WR-860 FM Wi-Fi Internet Radio with Stereo Speakers, Alarm Clock, Sleep Timer, Line Out, Aux in, Stress Relief, Relaxation and Sleep Aid, 2.4" Color Display

Bought this for my mom. Her new place has crappy FM reception, but she has wifi. So this radio fit the bill perfectly. She gets all day classical music from stations around the world. The sound (AAC) is awesome and it's easy for her to use after I programmed a bunch of stations for her.

There is a fairly steep learning curve with this device. You really have to read the owner's manual, but it can do all sorts of things related to playing voice and music via bluetooth, internet radio, aux input, etc. It also has clock-radio functions, but I haven't used those. I use bluetooth to play an extensive playlist from Apple music on my iMac, podcasts using the Mac, but more than anything, internet radio for classical radio stations around the US and in Europe. The stereo sound is quite decent at this price point. It looks nice. I just wish there were more than three buttons for saved radio stations on top, although you can actually save over 100 using the display or remote. Overall, I'm very pleased with it. I actually own two, purchased several months apart and located about 500 miles from each other.

The radio speaker produces clear voice and good music range. This unit has no BT transmitter, so I had to buy a standalone one, the 1Mii B06TX works with the radio totally sweat-free. The radio manual is in serious need of re-writing - I thought I was good at following directions, but this one is a challenge. At any rate, the radio has been working great using the speaker or my headphones.

I'm mostly using the Ocean Digital WR-860 for internet radio, as I'm too far away from the FM stations I like. I did put the unit through its paces to test all its abilities (except for one mode) and here are my results: (Internet radio) It shines here, with Skytune as its engine. Hundreds of stations and genres, good onscreen information, solid performance given a solid broadband connection. Easy to mark favorites. (Media centre) It found my private DLNA server (local Plex media server on my laptop) immediately, good interface. (DAB HD radio) Unable to test this, no DAB broadcasters in my part of the world. (FM radio) Okay results, mostly because I don't have a lot of local broadcast options. Manual tuning mode is cumbersome, but you can choose scanning signal strength between "strongest stations only" and "all stations." (Bluetooth) Paired right away, latency of around half a second. Worked fine. Note: bluetooth only one direction, from another device to send audio to the radio unit. If you want to use bluetooth wireless headphones or earbuds for output, you'll need a dongle to plug into the output jack. (Aux-in) Worked exactly as expected. (MP3 on USB) (MP3 on Micro SD card) Worked fine, but does not interpret metadata, album covers or sort. If a folder equals an album, you can choose it individually. Alarms, sleep timers, audio EQ, remote control (included) and remote control via smart phone app all available and functional. Some depth to the menus, but the scrolling knob on top is a great help. The volume knob is incremental. Buttons atop unit are responsive and quick, remote buttons are standard and effective. I wish there was an easy way to switch between daytime mode, with the unit making sound but showing the clock, and nighttime mode, with the unit in standby and the clock very dim or off but not in power off mode via the back switch. The display is dimmable, but then I want it brighter the next day. Not a huge deal. Overall this unit is exactly what I was looking for.

It's hard to know where to start, SOUND: Amazing Bass, way more than I expected and very clean. EQ: Several Presets for different types of broadcasts + Customer Custom. Ease of SetUp: I am 72 and had it set up and connected to WIFI in less than 20 minutes and I have a long password. QUALITY: The quality is excellent though screen could be a bit larger, layout is nice with knobs and buttons on top. FM sensitivity I wish I could manually tune but it only scans for stations, I live in Northern Washington and listen to some Canadian radio and can pick up on internet but not tune manually so no DXing here, I will try scanning in mono scan and see if I get the Canadian station. So still learning but so far I like this radio a lot. SIZE: It's big 12.5" W x 7.5" D x 6" H. SCREEN: It is a color screen, about 2.5" Diagonal, words and numbers are a bit small for my old eyes from 2 feet but fine at 1-1.5 feet. EASE OF USE: At 72 I have had no problems navigating this radio or connecting to WIFI with it. I have knocked down one star because of not being able to manually tune this radio but also still learning and many would never need that option. I bought this with my own dollars and was not giving any deal or agreement for this review and hope this will help others.
