I was excited when this beautiful piece of equipment arrived...meticulously packed and delivered in record time! My excitement diminished however when I first listened to its output. Compared to my old boombox with the sticky cd drawers the sound was shallow and kind of annoying, both for music and speaking voices. I'm not sure what the bass booster is all about - I didn't hear much bass. In the end I used my old unreliable player with the better sound. Now...of course I'm being very picky. I'm a musician and now realize that if I had wanted really good sound quality I should have purchased a look-alike model for $250. For its $50 pricetag this is probably still quite a nice package.
PORTABLE CD/RADIO/CASSETTE PLAYER (COBY) May 6, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
THIS PLAYS VERY WELL. I LOVE IT. I BOUGHT AN OPTIONAL EARPLUG FOR PLAYING - AS YOU KNOW IT MAKES THE SOUND EVEN NICER! (IF THAT'S POSSIBLE.) IT'S A BIT BIG BUT I GAVE IT A SHELF OF ITS OWN IN MY BOOKCASE AND IT DOES QUITE NICELY. EVERYTHING IMAGINABLE IS INCLUDED. TAKE A CHANCE ON THIS ONE, ANYTIME.
Way too big and heavy January 11, 2007 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
For what I needed, too large. Unfortunately, size was not in discription. They offered a return for credit on another item, however, I paid 13.75 shipping, will pay that much back & new shipping is 9.75. Plus the smaller unit is 10.00 more.
Good Buy November 5, 2006 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
Unit boasts large speakers. The sound is above average, although there isn't much bass. A traditional analog (nondigital) tuner makes it easier to change stations or to scan stations quickly. One drawback is that the unit does not play MP3 files burned to a CD. Contains a built-in microphone for tape, which is a virtual rarity these days. The draw of the unit is it's crystal clear sound, although I would prefer just a bit more bass.
Great Product! August 14, 2006 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I highly recommend anyone try this radio/cd/cassette player. I used it for a family reunion where there was no electricity. The player runs on electricity or batteries and the sound, using batteries, is fantastic. You can also hook up a microphone. It was definitely a good purchase.
