DESCRIPTION:
Sharper Image is pleased to introduce their most complete Sound Soother ever, Sharper Image's beautiful new Sound Soother 20 with Sleep Timer. Its soothing sounds leave you feeling relaxed, clear-headed, rejuvenated. The soothing sounds are all-digital recordings of authentic natural environments, plus innovative soundscapes of "Wind Chimes," "Foghorns," "Roadside," and 17 others, projected with amazing fidelity through a high-quality omni-directional speaker.
Woody Allen-types may find the crickets of "Summer Night" harrowing but the drone of taxis on "City" streets comforting. Or a Nebraska farmer might dream along with "Dockside" sounds but wouldn't want to hear one more "Thunderstorm." Babies coo to "Heartbeat." Couples snuggle to a crackling "Fireside." Make your choice to mask out traffic noises, barking dogs, a snoring partner, a neighbor's stereo — and escape the noisy, hectic world.
The graceful design and beautifully simple controls are the first step toward creating a serene personal environment. Memory retains your last-selected sound upon start-up. The 60-minute sleep-timer, during the final five minutes of play, gently ramps down to total silence — avoiding any abrupt cessation that can disrupt sleep.
Features rotary volume-control and headphone jack. Measures 4 1/2" high and 5 3/4" across. Runs on 6 AA batteries (SM660, order separately), or plugs in using optional AC adapter (SM902, order separately). One-year warranty.
