STRENGTHS:
The I-Sonic shines when it locks in a high definition channel.


WEAKNESSES:
AM exhibited fidelity that was no better than much less costly radios.


REVIEW:
Overall my experience with the I-Sonic has been a mixed bag. The radio's high definition performance pretty much lives up to expectations. Moreover, the ability to play DVD's and the portability of the I-Sonic are an added plus. Using the remote and menu system requires a little patience, but becomes pretty straightforward after the initial learning period. However, I have been disaponted by the AM performance. After trying the supplied external antenna and getting little improvement, I purchased an external antenna. This too failed to improve the performance. I must admit that this may be attributed to reception anomalies in my area.
