    Sony CFDS70-BLK CD/MP3 Cassette Boombox Home Audio Radio, Black, with Aux Cable

    • My main purpose for this was a a portable cd player,to feed other devices, so the lo-fi speakers aren't a problem for me
    • Other brands that are cheaper tend to have very poor CD players that don't last.
    • This player worked great till today 9/07/18 the radio still works the tape player still works but the CD player stopped and that is what we bought it for.
    • Excellent CD player and service

    • I have had many Sony products over the years, including a Sony portable radio/CD player that sounds great & is still going strong after more than a decade

    • Overall I am pretty disappointed, I would expect this kind of sound from some cheap no name brand CD player, but not from a Sony
    • My portable CD player and $20 headphones sound much better and clearer
    • I still have a few cassette tapes around, but I was mostly looking for a compact CD player/radio to put at my bedside
    • Previously I had bought a couple of the cheaper tape players currently on the market; they variously played back too slowly, "ate" and destroyed the tapes, or just stopped working after playing back only a handful of tapes.
    • I understand this is not a very expensive player, and it’s pretty darn portable, but if you want decent sound, look elsewhere

    • The radio was fine but I bought it for the portable CD player.

    • This is a fine little CD player to play music for our grandchildren which is all we wanted
    • I've made tapes from both line input as well as the CD player (I have no intention of recording radio)
    • and I was looking for a portable tape player with good quality
    • I can recommend this player, but do not expect anything awesome out of it.

    • Great little player
    • I needed a portable cd player and I am quite happy with it
    • Get a better player

    • Nice sound for a compact CD player.
    • Nice portable CD player
    • If my daughter proves to be serious regarding tape collecting and recording then I'll find better equipment but until then, this player should serve to satisfy the novelty of playing cassettes to a curious millennial.
    • I love this radio cassette CD player.
    • I have tried to buy a nice CD player so my grandson can listen to music to put him to sleep
    • This is the perfect music player for a music class in the park.

    • This is an inexpensive multi-use player easy to set up for my relative with poor vision
    • I like the size of the boom box and its radio and CD player.
    • Though we haven't yet used the CD player, the FM radio works good and cassette player is GREAT to listen to books
    • But now, after 2 1/2 months, the player has constant knocking and is useless as a player.
    • Sound is not the best quality but is quite sufficient for a portable player.
