Terrific Sounding Machine!

Mar 18, 2001 - By Amazon Customer

I can't believe how great the sound is from this boombox. It also includes digital tuning and the price isn't too bad either. I like the design and looks of this player too.

Excellent Product, Especially for the price

Mar 24, 2002 - By Alice Stamm (NY)

I've always felt Philips electronics are head and shoulders above the rest. I have a good stereo setup, components, but as an extra (or even as your main system if you don't have another setup), you can't imagine how fabulous the sound is that emanates from the AZ1560. I was blown away when I heard it at my brother's, who's a real music / equipment buff and only uses the best. I could swear it was coming from his regular stereo system. I believe the AZ1560 has recently been discontinued, but was able to get one of the last three units they had. I'm sure some of Philip's other boom boxes sound great, too, and I wouldn't hestitate to buy any Philips product. But, if you can get your hands on this model, it's the very best sound I've heard from a boom box and I've owned four. Packs an incredible punch for the buck!

I have been a musician all of my life. Grow up to the sounds of big band. Played in the Navy. This boombox has a big sound from a small source. Five stars for sure.

amazing sound -this from a sound freak!

Jun 3, 2002 - By Lee Williamson (Raleigh, NC USA)

I bought this [thing] at [a local retailer] for my art studio. I just wanted something cheap and simple. Little did I know that it would sound this good. Believe me, I'm a nut when it comes to having all the surround speakers, a powerfull receiver, etc. So I mean it when I say the sound is amazing with this unit. I thought the "surround mode" was a gimmick. I was wrong. The Philips sounds better than some of the nicer stereos I've owned. Ain't that a kick?

Great boombox, competive price

May 5, 2001 - By Amazon Customer

I listened to a dozen boomboxes and couldn't purchase one because I didn't like the sound. Then I heard this one and bought it within 5 minutes. The sound is clearly better than others in this price range. It is also easy to use. It would be nice to have a power button on the remote, but if I wanted another, I would buy this same model.
