batteries, so this allows it to have a smaller size since you don't need storage for the cord. No Handle: I thought this was going to be a big issue for me. It's not. Fits easily in your hand for carrying.
Review: Great radio!!! But make sure you get the right power adapter for it! - This little portable radio works great! Best AM reception I have ever heard on a small radio like this. It brings in distant AM stations well too. I don’t even have to extend the radio’s antenna at all when on AM channels. Unfortunately, the radio does not come with a power adapter to plug it into a wall outlet. You can order a 6 volt power adapter for this radio on desertcart but be careful! The first 6 volt power adapter I bought stated in its desertcart description that it was the following: “6V Power Cord for Sangean ADP-PRD18 Switching Charger for Sangean Models PR-D18 PR-D4W SG-104 CL-100 Radio Receiver AC Adapter” Well, it was not and I returned it! It was sold by a company on desertcart named, DONYOIE. No matter how I positioned the radio or how far it is from its transformer plugged into the wall outlet, this 6 volt adapter caused so much radio interference that I could not bring in any AM radio clearly at all! So I went back to desertcart and did some more searching and found another 6 volt adapter that is actually a Sangean product that was sold on desertcart by a company named Hour Loop. The actual Sangean adapter has a device clamped onto the cord that blocks all radio interference through the cord to the radio. My Sangean PR-D18 radio works great now when plugged into the real Sangean 6 volt power adapter! Be careful on desertcart because there are a lot of misleading products out there that may appear to be the one you are looking for, but it is not.

This little portable radio works great! Best AM reception I have ever heard on a small radio like this. It brings in distant AM stations well too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rock solid portable radio with great sound & reception
*by J***N on June 24, 2020*

I ordered this Sangean PR-D18BK as I was looking for something to replace an older camping type radio that was in our upstairs bathroom. The previous radio had a digital tuner and clock - both which had come in quite handy. But the sound of that radio was overly brittle and the tuning knob had become extremely skittish and hard to work with. A slight touch of the tuning knob would throw me way up-and-down the dial and thus tuning in the station I wanted was proving difficult more and more. I took note of all of the reviews that complemented the reception and the sound quality of the Sangean PR-D18BK. I completely agree with these reviews. This radio is extremely sensitive, more so than any radio in my house including my Onkyo home stereo (which does pretty well). The Sangean is on par with my car radio. The sound of this radio is very balanced and full bodied. It has a nice amount of treble without being overly bright - and a decent amount of bass for a small speaker. Even on AM which of course is not a decent sounding band anymore (compared to the 1950-1970'a when AM was the Top 40 radio band and radios actually had good sounding AM tuners, even AM stereo in the early eighties) this radio still has a decent AM sound and has great sensitivity as well. As far as FM, here in Denver I enjoy listening to an FM station that unfortunately is only a 99 watts and is on the far side of town. Even though it is on Lookout Mountain (where most Denver transmitters are) the signal has such low power that it struggles to come all the way across to the South East part of town where I live. This is the only radio in my house that picks up the station easily, again on par with my car stereo. If another one of my radios goes down for the count, I will probly get another 1 of these. I am extremely pleased with the Sangean PR-D18BK.
