Good "Value" product,

This review is from: JVC RCEX25S Portable AM / FM CD / Cassette Player with Remote (Silver) (Electronics)
OPENING NOTES:I bought this boombox for use in my apartment bedroom at school. I already owned a shelf system, that produced notably better sound, but that also took up too much space for a small room. What I was looking for in a boombox were compact size, high features for fairly low cost, and decent sound. PROS: - The remote is handy. - Attractive appearance. - Compact. - Digital AM/FM tuner. CONS: - Poor "Hyper Bass Sound" System. - Lacks manual bass/treble adjustment. REVIEW: I was quite pleased with this product's compact size and aesthetically pleasing appearance. I will note, because it's hard to tell from the provided product image, that the inlay color is a faux carbon fiber look (which is approximately a checkered black and gray). I will also note that contrary to the information under the product's "Technical data", it does NOT have a dual cassette deck - it is a SINGLE cassette deck. This wasn't a factor for me since I don't play cassette tapes, but it might be for some buyers. The antenna seems to work quite well - I haven't had to even put it up, and still get great reception of the handful of stations I listen to. The digital AM/FM tuning is great and is a MUST for anyone shopping for a boombox. The remote control is full-featured and convenient. The only thing it doesn't seem it would work for is the cassette deck. But I haven't tested that and, again, it isn't a factor for me since I don't play cassette tapes. If you do play or record cassette tapes, it does have a neat "Muting" function that would probably come in handy for you. (The Muting button works for the CD and radio also.) What is a bit disappointing about this boombox is the sound - it could be more robust. The HBS ("Hyper Bass Sound" System) does almost nothing - there is virtually no difference between listening with or without it turned on. Further, it would be nice if there was a manual bass/treble adjustment, whether analog or digital. Basically, the system just needs more bass. However, the EQ Presets are at least a step in the right direction. The display can also be toggled to show the time. SUMMARY: This is a very respectable boombox for the price. It boasts quality and high features, including digital AM/FM tuning and a remote. You can really only expect up to a certain level of sound quality from ANY boombox, because it is, after all, just a boombox and not a shelf or home entertainment system. That said, however, I still think that they could have gotten better, more robust sound from this system. If I could do it over again, I would have purchased the Panasonic RX-D27 Boombox (ASIN: B0002KU76U)instead. I have not heard one play, but looking at the technical data shows that it has more powerful speakers (5 watts per channel vs. 2 watts on the JVC); 2-way speakers, which would probably give better sound articulation; and virtual surround sound. Sadly I did not discover the Panasonic unit until after I had already ordered the JVC. Still, this is isn't a bad purchase - I think it's a pretty good deal for a boombox.

For the price, this is an excellent boombox. The display is backlit and easy to read. Remote control is relatively simple to use. Plays CD-Rs without a problem. Overall it is nice looking and not as ridiculous as some other boomboxes on the market. It does what I need it to do.

This is a very nicely designed product with a remote control included. It has a fairly small footprint compared to some of the other similar products. Includes all of the features like bass boost, settings for various types of music, as well as being able to use it with batteries or ac. I like it a lot.
