Boombox Radio Cassette Player Recorder, AM/FM -SW1/SW2 Radio, Wireless Streaming, USB/Micro SD Slots, Aux in, Headphone Jack, Convert Cassettes to USB/SD, Classic 80s Style Retro, Silver

I haven't added video because I think the ones already up are quite accurate. So if that looks good to you for the price then go right ahead. Once I got the unit I put an old Stevie Wonder cassette from 1980 I bought at a charity shop a couple years ago but never played. Everything sounded great - similar to a classic Sanyo or Technics unit from those days. The radio is 100% legit just like a unit from 1982. If you like listening to games on the radio then this will work much better than a clock radio. Heard some hip hop on a college radio station on the FM dial sounded crystal clear perfect stereo. Also has all the blue tooth functions and USB so you can easily plug a CD-R player in to listen to CDs. I put 4 D batteries in for the old school appeal and it fired up like Back To The Future. Love this thing. Was going to buy the silver one but I decided someone else should have it for a holiday gift. maybe next year I'll get an upgraded model! EDIT: HAD IT FOR A MONTH NOW NO ISSUES 4 Ds still pumping tunes getting the game nice also bluetooth connection is very strong and in stereo. Great sound. Tape deck is fine too. I don't digitize old tapes can't review that. But I didn't want that - honestly if you have super rare live cassette tapes that need to be digitized because of sentimental value don't get this, just go to a local audio dealer they can help you in fine style. That old New Edition mixtape from 1983 you want to play? guaranteed Amazon music can hook you up with a nice 70s or 80s mix if you ask nice

This boombox made my day. It’s not heavy and the sound quality is great. I love that you have the option to use a plug or put in batteries for on the go. Highly recommend this product. Picks up radio stations easily too.

The sound QUALITY is ‘just ok’ but I have way better equipment for picking up subtle notes on my favorite jazz records. This is not for that. THIS DAMN THING IS FUU-UUN. It has every possible connection. The radio, a working CASSETTE PLAYER! You can also track through songs ON the box so you don’t have to find whoever’s Bluetooth is connected at the moment. It was the life of the party and will be for years to come. Definitely a must have if you are of an era where you had one of these as a kid.

If you listen to AM/MW radio this is the reproduction "box" You want. Better than average AM performance, and much better than the ION "Street Rocker"/"Crosley" clone of it. FM is as good as any DSP radio on a chip, though mono. Yes, it's a DSP with an analog dial. That is to say very good. The SW bands are average for this type of device..it works, and it's fun to play with, but it's not going to replace a "real" shortwave radio. And.. Tuning is a bit touchy as the tuning thumb-wheel is directly connected to the tuning cap, but it's not hard to get the hang of it. The tape deck is the same mechanism that's in almost everything today. Not the best, but it gets the job done. Yes, it has a stereo head and records and plays in stereo. If you're looking to record high quality tapes this is not the device for you, but I am sure that you already knew that. The chip recorder/player works just fine, and yes it is stereo. It records in 192Kbs WAV (yes, WAV) making it a much better recorder than others of it's ilk, though it's not the best voice recorder as there's one mike, and it's very much your average mic..I'm sure that you weren't expecting this to be a field recorder anyway. It scans though a track when holding down the << or >> keys, and it remembers where you where in a track when you shut it off or went into another function instead of starting back up at the beginning of the file. The sound quality is quite good for something that only runs on 4 D cells. It won't blast the whole block, but it's quite respectable for what it is. Yes, THE TWEETERS ARE FAKE, nut that's no big deal as you really don't need them with 4" speakers anyway. If anything I'd say that they would be too much. Oddly enough the bass knob actually is a bass control and not a treble control disguised as a "tone" knob. The VU meter (flashing lights) isn't spot on nor does it show the left and right levels interdependently, but it is a sort of real VU meter, thus does not change with the volume control. It will and does give you a good enough idea of the level so you can adjust the volume on whatever you are feeding into the aux jack to optimize recording...a major plus. Do a couple of recordings to test the meter, and you get the hang of it quickly. On mine overload is the last LED the first green (yes, they got it backwards) seems to be just under 0dB/100%. You mileage may very. They actually got this one right...for what it is.

I wanted to digitize cassette tapes. This product does that but it's not very good at it. First you pretty much have to digitize to a USB thumb drive. The radio will not send the digitized music across a USB cable directly to a PC. Second, you have to time the pressing of buttons just right. You have to insert the thumb drive and then start playing the tape and only then does the USB digitize button become activated so you press immediately. If you press before the button is activated, you get no recording. If the button is not activated until after your tape has played a few bars, you may just have to accept losing the beginning of the song. Third, the tape drive appears to be weak and is certainly a bit noisy. I made a number of digitized songs that had several minutes of half-speed recording. I tested the tapes on another tape player and they played fine. Fourth, the volume of your digitized recording is set by the volume at which you play the tape. To get a decent digitized recording, I had to play the tapes at a really loud volume which could be heard throughout the house. I set up the tape player in the basement bathroom and muffled the sound of the player with towels and blankets. But I had to give up the bathroom and now anywhere else I do this, I'll have a problem with the sound permeating the house. So, yes, I can apparently digitize cassette tapes but it's difficult to get a good recording and it's a terrible pain in the ass. It took me more than 30 days to figure this out, so I am pretty screwed. My research suggests the entire class of tape players that claim to digitize cassettes are no better. Good luck.

Me encanto es totalmente como yo lo esperaba y de muy buena calidad tengo muchos cassette y lo tenia guardado, porque no tenia a donde escucharlo ahora con este nuevo radio estoy muy contento asi que lo reconmiendo, para los amantes de los cassatte.

I really like the fact that I can play cassettes on this. I hated to get rid of them and now I won't have to. I really wish this boom box had better bass, but I can't take away a star for that, because it still has nice sound. I just miss the bass that the retro boom boxes had. I don't use the short wave radio but I use the Bluetooth feature a lot. This was a good purchase and I would purchase this item again.

This boom nox looks cool and retro, and my daughter loved "the vibe". The radio and cassette player work well, but one of the main reasons she wanted it was to record mix tapes. The Bluetooth feature would enable her to record her favorite tunes from Spotify and on line playlists. However, as others have said truthfully, the recording quality is terrible. Really, with all our technology we can't do better than 1985?? The recording quality is way worse than 1985 - barely audible through the static. If that's what you want this boombox for, look elsewhere. Great idea, poor performance.
