(5 out of 5)An excellent boombox!!
This boombox is absolutely terrific! It has excellent sound, and it has it all, a radio, CD player and a tape player. It is excellent. It has a compact size, so you can take it absolutely anywhere. Once, I took it in the car with all of my CDs, and me and my friends turned it up so loud it was at it's limit, and nothing happened to it, it just kept playing and playing. I spend hours listening to music on this. I also like the cloth speaker covers. I love this and if you buy it, I think you will too!
(3 out of 5)Excellent sound, but bad radio reception
This box has the best sound I could find for it's size. It only has 2 disadvantages: the tuner doesn't receive signals well and you can't change the order of the cd tracks (i.e. no random or programmable buttons). I live in the northern part of San Francisco and the radio is unable to receive stations 20 miles away clearly (like 105.3). Strangely enough, I get better reception when I remove the antenna. Also, rotating the boombox seems to help.
(5 out of 5)What else would you expect fron JVC?
Good solid quality and excellent sound. The controls are all laid out nicely and easy to operate. No gimmicks here. Very nice appearance. Mine gets excellent radio reception. Some improvements I think would be volume control on remote, auto reverse, and a clock.
