EmersonPortable CD Player Boombox with Cassette Player, Tape Recorder, AM/FM Radio, MP3 AUX Input, Detachable Speakers, AC/DC & Battery Operated – Stereo System for Home, Travel, Indoor & Outdoor Use

This boombox is very 1980s. No remote. Who cares. Sounds awesome. Fills a room with sound fine. I have tried about 4 stereos from Amazon in the past couple of months. All had this terrible software enhanced bass sound. Too muddled and deep. They produced a dark, murky sound. The sound of this device is clear, and crisp. It has the "Sony style" xbass button. Sounds full, but not overbearing. An excellent choice for classical/jazz music. The true size is not listed in the description. It is approximately 9in high, 17in long, and 7in deep. It's a shelf stereo with a handle. Attached or detached speakers. All plastic, but not cheesy. Cassettes play perfect too. Auto shut off. Stores 20 AM or FM stations. You won't miss the remote. You will be in the same room with it anyway. For the oldsters out there, its functionality will be very reminiscent, and simple. All very 80s and easy. It actually could be an Emerson product from the 1980s. All of its functions were available circa 1987. Nostalgic, cute, and sounds very good at the price point. Plays tapes, CDs, and radio. No Bluetooth, but aux in for phone or MP3. This device is definitely for a retro-loving individual. Good choice for a smaller device that definitely does the job. Enjoy!!

I am enjoying using this since my other cassette player/recorders no longer can be used. The radio reception is wonderfully clear as is the Cd player with no scratched sounds. This item has been exactly what I have needed for recording and playing the cassette tapes my interests require.

The unit is really nice. CD's sound great, the radio reception is good for the area we are in. Rural. The volume is okay but I'm used to a little louder and more bass. I would recommend this, for sure, and would buy it again.

I have a hard time with reception since wer're below the bluffs of the Mississippi River. I wanted this radio for my garage/shop for the CD player it has. But suprisingly, this radio gets better reception than the 2 Crane super radios we have. I can pull a couple of stations that the Crane radios won't even come close to picking up. Sound quality is good and way more volume than I need in my 32x40 shop. The weight of the radio seems a bit flimsy, but what the heck, as long as it works well. I'm very satisfied with this product.

It was delivered 12/9/24 - I purchased this for a Christmas present to myself to listen to cd’s & cassettes. 1/25 I attempted to plug in a cassette tape. I discovered there’s something wrong with the door. It wouldn't open and was kind of off ‘track’ with the door. Finally got a cassette in it and then it wouldn’t play because of the door being ‘jacked up’. I am soooo disappointed in this “stereo”! The cd player is okay. I’ve been using the stereo to plug in my ipad (using the aux connection) so I can at least listen to pandora. Don’t waste your money on this product. UPDATE 3/6/25: Turned on the aux to listen to Pandora (since that’s the only thing I can really listen to for long period of time) - guess what? The plug the right speaker goes into on the back is bad! So only sound is through the left speaker! I am so sick of this poor quality “boom box stereo!

I wish I could go back in time in the 80's to buy a boombox the way they used to be designed.Heck, I would be happy to stop by in the 90's. Boom boxes were pretty decent then.Cons:pretty small relative to the price:18 inches a 8.5 inches tall (excluding top handle) x 8 inches.Pros:sound quality is decent. This is why I didn't return this item.

We ordered this radio and when it showed up it would not tune in any radio stations, I returned it and requested a replacement which came very fast. This radio/cd/tape player works fantastic.

Had a small cd player that stopped playing cds, so I bought another one, couldn’t read the cd, Bought another one, same story. Lots of defective c d players out there! Bought this one, even though I don’t have cassettes, etc Arrived today, set it up and it knocked my socks off. Filled the room with music by my favorite jazz pianist, Beegie Adair. Oh gosh, beautiful! Haven’t heard my favorite music in so long! Sure if you have unlimited funds you can find a better one, but at this price, it’s a great value.
