Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Share your favorite music with friends everywhere you go with the RCA RCD152 boombox. Equipped with a front-loading CD player, a digital AM/FM tuner, and a six-key cassette player and recorder, the boombox is the perfect audio accessory for backyard barbecues and basement rec rooms. Operation is straightforward, with the CD player supporting CD, CD-R, and CD-RW playback and offering such features as 20-track programming, repeat play (one or all tracks), and skip forward/reverse. The single-deck cassette recorder, meanwhile, plays back your favorite '80s and '90s cassettes while also recording from the CD player or radio, with an Auto Level Control (ALC) option that helps deliver consistent, low-distortion recordings every time. And should you want to catch the ballgame or listen to NPR, simply turn to the digital AM/FM tuner, which offers 20 presets for quick station tuning. Other details include separate enclosed left and right speaker boxes with tuned bass reflex ports, four EQ presets (rock, pop, jazz, and classical) that let you optimize the sound tones according to your taste, a dynamic digital bass boost that creates a deeper, richer sound, a digital volume control, and a digital remote.

The RCD152 measures 15.04 by 6.81 by 10.24 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works great but has some flaws, August 4, 2005

This review is from: RCA RCD152 Portable CD Boombox with AM/FM Tuner and Cassette Deck (Electronics)

This boombox is overal excellent. However it has some flaws.

#1-Cant record AM broadcasts without interference

I an record FM just fine, but every AM broadcast has a annoying hiss when I record. This is not good and I wish the problem be fixed in a future upgraded RCA model.

#2-Digital volume control has to be on in order to record

With analog radio tuner and volume control boomboxes I could dub a CD to tape without the volume blasting. With this boombox this cannot be done. The volume must always be blasting if one needs to record.

#3- Tape deck does not auto switch to the next side

This is annoying. But then again few boomboxes do this these days.

Overall a great boombox if all you will use it for is CD/tape playing and listening/recording FM. Listening to AM broadcasts works great, but the recording is another matter.

I bought this as an inexpensive CD player for my son and was very impressed. It's attractive, light weight and puts out a good sound. In fact, I ended up getting another for my mother as a Christmas gift.

I am greatly pleased with the performance of all RCA products, this one in no exception. This is a great product for the money and Amazon price was cheaper than that of Walmart.
