I received mine last night. Based on a quick run through it seemed sensitive on MW, good on SW and FM. I liked sound quality - treble and bass varied sound considerably. The beep when pressing the buttons or accidently hitting the snooze bar is annoying. The quality of the band selection knobs left something to be desired. Q-Tune feature is useful to move quickly through band. Were I to own only one radio, this would probably not be my choice. However, considering the price, the type radio, how I will use, sound, etc.. I like it.
Gary adds:
Harry - On the RP2100 and its clones, there is a way to cancel that button beep. Press and hold the Snooze button while the radio is on to toggle the button beep. Maybe this will work on the S450DLX as well.
Looks good Ace.
Seems to be a derivative of my lovely Redsun RP2100.
Good price too. Will wait for reviews
