Digital camera reviews of Sony XDRF1HD HD Radio Tuner
Digital camera Review: A good basic high definition radio tuner
Summary: 4 Stars
The tuner comes with a remote control and two antennas. RCA cables to connect it to an amplifier are not included. The sound quality is good. For am stations that also broadcast in high def, it is much better sound. FM stations produce somewhat better sound. It is fairly easy to use; the best way to use it is to use station preset. Otherwise, it offers scanning and manually going up and down the frequencies.Digital camera Review: A good deal with the $50 rebate.
Summary: 4 Stars
This tuner allows you to add HD radio to your stereo system. The improvement in AM fidelity is noticeable, but the difference on most of the FM stations is negligible. The added stations are the best feature. If you plug the tuner into a switched outlet or if you lose power, you will lose all of the station presets. This is annoying. It seems that the signal has to be very strong to receive the HD broadcast, which might be a problem in weak signal areas. Overall, I am pleased with this product [...].Digital camera Review: A great alternative where FM reception is marginal
Summary: 5 Stars
My favorite FM radio station changed their transmitter resulting in unacceptably weak reception for me even with a roof antenna. I saw other reviews of this receiver stating that it had good sensitivity. My reception went from marginally unacceptabe to vertually perfect. In additon, the sound quality was better than I had ever received before on FM. There is no provision to go back to analog reception once it switches to HD. I am not sure if this is an advantage or disadvantage. My only gripe about this unit is that the background light on the display stays on all the time, making it inapproperiate for bedroom use.Digital camera Review: A small HD radio tuner with big results
Summary: 5 Stars
Sony XDRF1HD HD Radio Tuner This small tuner does what it's supposed to, and I can listen to HD radio in all its clarity for a very reasonable price. Its setup was easy and trouble free. [...]Digital camera Review: A super value if you like HD radio
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product! I can't believe retailers aren't carrying it. It installs easily, picks up even weak stations (much better than a $500 tuner which sits next to it), and provides great sound quality through your amp. The package isn't real pretty, but if you're more concerned with sound quality than how it looks, this is the one for you.
