DESCRIPTION:
See it. Hear it. Love it! Our new "ultimate" bedside clock/radio features a
big-digit LCD, big-sound stereo aluminum-cone speakers, loud ramp-up alarm, 20
soothing sounds...and more!
Sharper Image Design's new Big Screen Clock/Radio incorporates everything we've
learned about what people really want at their bedside when they wake up and
when they fall asleep.
The big LCD is the most distinctive feature — a full 3 1/2" diagonal screen with
time in giant 1 1/8" digits. The brightly backlit, easy-to-read display also
shows dual 12/24 time, date, temperature and alarm setting. Wake up to the
radio, Church Bells, a Sound Soother selection or a buzzer that ramps up in six
steps.
Flanking the big screen are stereo speakers that boast our state-of-the-art
aluminum-cone driver technology — the sound is just fantastic...something you
have to hear to believe from such small speakers.
The Sound Soother features our extraordinary selection of 20 sound environments
— from the exotic "Rainforest" to the familiar "Summer Night." Using the sleep
timer and versatile alarm function, you'll find it's quite pleasant to fall
asleep to a relaxing soundscape that masks disturbing noises; and then wake up
to something charming, like "Wind Chimes" or the songbirds of "Aviary."
The AM/FM world digital tuner, with 15 presets, is configured to receive radio
broadcasts in Europe and Asia — very unusual in any radio sold in the U.S., but
a great convenience when traveling. You'll also enjoy a TV-audio band for
listening to, say, the Today Show or other favorite broadcasts. For private
listening, plug in your own earbuds or headphones.
The housing is 9" wide x 4 1/2" high and 1 3/4" deep at the widest point of its
slim, gracefully curving profile. For portability, this Big Screen Clock Radio
With 20 Soothing Sounds runs on 6 AA batteries
(order separately); or plug in with the included AC adapter. Settings are backed
up by an included CR1616 battery. One-year warranty. Color: Silver.
