    Now THAT'S a clock! Not sure if it's my cup of tea, the aesthetics, but seeing an analog clock and slide-rule dial is a vintage look I haven't seen before on a new radio.

      This one came and went fast. Now it can only be found on eBay. I hope it makes a come back on Amazon.

    It looks so cool. I hope it functions as well as it looks!

    Hej Todderbert, thanks for the review. I have looked at this Videyas Retro FM/AM/SW/Bluetooth radio a bit, but it looks very cool with the clock. I have a Prunus J-150 BTS FM/AM/SW retro radio, and I actually bought another Prunus J-150 a while ago. I absolutely love the Prunus J-150 radio. But, as you say, if you have the Prunus J-150, it is better to stick with that radio, so I think I will skip this one. I love the old retro clock, though. Take care, Todderbert, and have a nice evening.

    Another great demo post. Thanks. My side table might need one of these. 😉 Too bad about the AM 9k stepping. 3” speaker is a plus. My usual question: Is the speaker getting both sides of the stereo mp3/bt and FM sources or is it one sided. How about the earphone Jack? 🤔

    • @todderbert

      The speaker delivers both channels on FM/MP3/BT. There is no headphone jack, only an AUX-In one.

    You're right--would've been SO COOL with a lighted clock and/or dial. Oh well.

    Great radio it sounds good Through my phone speakers it would be nice if the clock was an alarm type

    This reminds me of the xHDaTA d-901. The d-901 has good sound and is fun to take apart to experiment with it has decent fm am and sw and a good antenna. The BT stuff is not some thing i use.

    How is the clock battery change ? thank you very Much.

    • @todderbert
      @todderbert  13 днів тому +1

      It stops when you pull the battery out, though you shouldn't have to do that for years.

    I hope the S2 isn't like the Videyas AM/FM/ SW 1-7 unit you reviewed awhile back that I purchased. Worked up to the point when on a dry winter day, I built up a static charge while listening to SW and touched the antenna and after the crack of static Shortwave was no longer able to receive. Sad 'cause AM was pretty good and FM not too bad, but mother nature didn't like SW. Simple junked it but saved the 18650.

    I prefer the looks of the S1 a bit better. A bit of a car radio vibe imho

      Yeah, I like it too. Maybe it can be found on eBay still. May have to check Aliexpress, though I'm typically not a fan of that site.
