Summary: Sarge
Comment: Bought for my girlfriend. Said it worked very well, where she works. That's enough satisfaction for me.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: analog vs digital
Comment: compared to digital walkman
on the plus side: lighter, smaller, one aa that lasts longer than 2aaa (way cheaper), stereo sounds good when reception strong, no instant shut off when battery low to save presets (so you have some time to replace battery)
on the minus side: sounds bad when signal weak because it can't shift to mono (there should be a mono/st switch instead of local/distant), not as easy to jump from station to station.

Summary: my new walkman radio from sony
Comment: i really like the sony walkman fm/am radio it has a simply off and on button. the clip on the back does not open easy does not open wide enough to clip on my pants or shirt. so i put a sting on the clip and wear it around my neck so my hands are free to carry my weights while i am walking.

Summary: I Love This Radio
Comment: This little radio is the best! It's simple to use, ultra compact, and gets great reception. The headphones it comes with are not that great. Just switch them out for some small ear buds and you're good to go. For the price, you CANNOT beat this. Oh, and I love that it only needs ONE double A battery to function.

Summary: Great for the price!!!
Comment: I've bought at least 4 of these Sony radios now. Some of them, I gave away to family and friends. Very good sound quality, especially with a really good set of headphones. I up-size the output coupling caps on the ones I use for the most critical listening.
DO NOT judge this radio by the low-fi headphones it comes with...it's capable of MUCH more. It drives my Sony 7506 phones with ease.
The sensitivity is very good on both AM and FM. Batteries last forever. It's really an amazing deal for this price. Sony could probably repackage some of the SRF-59 radios without the headphones, and sell even more of them for less money, since the supplied phones are of little use to many of us.
