La seconde est beaucoup plus moderne, bien que son style soit très classique, au sens nineties du terme, bien sûr.
L’ICF-M1000, “The Radio”, est à la fois une radio AM/FM et une enceinte permettant la connexion d’un appareil externe, comme un lecteur MP3.

N’arrivant pas à trouver la fiche technique chez Sony, elle ne fonctionne que sur secteur. Ses dimensions sont 300 x 120 x 170mm. Le prix public est de $ 150, même si on peut la trouver pour moins cher.

A nice sounding radio but too expensive, June 6, 2006
Reviewer: Chuck (Huntington, WV United States) - See all my reviews
My guess is that this is Sony’s “upgrade” to their classic table radio they have carried for years. I ended up with this radio as a gift from my ex-wife (guilt gift, parting gift who knows(rolling eyes)). It does have a nice sound and is very cool looking. However, it is more like a $100 dollar radio, not a $150 radio. I also own a Sangean WR-1. It is downstairs the Sony up. Personally, I like the Sangean better for sound. It has a tuned port and good bass. The Sony has a port in front but it does not move the air the Sangean does. The Sony however has a more balanced sound and a tone control that actually does affect the tone, it is not just for looks. It also has line in/out jacks for satellitte, MP3 etc. I like the Sangean better because I am partial to slide rule tuning. The Sony does tune in well and picks up stations very well. In my review of the Sangean, I am excited. As for the Sony, it is a very good radio but not a great one. Again overpriced. The Sangean WR-1 radio toasts the other 2 competitors (rhymes with ravioli and the Mass. capitol) brand radios as well for sound and quality IMHO. I have heard all 4. You decide. In the future, when you see the Sony ICF-M1000 selling on E-Bay for less than $100, (and you will) then it will be a fair exchange.

Excellent radio but priced a little high., June 2, 2006

I just read N. Schweitzer’s review of this radio and I feel he is a little to harsh and missed the mark on his review. After having owned this radio for about 6 weeks I feel qualified to review it.For the record I also own a Tivoli Model Two with Sub and CD Player. The Tivoli does sound much better in stereo mode but unplug the sub and right speaker and I feel that it is no better than the Sony.

About the Sony, It has a very high gloss finish with a deep shine. It reminds me of the finish on a fine piano. I personally feel that the cloth speaker grill gives it a classy look as compared to the look of the Tivoli.

The knobs have a silky smooth feel to them and the display is very easy to read. The Tuner is easy to operate and locks onto weak stations with ease. It is easier to find your station on Sony’s digital tuner than it is with the Tivoli’s analog tuner. One nice feature of this radio that the Tivoli lacks is the tone control. It allows you to fine tune the audio to your personal taste.

I feel that Sony fell short on a few things though. They could have included some presets for the tuner. It also would have been nice to have the option to add a stereo speaker and a sub woofer similar to the Tivoli Model Two. The Sony does have a stereo headphone jack but who wants to listen with headphones on? If you keep this radio in your bedroom be warned, the display is bright and cannot be dimmed.

True the cabinate is not made of cherry wood like the Tivoli but with the type of finish on this radio it doesn’t matter. One thing the sony is better at is the way the electronic PC boards are constructed. The Sony uses Surface Mount Technology (SMT) and is a much cleaner and better assembled than the Tivoli.

Bottom line, if you want a modern looking Mono Table Radio and have the money to spend, you will be very happy with the Sony.

Mediocre performance and design at a premium price, May 17, 2006

This radio from Sony is placed to compete with similar products from Tivoli (Henry Kloss Model One) and Boston Acoustics (Receptor Radio). All of these products are single speaker (mono) AM/FM radios that contain no CD or cassette players and have no remote control. If that is not what you are looking for in a radio, this product is not for you; however, if you are looking for a simple tabletop radio, continue on.Sony hoped to cash in on the popularity of simple table radios, however their offering falls short of its competitors. The radio is gloss black with a black fabric front that hides the speaker. It is significantly larger than the other radios in this class, about double the size of either the Kloss or the Receptor. Despite the size of the cabinet, the speaker is roughly the same size as those found on the other radios. The LCD display is small and somewhat hard to read from certain angles (there is an acrylic prism sitting on top of the LCD that reflects the image forward and upward). There are three knobs on the front that control tuning, volume and tone. The radio is built well, but I think the black fabric makes it seem a bit cheap. Removing the fabric cover exposes the cheap wood interior and lowers the aesthetics even further.

By itself this radio has a decent sound, and the tone control allows for tweaking of the sound quality. However when I compare the sound quality to that of the Kloss and Receptor, this product again falls short. This radio lacked the bass response of its competitors, despite its much larger size. Midranges were decent, comparable to the others (talk radio sounds almost the same among the three radios). Trebles were decent, although slightly muddled unless the tone control was set to high. On the plus side, the tuning was accurate and the reception clear, probably the best of the three, although all are very good.

The Sony radio has line-out/line-in 1/8″ jacks in the rear for connecting to an mp3 or CD player (as does the Kloss, but not the receptor). There are no alarm-clock functions on this radio, which further limits its usefulness.

In conclusion, this would be a very decent radio if it were fifty dollars. However, Sony has set the price so that it competes with radios that are far superior to it. If you are to spend this kind of money on a table radio, I suggest you look elsewhere (I recommend the Receptor Radio).
