Sony SRF-M37W Walkman Digital Tuning Weather/FM/AM Stereo Radio (Black)

Dropped my first one that I had for many years, while walking along the surf on the beach. Didn't know I had dropped it when putting it back into my fanny pack. After about a quarter mile later, I realized it had not gone into Mt bag but had been dropped in the surf, I walked back to try & find it but it was nowhere to be found. Probably got washed out into the ocean. Don't know if it would have worked after falling into water anyway. But I ordered a new one online, was so glad to see they still sold them. I had bought my first one in the store. Then found the exact same radio online but was about double the cost of the original one I had. But I had the first one about 15 years. And it was so good, it still played like brand new. So after I got the 2nd one, it is exactly the same one I had lost. I used my old headphones with it because the one that came with the one I ordered had earphone covers that had dry rotted in the package. The foam material just crumbled into pieces. But the headphones were ok, just didn't have good ear covers. Can't find just the foam ear covers so the headphones can't be used since they hurt your ears without the covers. So I just used my old headphones with the radio & it works just fine. The radio is very good quality as my first one was playing like new when I lost it after 15 years. So I hope this new one lasts just as long. I would definitely recommend buying the Sony Walkman. It is small & easy to carry & store. It plays very well with exceptional reception if area stations. It has the weatherband station as well for up -to -date weather news. I was not excited about paying $250 for the new one but since it is such a good radio, I am sure I will get my money's worth out of it. Was disappointed about the headphones being stored so long that the speakers ear covers were dry rotted, but so glad I had the good headphones from my old radio to use. It has very high volume & good quality headphones cord. And the headphones are adjustable for head size. Came well packaged in original plastic container & was a never used radio - new. Except that it is a very outdated electronic device & had been stored for many years I am sure & that is why the headphones ear covers were old & dried up. But shipment & delivery time were excellent & I am well pleased to have the original Sony Walkman again.

I won't list the pros - the pros are everything they say that it does - it does those things. MOST everything is GREAT about this little unit - so buy it and you WILL enjoy it... The FM reception isn't the best in the world, but it gets powerful stations that are well known in my area. I wish there was a "scan to next station" button. There isn't, but you can 'hold' the station select button and it will move through the stations quickly...just won't stop at the next strong one. No big deal. WHEN YOU SET THE CLOCK -- be sure to LET GO of the CLOCK button after the minute it takes to hear the beep. THEN you set the time... I kept holding down the clock button and trying to set the time / my mistake... so push the clock button and then after the beep, LET GO and set the time. BUY better headphones for it. I recommend Titanium headphones by KOSS. They aren't that expensive and they are the BEST ever. The unit is very LIGHT in weight. Be careful not to drop it. (this is a good thing) The clip is small and for a BIG FAT guy this wouldn't do...over 6', over 200lbs, but I'm just a little slip of a thing so it's sufficient for me. No biggie though, I just hold it in my hand while I run (what I use it for). The weather station is picked up but it's very faint - but in dangerous weather - BEFORE the tornado comes, you'll be able to hear it and glad you have it / if your internet and tv go out. Battery life is unknown. It's true the clock stays on ... I don't think that sucks the battery a lot - does it? Who cares, it's just one measly AAA battery and that's just great. Wish it was YELLOW like the sony sport so I could find it easily - but I'm glad it's SMALL, smaller than a pack of cigarettes and about that weight. Overall I'm really happy with it and I think you will be too. It does exactly what it says and I have no doubt that is why it is so popular.

Un cadeau pour mon papi qui en est très content C'est cool de pouvoir enregistrer ses radios préférées ;) Et avec la marque Sony on est sur de bien capter les stations

I owned one of these before but I dropped it from the top of a set of ladders and it broke. I was pretty sad as this was by far the best radio I've ever owned of the "Walkman" type of pocket radio. I decided to replace it with something else which proved to be a mistake so in the end I have returned to this particular model. The presets are really great so there is no messing around with tuning and once set, it tends to hold the station. Once set up it is a time-saver for me whilst at work. I like the earphones a lot as they are light and reasonable quality and when I need to take them off in a hurry, its easy instead of the type you have to push into your ears which often fall out. Overall, a good radio and worth the price bearing in mind - you only get what you pay for. Sony quality and reliability.

Pues porque es un receptor, que no me ha decepcionado, lo queria para captar emisoras muy lejanas en onda media y el objetivo esta conseguido, siempre y cuando se salga de los nucleos de las ciudades el aparato funciona muy bien en AM, llegando a captar emisoras a miles de Km de distancia.

Seit vielen Jahren jogge,radele u.ä. ich mit dem Vorgänger des o.g.Gerätes. Mit der Zeit zerlegen sich die kleinen Radios, bedingt durch den häufigen Gebrauch. Wer beschreibt meine Freude (ich nich)als Sony eine Neuausgabe auf den erfreuten Markt warf, versehen mit einigen hübschen Verbesserungen. Z.B. ist nur noch 1 Batterie(1.5V) erforderlich. An den aufmerksam gewordenen Leser: Wohlgemerkt, es ist 1 Radio, kein MP3dings.

The best portable AM/FM radio with digital tuning I have found. This Sony radio is my second one and it never let me down. I use one at work for 6 to 8 hours almost non-stop for about a week and a half to two weeks. For about six years now... And now I got a second one for when I'm home. Its main strenght/advantage is that is small, probably the most portable that is out there. Also the one AAA battery required for operation lasts very long, as I mentioned 8 hours(every day) for about 8 to 10 days. And the reception is very good for both AM and FM, despite of being surrounded by a lot of metal sheets and lots of machinery while at work(which can interfere with the reception). This is a very good radio because it is very lightweight and it always works with low battery consumption. This is such a good radio that it deserves a better set of headphones, than the one it comes with. It is so practical when in use, that I barely notice that I'm listening to it right now, while I wrote this brief review.
