- This video is a comparison of the Sony ICF-2010 (ICF-2001D) and the ETON E1 in a shortwave Single Side Band receiving situation. The station is Shannon Volmet with a relatively good signal.
Using the same extrnal antenna, the SSB reception on the Sony receiver seems to be a portion better, as the signal sounds more powerful with less beckground noise, which is very surprisng to me. Maybe the Eton needs some kind of adjustment. User input of E1 owners who have the same "issue" are kindly requested to drop a comment or an ideda for improvement.
First noise reduction in the video after a few seconds was achieved by switching filter bandwith from 4 to 2,3 kHz.

I've had a ICF-2010 since 1988 and it's still working!
Have owned a Sony ICF-2010 for 21 years-one dam fine SW receiver.
Looks like there is a radio coming built along the lines of the Eton E1 I saw it on Universal Radio.
The audio on the Eton sounds more warm and natural, the Sony sounds harsher and clipped. I've owned 2001, 2001D and 7600D sets over the years and they were all excellent receivers.
I have both receivers and there are differences, the Eton has a larger speaker with a different audio amp. Also has more bandwidths to choose. With mine the differences are not as dramatic. Good job on the SONY back light LED!
This video is very interesting for me who am E1 user.
Surely E1 is felt noisy a little. This seems to be common to a recent digital receiver.
In the case of Sony, the characteristic of the audio circuit may prevent from being noisy?
In the case of E1, I think that it improved by utilizing a pass band tune.
However, I think that the fundamental sound quality is excellent in Sony which is also an audio maker.
Thanks for posting! Interesting comparison. These are two high performance portable shortwave radio receivers. The antennas could have been reoriented, also changing bandwidth could help improve signal reception. I've been into radio since childhood which motivated me to pursue a career in electronics technology.
I have both radios. The Eton 1 allows you to choose the AGC mode so audio will not be so compressed and more natural. The 2010/2001D has great audio, but when using good phones because its loudspeaker is very limited.
Sony seems to be stronger in sensitivity and the sound is better or closer to one's ears. So the sound quality is better on Sony in SSB and not as noisy as on Eton.
Friend, I have a radio of this.
I ask you how to make it more noticeable to the Middle Waves of this radius.?
Is there any arrangement to improve this?

Both are nice Radios
Interesting comparison ! I love the SSB sound of sony but this receiver has no analog SSB steps (no fine tuning on SSB).
Congratulations on the radio.
I love this Sony ICF-2010 radio, I have one
I'm always listening to broadcasters on it.

The Sony icf 2010 is still the best...I had one back in the day...I do have the icf 2003 and the icf 7600
Yes, there has never been a better radio on the market
A help
Friends my Sony ICF-2010, there appeared a problem.
I need to call and charge 3 times for it to work.
But only FM, Air and AM does not only tune in.
Someone in the group already had this
defect in your Sony?
I've already looked into batteries and support connectors, flat cabol power supplies.
The display module already tested is ok.
Does anybody know of any tips to help which component is faulty.
I would appreciate any tips.
Thank you
Sony is a great radio, very complicated to fix though. Eton is expensive these days.
Who is the Best radio, Eton E1 o Sony icf sw55?? gracias a todos
ANYBODY know where a battery door is for sale? mine is missing
Butter Bean - you can download a 3D printing file for the battery door on the Groups.io forum for the Sony ICF-2010. Then send the file to a service bureau like Shapeways.com or MakeXYZ.com (cheaper). I recommend SLA resin printing method for a higher quality and better fit.
Has to be the sony to my ears a better sound.👍
I will find out before long i have just ordered a 2001d👍🤗🐻
The Sony is definitely a better receiver, although the Eton E1 could have surpassed the Sony if the design was done correctly, ie..very poor shielding in crucial sections, drifts far away from zero beat, very unstable. It's a shame because when it finally settles down and stops drifting and you manage to keep it zero beated, it is a fantastic receiver.
sony icf 2001d is the best ever
Hello, how come your radio has such a bright display. Any new LED?
Hi, yes, I did install a bright green LED on it
Subjektiv finde ich die SSB-Wiedergabe des E1 angenehmer als die des ICF-2001D, da weicher und weniger hektisch bzw. verzerrt. Ich sehe da keinen Anlass zur Besorgnis bzw. für irgendwelche technischen Anpassungen. Ich vermute, dass die AGC bei den beiden Geräten unterschiedlich abgestimmt ist. Falls der E1 die Möglichkeit einer manuellen Verstärkungsregelung hat, würde ich evtl. mal damit experimentieren. Beim 2001D könnte sich das Ausprobieren des Reglers "AM RF Gain" an der rechten Schmalseite lohnen.
information ATIS for aircrafts
Wheres the airband button sir?
Jeff Slot that is the German version of the receiver, called ICF-2001D. It has no AIR button
tropenband actually sir i have this kind of radio with no airband and i wonder if this radio can also receive a volcom signals or its just for am/fm only? Thank you
Jeff Slot what is a volcom signal? The radio can do AM and LSB/USB on shortwave
Este mai bun Sony decât celălalt radio.
eton-the best portable ever
+ivan igor Pollick It's is a very good receiver but the ICF 2010 is still the best.
@@sparkie119 I agree the Sony is an amazing radio.
