| Editor Reviews: Product Description: Quite frankly, the Comet is one of the most innovative products Crosley has ever developed. Don't let its diminutive size fool you. This little receiver was designed entirely around the speaker enclosure and sound chamber. Even its shape is no accident. Inspired by one of Powell Crosley's original designs from the 1940's, the unique curve of the Comet functions as a "funnel" to improve bass response. If radio isn't your thing, take advantage of the portable audio-ready feature. Take your favorite MP3 player, CD player, or satellite radio and "hook it up" with the included connection kit. Featuring a 3" full-range studio quality driver and discrete amplification system, you will be amazed again and again by the clarity of your favorite tunes or talk. Amazon.com Product Description: Inspired by one of Powell Crosley's original radio designs from the 1940s, the CR220 Comet combines an eye-catching retro design with modern engineering, creating a true one-of-a-kind table radio. The Comet is distinguished by the unique top curve of the cabinet, which not only pays tribute to the streaking pathway of an actual comet, but also functions as a "funnel" to improve bass response. As a result, the CR220 sounds as good as radios costing several times as much. Accentuating the design are a pair of bronze-colored control knobs, a large left-side 5:1 ratio analog airplane tuning dial, and a 3-inch, full-range, studio-quality speaker with a discrete amplification system. The radio's bold artistry and craftsmanship are sure to grab visitors' attention--it's an ideal accent piece for the home or office--while the full array of audio functions will keep you happily humming to your favorite tunes. Another nice bonus is the portable audio-ready feature. The Comet's connection kit and auxiliary input let you output sound from a portable MP3 player, iPod, CD player, or satellite radio receiver to the built-in speaker, so you can listen to the devices in any room without buying a portable speaker system. Also equipped with a 12-volt DC jack for listening in a camper, car, or boat (adapter not included) and a headphone jack for private listening, the Comet measures 10 by 5 by 5.25 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.
