Question: Are these radios the newer ones that the tuning and sound problems are resolved?
Document: NOTHING! I could faintly hear 2 or 3 AM stations struggling to come in. Now, we live in Maine and there's hills and valleys everywhere. But having read earlier reviews, I was satisfied that the problems with earlier radios had been fixed and that I would be pleased with the improved version. I then called Sangean and the tech there checked the serial number and date of manufacture and told me I had an older, unimproved version.
This radio had been on my radar for a long time, and I had very high expectations for it. I love its retro styling, analog tuning, and generally its overall design. Given my good experiences with the Sangean brand, I had very high hopes for this one.Then I got the radio. What a disaster. The radio struggles to pull in stations that I grab with ease on much cheaper handheld radios.
I have read reviews here indicating that some of the earlier models of the WR-12 had quality problems leading to signal wandering and, perhaps, sound reproduction. The 2012 Sangean WR-12 that I received showed none of these problems;  it stayed on station and the tone was surprisingly good. I have two (2) WR-11 models and like them; the WR-12 seems at least as good and (to me) has moments of mellow tone that approach the old tube sound.
Sound is lifeless and can't be remedied by any amount of tweaking of the bass and treble controls. The tuning dial is very inaccurate (fixable, sure, but I shouldn't have to, and it further reflects the poor-to-nonexistent QC that Sangean apparently did on these units).Two stars for the the concept of this radio (which I still do love). Zero for performance.
Sound is awful! Otherwise it's a very nice looking paperweight. Called the company they said a revised version is in the works. Company said return it and hope I get a newer version if I order in the future, What? Not what I expected from Sangean have a WR-11 and Love it.
My main concern with the WR-11 was it appeared the scale of the tuner readout would make it difficult to find a specific station, which lead me to prefer the WR-12 with it's nearly full width display. Although I was very concerned about the reported issues (both here and elsewhere), I went ahead and ordered one based on reports that the issue fixed and Amazon's stock had been purged.I am happy to report that I have none of the tuning or sound issues reported.
I'm returning the 11 and keeping the 12.Given other reviews I'm guessing most WR-11s are just fine, and according to Sangean's rep all WR-12s available through Amazon also check out fine. Just be aware that there have been problems.
This radio has both AM and FM bands something difficult to find on many radios on the market. The radio is giving us clear broadcast signals in both AM and FM. Excellent product and value
There are no drift issues others had experienced and the readout was accurate.Other pluses:  The backlit display looks wonderful at night, the cabinet is real wood, the controls have a nice solid feel, and the large tuning knob make it easy to fine tune reception.
The knobs and buttons are all PLASTIC. The tuning knob is where you expect the volume knob to be. AM reception is overcome by noise on modified sine-wave AC power, which is not uncommon and only critical if you power the radio from an inverter and want AM reception (FM is fine).
Answer: Hi Roy, No I had the older version.
