Product Description:
Philips AZ2025 is a CD Sound machine with two-way Bass reflex speaker system that provides higher musical clarity and enhanced stereo sound quality. The Incredible surround feature is unique to Philips, and it creates the illusion of the speakers being much further apart than they actually are, resulting in an enhanced, room-filled stereo effect. The Ultra High Clarity offers lucid, crisp sound at the high end of the frequency range when switched on. Digital DBB+ is an active, electronic calibration that allows full-bodied, powerful bass boost at all volume levels. The digital tuner with 30 presets provides fast, accurate tuning to your favorite stations. You can store up to 30 FM and MW stations in memory for fast, easy access. The AZ2025 also features Jog control, 14-key remote control, and 2 Color LCD with Demo mode.

A+++ sound quality.......2005-08-18

I bought this unit used, and except for some minor blemishes it was in very good condition. I like only good sounding audio, so it means somthing for me to leave a great review. This unit has awsome bass and is very powerful. If you can find this unit and your looking for great sound, GET THIS!!

Awesome Box--Why discontinued?!.......2003-06-21

I punished my boombox for well over two years, strapping it in the right seat of my city tractor--very rough ride--and also in my linehaul rig running twelve hour days dragging triples up and down Interstate 5. I think I finally wasted one channel of the amp, or perhaps broke a connection. I've lost one speaker. I constantly ran the volume wide open with the bass boost on it's second setting with no distortion, so I wasn't worried about frying the amp, but perhaps I did anyhow? I was very pleased with the sound quality. Sony and other manufacturers in the same pricepoint market couldn't hold a candle to my Phillips. Now I've got to find a new model. . .

4 1/2 stars so far.......2002-07-09

I got my Phillips Boombox CD/radio/cassette player yesterday ahead of the schedule and in good condition. Thank you Amazon.com. I had narrowed my choice down to 2 or 3 choices and hesitated because of the negative reviews about a broken lid; cheesy remote, etc. but I decided to order this one mainly because of the one comment made about good radio reception which was not given in relation to other CD/Radio boomboxes. I do not get good radio reception where I live and I have never been able to get King 98.1 classical station very good at all. Now I get quite good reception and am very happy about that and the great sound of radio and CD. I have not played a cassette but ear phones work great too. I hope it will prove to be very reliable as I love it. The little toy like remote has STOP on it but very strange not to be able to turn on and off the whole system via remote. I am close to it when I use it so visuals and distance of remote no problem.

Kudos to Phillips for the great radio reception both FM and AM and quality of sound. I value clear sound over just volume but volume is great too. I also like the unique and (not all black) looks. Today is day 1 of use and hope to have many more without a problem.

Fun While It Lasted.......2002-07-05

Bought this in November as a Christmas present for my 11 year old, so it was opened on Dec. 25. On July 4 (6 months and 9 days later), the CD player failed to detect that a disk was installed. It didn't take long to see that the laser lens inside the player was missing... it had popped out. I found it loose inside the bottom of the speaker case. I could not reinstall it, and it appears that the retention of that lens is simple friction against some side posts. Or possibly, another retention piece is missing and I can't find it. Compared to another brand CD player, the lens mounting is cheap, lightweight, and probably built by the lowest biding subcontractor for Phillips. In any case, it couldn't hold up to an 11 year old playing it outside with friends. So, if you are bedridden or similarly isolated such that this boom box will sit on a sturdy table and not be moved much, this is the unit for you. I gave it 2 stars instead of of only one because it does sound good when it plays.

Good, but not Great.......2002-06-27

I have owned this unit for about 1 year, and over the 1st year i have had no major problems. There are some minor quirks with this boom box though, for example, the backlighting is very weak, if you are anywhere other than right in front of it, and the bass boost,surround, and high quality buttons make the song skip for a second, thats pretty much it. The remote is not only cheesy (like stated above) but its weak too. It is overall a good buy for almost any music lover, execpt, boomboxes were originally built for easy manuverability with batteries, but have you seen how many batteries this thing takes!?! But no more than any other, but still.
