Pros & Cons
Pros
I have a feeling, however, that this one will probably outlive me. Purchased from amazon and shipped from n. It is quite amazing to know that these cassette players and dvd players are still available to the general public. Dancers still use these ele... Read More
Stereo fm reception is more sensitive than mono. It comes with a replaceable cord, so if you either damage it or lose it, just get a new one at radioshack.
This is a good boombox for a good price. It is easily portable and manageable. It's a compact size, which was what i needed due to the size of my child's nursery.
Cons
Intermittently it refuses to play ordinary music cd's. This is a kid's toy that not even worthy of being used by an adolescent.
The fm receiver is very poor. Most of the stations, even the fm, were filled with static. I have to agree with the other reviewers that this is the worse radio reception ever.
Mega bass is a joke and is hardly discernable. There are no treble/bass controls, just a mega bass button that doesn't make much difference. Has a headphone jack but no other output ports.
Highlights
Quality
But i still do recommend to others about this product.
I learned many things about quality and product makers.
The quality isn't the greatest but i didn't want to put a lot of money into one.
I like this player, but i dont' think the sound quality is too good.
Price
Is not outstanding, but a good buy at this price.
I bought it for the tape player which is good for the price i paid.
The price posted seems to be very expensive.
I could understand a slight price hike for inflation but this is definitely not worth more than a 100 no matter how good it is.
Packaging/appearance
A good use would be on a desk, a medium-sized room, or in the kitchen/garage.
Competitiveness
We use this unit for a water arobics class.
It deserves its five stars because the other doesn't deserve its stars, and because it will not disappoint for the cost.
