New alarm clock
Yes. There. After the months to follow the products displayed in stores, I found a clock radio that does what I need. What do I need a clock radio? Besides the obvious functions that a device of this type must have, including, importantly, the function of "Sleep," I need the headset jack / stereo earphone and a feature that I doubted to be able to find, but that logic, can not 'miss: If the headset and' Enter the alarm clock should feel the same. If it were not already 'clear enough so' explain it in another way. I listen to music on the radio the evening before bedtime. The function of "Sleep" does just that and I think many people know and use. Of course you can 'happen to those who are in the same room may not like the music at night, and so' use earphones. What happens, however, 'if after the amount of time the radio is turned off but the headphones, of course, be left in place because' the user is sleeping? The answer 'that many clock radios remain silent,' cause with the headphone jack included the speaker and 'disabled. Funny is not it? Then this clock radio can 'be used in two different ways, but not at the same time. Even if you are using the buzzer instead of radio as an alarm signal, it typically does not change because 'the tone of the speaker uses the same radio. So 'I've been waiting to see if I had to have two devices on the table: one for the evening, one for the morning. Instead
a Saturday when I had better things to do, I went into a store Media World and I found a curious-looking alarm clock and solid in practice and 'a small speaker with a control panel with three round knobs, a display, two buttons, a light sensor. I have tested and, magic, The radio also if there 'a headset inserted. Apart from the fact that it 'heavy, heavy, bulky (but only when measured as a simple alarm clock) there' and also to say that 'expensive: € 149. But more sophisticated clock radios and small stereos or compact docking station similar cost figures and also (much) more. In short, 'cause hesitation? I finally found what I wanted. Apart from the characteristic described above and the other decisive feature 'was the sound: it has a quality' sound very impressive for the size, and in fact 'with bass reflex. The alarm in question 'and the model of Boston and' Horizon Solo. "
For the truth 'I had a small "problem" with this radio: after a few days I suddenly realized that the volume, which normally is 50, did not exceed the value 10. I sent an email to Boston, but since it was the eighth day of purchase I could not wait and risk, and I've made the change: from World Media have always been kind and quick in these things. As indeed in other shops I frequent, fortunately.
The same evening I get the response from Boston, told us that the system was probably active "hospitality mode" which limits the volume of the radio to use it in hotels or similar situations where you do not wish to disturb to nearby rooms. How did I accidentally put this mode '? Boh, But 'I remember a lot initially tinkered with the radio and try to find out all the features', obviously with the manual in hand. Well, maybe I should go to Media World to say you do not need assistance for your product, but only a new configuration. However, apart from the hassle of going to do the replacement, the only thing that 'changed and' that I now have room in the clock radio that was on display (the one that I had thoroughly tested in the store) and that it ' different color: this' white one I bought originally was gray (the two visible in the picture).
Now I have stopped using the stereo of your stay to listen to music at night: I have a thread that comes in the room and to which I connected a potentiometer (actually two in series) to adjust the volume remotely. My stereo and 'connected to a timer function that allows me to' sleep and then, after the allotted time, turn off the electricity. The radio that I bought and 'much more' convenient 'cause it allows me to change from normal in the headphones or earphones to listen and to change the station or to extend / shorten the time off without having to move room to lie down and even .
All right then, and if anyone has ever looked for a clock radio with these features and to know that it exists and that 'high quality'.
