Review: Just what we were looking for - We wanted a small portable radio to move around between the workshop, the truck and the below-grade basement. As expected, this radio (and none of the other radios and antennas we've tried) cannot pick up AM stations here in the mountains. But this little guy picks up FM stations from as far as 200 miles away, even in the basement. Other than a low price for good quality, though, we also really wanted an mp3/cellphone/iphone port so we can listen to audiobooks and our music files while travelling in our truck, which is too old to offer an mp3 plugin to the truck speakers. Now, even when driving down an interstate in the rain, this little radio allows us to listen to a book, our music, etc. The sound quality is perfectly acceptable, though not as good as the truck speakers. NOTE: this radio does not plug in to AC or to cigarette lighters. It is solely battery powered, but we use the Eneloop batteries and a smart charger to make recharging simple, quick and relatively inexpensive. After a month of use, we found this radio to be a good buy that looks pretty durable. Review: Really, pass up all those smaller portables, even the 306...this radio will make you smile. - I can't stop smiling :) this radio is that good! Buy one and join the "be happy" clubhouse. Hap-Hap-Happy! this radio is so fine. I'm totally biased in my opinion for your information. Sony fanboy forever. Features I like about this radio: * FM Stereo....through headphones...through it's own dual speakers. * Audio in...plays back in stereo! * AM Reception is fantastic, will do a band scan in the future. * Audio out. * It's a Sony. * Nice analog controls...so easy to tune. * Headphone port is clear with no noise at low levels..sweet! * Overall look, its so sleek. * Audio quality is great for small speakers..I'm not into bass..it's perfect for me. Features that could be added or improved on: * LED power indicator. Important. * Dial on front instead of top. If you have $45 to drop, buy this radio now and enjoy some sweet tunes! Its so good. Really, pass up all those smaller portables, even the 306...this radio will make you smile...I'm still smiling :) ## Features - Compact stereo travel speaker - Convenient size for easy portability - Built-In FM/AM Radio Tuner - Built-In power amplifier - Audio-In jack for listening to audio devices ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007TSX4QI | | Additional Features | Portable | | Antenna Location | Music, News | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo | | Battery Average Life | 45 Hours | | Best Sellers Rank | #953,871 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #728 in Portable Headset Radios | | Brand | Sony | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Laptop, MP3 Player, Smartphone, Tablet | | Connectivity Protocol | Aux | | Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (218) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00027242840607 | | Is Waterproof | False | | Item Weight | 0.4 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Sony | | Model Name | SRF-18 | | Model Number | SRF-18 | | Mounting Type | Tabletop Mount | | Number of Audio Channels | 2.0 | | Number of Batteries | 1 AA batteries required.

Sound is good too. I use it in my bathroom to listen to the radio while I get ready for work. **Q: Is it made in US or Japan?** A: Made in China. this is a very nice radio! **Q: Does it only work with 2 AA bateries? Or does it have optional power cable?** A: It only works with 2 AA batteries, however, this radio is far from power hungry. I have had the radio for several months using it on occasion for at least an hour at t time and i am still onthe first set of alkaline batteries. You could use rechargeables and I suppose you could hook up a power supply connecting to the internal spring contacts with aligator clips but Hey! this is a portable radio!Not a ton of bass but surprisingly good fidelity and great stereo separation. Even played loudly the batteries will last a long time. **Q: Does it plug in** A: No, it takes only 2 AA batteries for power. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just what we were looking for *by D***C on December 17, 2012* We wanted a small portable radio to move around between the workshop, the truck and the below-grade basement.

So I purchased it at once when I saw it on sale. By the way, look around, I purchased it lower than $30. In terms of functions, it has a stereo sound, which is very rare in today's radio market. Its small stereo speakers do provide clear and fuller sound for a single people indoor listening. Its reception is very good, better than my $10 Sony ICF-S10MK2, and Sony sw-33 shortwave radio's Fm reception. Besides, this radio has a stereo earphone jack. For many people, stereo earphone jack may be thought as a of-course function in any audio piece today, however this is the only Sony FM/AM Radio in today's market coming with both speakers and stereo headphone jack.(Before the coming of this one, i think that only Sony short wave radio priced more than $100 has stereo headphone jack ). This jack is a great plus to many people need it. This radio has another function: to serve as a media dock to play the music put into it. For this function, its small speakers provide the sound what they can provide. I have no complain for this part. Now, why do I give 4 star? its stereo headphone jack is not as good as Sony sw-33 I have. I think that main problem is output power. It can not drive 300ohm Sennheiser HD600 headphone properly, though it can handle sony v6 headphone. But sony has the tech in its shortwave radio to drive 300ohm headphone. So hope that sony can upgrade this part in the new update of the radio. By the way, if sony can make this radio drive 300ohm headphone as its shortwave radios, then this radio can even be used as a headphone amplifier. In short, if you do not know what I am complaining about, then this is a five star radio. Maybe, I expect too much for $30 bulks. ----------------------------------- Update 12/07/2018 I come back to buy another one for my office. This small radio has magic in filtering the digital feeling of songs from laptop and iphone, and make them feel like old radio warm songs. Now, when I am working with my laptop, I connect this radio to the laptop and play youtube music at the background. The sound from this radio is so different from the sound directly from speakers of the laptop. It is also different from any Bluetooth connection speakers. The sound is simply warm and sweet for 1 ft or 2ft away one person listening. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/17358055-sony-srf-18-portable-am-fm-stereo-speaker-with-built](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/17358055-sony-srf-18-portable-am-fm-stereo-speaker-with-built) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
