4.0 out of 5 stars Good MP3/CD/Radio for the price
Hey this isn't a high def player, but for $70 bucks, it works very well. Remote is handy too. Sound is good, but there are not bass controls. You are limited to the jazz/rock/classical presets. And max volume is rather low.

I'd say for the price, its a good deal.

2.0 out of 5 stars No "boom" in this box
I bought this on a friday and returned it a few days later. Very nice to look and and alot of good features like the MP3 capability, but extremely poor audio makes for a big disappointment. Despite the claims of "Deep, rich bass" made by the manufacturer, the unit has a low volume that maxes out at 29. The extra bass button and jazz, classic, and rock settings make...

2.0 out of 5 stars No "boom" in this box, January 28, 2005
This review is from: JVC RCEX30 Portable AM / FM / MP3 / CD / Cassette Player with Remote (Black) (Electronics)
I bought this on a friday and returned it a few days later. Very nice to look and and alot of good features like the MP3 capability, but extremely poor audio makes for a big disappointment. Despite the claims of "Deep, rich bass" made by the manufacturer, the unit has a low volume that maxes out at 29. The extra bass button and jazz, classic, and rock settings make very little difference in the sound. It's definitely meant to be kept indoors inside a quiet room because I seriously doubt it could be heard outdoors, or in a noisy environment. This would be a good deal if JVC had installed better sound capabilities.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Dual Cassette., February 13, 2005
This review is from: JVC RCEX30 Portable AM / FM / MP3 / CD / Cassette Player with Remote (Black) (Electronics)
Note to those who are expecting a dual cassette unit, as this boombox is described in its listing--this has a single cassette only. The sound quality for CDs is somewhat acceptable (for a small boombox) at medium to higher volumes, but it is annoyingly "tinny" at lower volumes. On the other hand, it does offer lots of MP3 features (not tried by me).

I was looking for a boombox for my son for Christmas, and ran onto this one. It was around the same price as others that didn't have MP3 capabilities, so I gave it a shot. I was very pleased whenever I received it. It is a very impressive looking boombox and sounds great.

1.0 out of 5 stars A true piece of junk, January 28, 2005
This review is from: JVC RCEX30 Portable AM / FM / MP3 / CD / Cassette Player with Remote (Black) (Electronics)
I bought this product on a Friday and returned it the following Tuesday. It was one of the biggest disappointments I ever wasted my money on. The size, weight, and cute little round shape are the only good things about it. The quality of the audio was terrible. Very unbalanced, even when you play CD's. And when you turn the volume up higher, you get more static than music. The display was faulty as well; letters missing. I was shocked that a top name like SONY would distribute such a crappy product. Maybe I just got a dud, but I would highly recommend that anyone looking for a boombox with these features in this price range look at the Sony CFD-F10 instead. It's a much better buy for $10 more.
