The DCR-200+ is tall and slender (120mmW x 201mmH x 120mmD), with flat-membrane function buttons positioned on top.

The unique design of the DCR-200+ uses a downward firing speaker deflecting the sound 360° to fill the room with music in all directions. To help set the mood, elegant down lighting with eight brightness settings flows from the speaker area.

Another feature of the DCR-200+ is the voice message recording function, enabling users to leave 2 separate messages of up to 10 seconds duration. This feature is handy if you need to take a message or set a reminder to do something and you don’t have a pen and paper handy. The radio also has an easy to set countdown timer (up to 120 minutes) that is useful in the kitchen to time dinner or dessert preparations.

The DCR-200+ has an impressive 28 station memories (14 DAB and 14 FM) and the auto tune feature assists with speedily scanning for your favourite radio programs. An easy to read LCD display with adjustable backlight and dimmer, alarm with tuner, buzzer or voice message settings and adjustable alarm level, round off the package.

General manager marketing & sales Robert Costello says, “If listening to the radio is a big part of your day, the Sangean DCR-200+ digital clock radio is portable enough to transfer room to room, from the bedroom when you wake up in the morning, to the lounge-room or kitchen during the day, then back to the bedroom to set your alarm for the next day.
