But the performance of the radio is disappointing.I am not using a Switch Mode Power Supply as it may cause disturbance in hearing AM band .I am using a converter of 25 watts to convert 230 Volts AC into 120 Volts AC to plug in the radio. This radio can accept only 120 Volts AC or 12 Volts DC, 1 Amp. . As far as the FM band is concerned, the sound quality is perfect.The prime quality of a radio should be its sensitivity which this radio lacks. It cannot pick up distant FM stations.My old Indian made PHILIPS radio could trace four FM stations from Tamil Nadu,my nearby state, other than five local FM stations of my state. Only local powerful FM stations can be heard through this radio.Regarding the AM band it is totally useless. Only some noise is coming out. Even at night I could not hear even a single AM station through this radio.I thought it may be due to the signals from some nearby electronic devices.But when I tried with my Indian made PHILIPS radio,it could pick up more than twenty five AM stations at night.,So if you want to hear only the local powerful FM stations in good sound quality you may purchase this radio.Don't expect anything more. The price is high when the overall performance is concerned. The vintage look and design of this radio with wooden cabinet is appreciable. Edit:- Now it is more than three months since I purchased this product. I thought that it might be due to the lack of a good out door antenna that this radio is not picking up distant stations. I purchased an omnidirectional FM antenna through desertcart and mounted it at the top of my house and connected it to this radio's external FM ant terminal using a coaxial cable.To my surprise,I could hear several distant FM stations clearly .I get FM stations even from Kochi now. I am sure this radio can pick up more distant stations if I raise the height of the external antenna.But due to the threat of lightning I can't do it now. I connected an external AM antenna too and now I am getting several AM stations .So now I am changing my rating of this radio to 4 star from 2 star. I love this radio .

The volume control no longer works properly. Yes the Tivoli one has a greater depth of sound. But the price point was important to me as this radio gets minimal use. So I am pleased with the purchase. Check consumer reviews for the Tivoli model one. **Q: My Fm reception is poor. How can it be improved?** A: Try the external antenna (extended, switch it to external). Try another location in the house for the radio. Try orienting the antenna differently and at least a foot away from large metal objects (which could change the nature of the antenna or block the signal). Try using a dipole antenna located remotely, higher, or in the clear with respect to the desired station. This may mean a getting a balun ($5), some coax (several dollars), and a folded FM dipole antenna ($7). Finally, consider putting an RF preamplifier between the folded dipole antenna and the radio. If none of that helps, you have a difficult location, a faulty radio, or a requirement to receive a station with too weak a signal to your location.When it's finally working and you realize that it has a serious deficit in fidelity (muddy, bassy, little midrange, no highs), as I did, put a more ordinary radio nearby and turn it up just enough to hear the midrange and highs. The combined sound will be a lot more like you had hoped for to begin with. I am profoundly displeased with the lack of audio fidelity and range in this radio. It is essentially a subwoofer with a tuner and not much more. How people rate it so highly is a complete and utter mystery to me. A profound ignorance of audio fidelity in the population at large, I guess. **Q: What's the difference between both Sangean models?** A: the wr 11 model is a manual tune radio with the old fashioned slide rule tuning, the wr2 is a digitally tuned model similar to modern car radios..including theability to preset the channels you listen to most. **Q: This is a one speaker product (mono speaker), correct? How is the sound?** A: is correct, is Mono speaker, has a very good sound, perhaps for the soundboard and the speaker, I buy for my mother because it is very simple to use with basic buttons, she is so happy. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ After reading so many reviews stating that the SANGEAN WR 11 is a good radio, I ordered for this product *by S***T on 26 January 2018* I am living in Trivandrum ,Kerala State, South India.I have been longing for a sensitive radio which can pick up distant stations in both AM and FM bands.After reading so many reviews stating that the SANGEAN WR 11 is a good radio,I ordered for this product.

She had inspected many radios, sold locally, and refused to give any of them a try. They were "plastic, cheap, contraptions." So you can understand my apprehension, purchasing this one for her, sight unseen. When I delivered the radio, she watched apprehensively, as I pulled it from the box. Then with closer inspection, it was love-at-first-site. She literally caressed the walnut cabinet commenting, "This looks like an old-timey, radio---just what I wanted." Simply put, this solidly built little radio has timeless elegance, coupled with ultimate simplicity and I found it outperformed any table-top radio I have ever had. The sound is clear and rich and once tuned to a channel, there is no annoying channel drift, or static. I was amazed at how the sound filled the room, from such a small package. There is a tuning light that indicates when you have the best reception in your area, for a particular channel. FM sounds awesome, and I found no problems with weak AM reception, or not picking up channels. My mom has always had a radio at her bedside, to lull her to sleep. With only three knobs controlling operation she commented, "I can actually reach over and operate it in the dark." If you knew my mom, you'd know why I'm celebrating my victory. She's been around the block a few times and is tough to please! She demands quality! I'm so fond of this radio that I'm considering ordering one for myself. It is attractive enough to make a nice addition to any room and I'm sure that many visitors would want to know 'where'd you get that,' since it's increasingly hard to find quality workmanship these days. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sangean WR-11 Wood Cabinet AM/FM Table Top Analog Radio Wooden - 12 Sections Telescopic Aerial Antenna FM 75 Unbal for All F Connector Radio and Compatible with Tivoli Audio Model One, Two, Three,Musicsystem Radio - FM Dipole Antenna - Male "F" connector --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/214334214-wr-11-am-fm-table-top-radio](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/214334214-wr-11-am-fm-table-top-radio) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
