I grew up with one of the mechanical (rolling film) Zenith "circle of sound" clocks with the curved radio dial. It had very good sound. I still have it. The clock was replaced once. At this point, all the lights have burned out, so I retired it from alarm clock use after about 30 years :-( I like that old radio a lot.

I found one of the digital versions at the dump a year or two ago. I used it as an office clock/radio, until there was a power failure one weekend that ate up the backup battery. The radio insisted on making a buzzing/whistling sound when turned off, after I replaced the battery and plugged it in again. I took it back to the dump (which, fortunately has a very generous return policy).
