Sony ICF-C793 AM/FM Clock Radio Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This unit is outstanding. Here's why:
- Size. It has a small footprint.
- SEPERATE DISPLAYS FOR THE TWO ALARMS! This is an awesome feature which on its own sold me. I don't have to fumble with buttons to see what the alarm times are. The radio alarm is on the left, the buzzer alarm is on the right. No confusion. When you can see the times, it's set. When the panels are dark, it's off.
- Easy to set using tactile feedback alone. Only three buttons: up, down, and set. The buttons are nestled on little shelves below each of the alarm panels.
- The alarm is plenty loud enough for me and just at the right pitch to make me get up and turn it off!
- The display is clear enough for me and not too bright. I can read it in bed and across the room. I can also tell if the alarms are set even if I can't read the numbers. The alarm panels are orange when lit.
- Perfectly capable digital tuner with 5 presets. Who needs more on a clock radio?
- Easy to find snooze button
- Battery-less power failure back up (it works)
- Durable construction. Feels solid. I have had mine for 2 years and it continues to work flawlessly.
Alright, nothing is perfect. The downfalls include a high price and a display that could be improved but as I said, it satisfies me! I wouldn't mind an escalading alarm - the kind that start soft and progress to loud.
I only came on Amazon tonight to buy a second one! Just wish that price would come down a bit.

Unique triple display with large time display is backlit for visibility in low light and shows at a glance all important functions, including current time and each of the two separate alarm time settings. Digital synthesized tuning locks-on to your favorite stations. Single-function keys at top and front of the unit are easy to reach and easy to use, allowing you to tune to preset stations, adjust alarm time settings or turn alarms on and off.Backlit LCD Display clearly shows you important information, even in low light. Digital Synthesized Tuner offers accurate, drift-free reception for AM and FM stations. Two different, distinct wake times can be set with Dual Alarm feature, for a built-in failsafe for those who can't get up right away. Or, to be more practical, set one time for yourself, and one time for someone else. Dream Bar is a larger than normal snooze bar making it easy to find when you want to doze for a few more minutes. Forward/Reverse Time Setting simplifies time and alarm settings, allowing you to easily move around the clock.
