Amazon.com Product Description

Whether you're after portability or simply a stereo system with a small footprint, Panasonic's RX-D29 CD/radio/cassette boombox is a worthy candidate. The system pumps 6 watts per channel through a pair of 2-way speakers, ,each of which uses a 3-inch woofer and a .5-inch tweeter. Enjoy your favorite tunes without interruption--you can play a CD at random, in a specified order, or repeat one song or the whole disc.

You can play your homemade MP3 music compilations, too. This unit is compatible with multi-session MP3 discs, but if there are a lot of sessions it will take more time for playback to commence. Albums and tracks will play in alphanumeric order, so number your files and folders to ensure a desired playback sequence. The boombox does not support MP3 song and album title display. If a CD-ROM-format CD contains MP3 and files other than MP3, only the MP3 files will be playable.

CD synchro start helps you record custom music mixes on cassette, and auto-scan tuning sets your presets for you (12 FM, 12 AM) when you power up for the first time. The unit even comes with a handy remote control to simplify operation from the comfort of your favorite listening position (remote requires 2 AA batteries, not included).

Full auto stop conserves batteries and cassette wear by shutting down when a tape reaches its end (or beginning, if you've just rewound), while CD cue and review controls help you zero in on just the section you're looking for.

Choose from 4 preset equalizer settings to tailor the sound to your preference (XBS bass boost, vocal, clear, or soft). A Sound Virtualizer circuit simulates surround sound from the boombox's 2 speakers. For MP3 listening, Panasonic's special Re-Master circuit reproduces the treble lost during MP3 compression, enabling reproduction close to the original.

The RX-D29 runs on either AC power (cord included) or 6 C-cell batteries (not included). Power backup using 3 AA batteries (not included) saves the current time, timer settings, and radio stations that you have set. If memory batteries are not used, memory items are erased if the unit loses power.

A happy customer.......2007-06-18

Bought this after reading the reviews and Amzno delivered it real fast. Happy with the sound quality, basic operations, and light weight. A real rich set of features makes this a Good Buy.

Attractive, versatile boombox with good sound.......2007-06-13

I was looking for a basic boombox and after one disastrous model from a no-name maker, I decided to get this Panasonic. I've been quite happy from Day One.

First of all, this boombox has pretty good sound for a small audio machine. It also has four preset equalizer settings that's simple to use and does make a difference to sound output. The remote control also has a "sound virtualizer" button that allows you to generate 3D effects for the sound output.

One thing that makes me happy is the CD player on this boombox can play MP3 files (but you can't shuffle MP3 files as you can shuffle CD tracks). And like all Panasonic CD players, it's very reliable and doesn't even skip when you walk and play. The CD player also spins very fast and is quiet, which is good compared to cheap boomboxes.

The cassette player, which I use occasionally, is great, too. One thing to note is it only accepts normal-type audio tapes, not one of those metal or oxide tapes. On the other hand, you can record to tape CD music or broadcast - the old-fashioned way which sure brings back lots of fond memories of the Walkman days.

The buttons are clearly laid out and easy to operate. Programming CD tracks in the orders you like is very easy. The radio tuning function works well, too. A built-in, extendable antenna makes it easy to find good FM broadcast. A built-in, foldable handle makes this lightweight boombox easy to carry.

The LCD is smallish but it comes on backlit when the boombox is powered-on. There's a built-in clock; you can press the Display button on the remote to activate the clock display anytime. When powered off, the clock shows but is not backlit.

Overall, this boombox feels solid and works well. It costs more than many other boomboxes but it does give you much more confidence. I hope to be using it for a long time to come.

It sounds GREAT!.......2007-06-09

I would have given it five stars but for one reason. The most annoying. The plug in the back falls out if you just turn the Boombox left or right. I don't know if this is just a bad wire or what! The wire is in now but if I move the boombox slightly, out it goes. The sound is just wonderful. Seller, I would appreciate a new wire! Come on Panasonic!

excellent sound and features.......2007-05-20

This is one of the few boomboxes left in the market with which you can enjoy classical music. It produces a sound that has richness, but also clarity, particularly when you compare it with the muddy sound that comes from almost every other boombox.

It has equalizer modes that make it perfectly fine to listen to rock, rap, or anything else too, and the features and controls are very convenient. The design is clean and nice, but will not appeal those who like their boomboxes flashy, 3 feet long, and with fins :-)

No shuffle for MP3 CDs???.......2007-05-04

This player works, and has decent sound quality... but it has issues.

It doesn't support shuffle for MP3 CDs, and many features (such as regular CD shuffle) are inaccessible without the remote control.

I understand why it might be a little difficult to support shuffle for MP3 CDs, but that doesn't make the feature any less important to me.

Compact, attractive and cheap - but poor sound quality.......2007-06-29

This little boombox has a lot going for it. It has a snappy, cute design, very compact size and the price is remarkably low. However, the downside is that it just doesn't put out very good sound. There is no bass to speak off, the midranges are hollow and tinny and most of the high end sounds are cut off. I would compare the sound quality to that of cheap PC speakers. There is no electronic sound processing (i.e. "Pop", "Rock" and "Classical" settings) either.

That said, the jWin does pack a lot of funtionality into it's modest size. It plays CDs, cassettes and has an AM/FM tuner. Reportedly you can record CD to cassette, or radio broadcast to cassette, but this is not something I have tested. The presence of a condenser mic implies voice recording, but again I didn't test this.

The AM/FM tuner is nice - it's a manual tuning dial, which I always appreciate over electronic "snap-to" tuners. There is a telescoping antenna which did a fair job of picking up FM stations from the 20 mile-distant metro area. Rather than electronic tuning, radio frequencies are printed on a wheel which is viewed through a small magnifying bubble. This bubble makes the small print larger, but narrows the viewing angle to straight on only.

The jWin runs on 6 C cell batteries, which is better than the 10-D cells another unit I considered.

The main task of this boombox will be to play audiobooks on CD and cassette for an 8-year old child. I am not certain how well it will perform at this task. I would certainly not use it to play music because of its inferior sound quality.

The jWin does have headphone jacks, and it may well be that it's cheap speakers are less of an issue with a good set of headphones plugged in.

In the end, a boombox is a portable stereo used fill a room with sound. For that reason, I had to disregard the low price and nice design and give it three stars for poor sound.

Just what I ordered.......2007-06-16

Very light weight and easy to work. Great sound.

Good System.......2007-01-26

I really like this unit. It is user freindly, compact, and durable (i mainly use it in my shop with unfavorable temperatures & humidity), however, it works great and keeps on working. About the only thing it will not do, is allow the user to adjust the sound characteristics (i.e. bass, treble, etc.), but the sound is still good, even when loud, despite not having any sound adjustment options, other than volume.

Emerson Radio/ CD player.......2007-07-01

I have had two of these. The first I returned because it would stop playing in the middle of a cd. The second one may or may not play depending upon whatever it seems to feel like doing. I was very disappointed in this product.

GREAT little player.......2007-06-22

I give it 4 stars because i've only had it a month.
I use this in a very portable way, to play music as i travel to provide chair massage.
The player is lightweight and very slim in profile, making it very portable.
The sound is really great, especially from just one speaker.
The components and all the buttons and doors are solid and seem very well-made.
The radio transmission is great, especially in my house (and basement especially which has transmission issues).
A great player, and economical. If it lasts, it will be an awesome find!

Good for the money.......2007-06-15

We use this unit for the CD player only. Haven't had any problems in 6 months. We haven't quite figured out how to "loop" the playing yet, if that is possible. A little bit heavy but good sound. Would recommend since there aren't too many units like this that do not require headsets for portable listening.

Emerson CD Player AM/FM Radio.......2007-06-12

Great when I plug it in but with batteries, it keeps shutting off.
What's up with this? I want to listen to CD's in the car.

CD's skip .......2007-05-22

I was quite disappointed with this product. I have owned other Emerson products in the past, and usually their products are of decent quality. The design and footprint were very nice, but the product didn't function as it should. I found that CD's (in good condition) will skip when the player has been playing for an extended period of time. Mine was playing steadily for about an hour or two when the CD's started skipping. I switched CD's twice, and the skipping just got worse.

Amazon.com Product Description

The CFD-ZW755 CD/radio cassette recorder sports a convenient handle so your tunes can go anywhere you do, whether you're blasting tunes for friends or listening in private through the supplied stereo headphones. The unit's CD player uses a one-bit digital-to-analog audio converter for pristine sound, and audio CD-R/CD-RW compatibility means the box will play your home-brewed music mixes as well as prerecorded CDs.

The CFD-ZW755 includes a digital AM/FM stereo tuner, too. Four electronic sound modes (rock/pop/jazz/vocal) let you tailor the sound for listening to various different types of music or in different environments, while Mega Bass sound enhances low-frequencies in any sound mode. Perfect for parties, the unit comes with Sony's Loop/Flash sound effects. Loop continuously repeat a few seconds of music, while Flash provides intermittent playback for a DJ-like stuttering effect.

With synchronized CD/cassette dubbing, CD playback commences just after cassette recording begins. The stereo record/playback cassette deck provides direct recording from either the tuner, the CD player, or another cassette. Other features include four-inch detachable speakers and 20-track CD programming. The unit runs on the supplied AC power cord or six D batteries.

The price, feature, and company is right!.......2007-06-22

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various recordings from the 60's and 70's. Since I have owned numerous (Including this one) Sony products over the years I don't think I am outside my realm.

I always have a need for music either reviewing, archiving, or pleasure. The Sony CFD-ZW755 grants the consumer many features without bloating the price tag.

While it is not going to take the place of the high end system in your music room with its versatility it will be a welcome companion in an office, a guest room, or in proximity of the kitchen. Batteries or electricity the option is yours.

The AM/FM tuner locks in the stations well without the drifts often associated with lesser models. There are settings to taylor the sound to your liking (Rock, Pop, Vocals).

The dual tape enables recording from tape to tape, CD to tape, or radio to tape. The CD portion of the unit is reliable when handled properly.

If you don't want to spend endless time researching a good unit, Sony is a name you can trust.

Enjoy the music and be well,
Craig Fenton
Author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent"

excellent sound, bad send.......2007-05-17

This was a gift for my husband, and he loves it. The sound is excellent. He hasn't tried any of the recording features yet, but I hear him playing music in his office a lot more now. My only distress in the transaction was coming home to find it had been delivered and was setting in the driveway near our side door. It was a huge box, clearly marked with a printed picture of the boombox that was inside of it. The tape on the box seemed original, but was weak and torn. I live in a suburb of Cleveland, and I feel very lucky that it was still sitting there. Ususally when I order things from Amazon, it comes in a box marked as Amazon.com, and not as the product that is inside the box.

It's OK.......2007-06-28

This thing has the WORST bass sound I've ever heard. Just zero low end. It's also bigger than it looks. I would never buy this for a primary stereo, but if - like me - you just want something to play in the garage while you're dinking around, it's good enough. It is a nice looking design and it seems to be made fairly well. Good radio reception too. But really, THE BASS SUCKS - and I'm not even the type to usually notice things like that.

Right for the price.......2007-06-07

This is a simple, no-frills boombox. The sound is fine for what it is. Think "car radio in a Ford Pinto", not "hi-fi sound system".

Not as good.......2007-05-06

The unit I purchased was not as well made, nor sounded as good as the older unit I had. That one went to my son.Thinking I'd get the same sort of performance. I'ts ok, but not as nice as the old one. By the way they where both JVC, and the same "almost" model.....Around the same price.

Misrepresnted.......2007-04-05

Bouth this item after reading the product description that it had 20 preset stations for the radio 10AM and 10FM.Imagine my suprise whne i recieved item opened it and found it to be a manual tuning knob instead of preset buttons.never would have purchased this itme had it been accurately describe.It is what it is a low priced bare essential boombox.And should be more accuraetly describe as that.took me 2 minutes t9o realize was a poor purchase boxed it up and returned it.

This was a Christmas gift for my father-in-law who, at 87, received his first CD's. He is not up on technology, but he learned to use it fast, and he plays his CD's every day.

Junk.......2007-01-11

On one the cassete deck stopped working and the other the cd isn't working.

At least the CD player works.......2007-01-09

The reason we bought it was for the tape recorder/player. Unfortunately that part doesn't function properly.

Only took two weeks to fall apart..........2007-03-25

I would not recommend this product to anyone. My son
received this cd player for his 10th birthday as a
replacement for an old one. Within two weeks the head-
phones quit working. The unit skips with the slightest
movement, making it no fun and unusable to my son. If
you can believe it, the old cd player is actually more
usuable than this almost brand new Coby cd player. : (

Amazon.com Product Description

Listen to your favorite CDs, MP3s, audiocassettes, and radio programs while away from home with the Coby MP-CD450 portable stereo system. A great fit for folks who want an affordable stereo for tailgaters or outdoor parties, the system is built around its top-loading CD player, which plays traditional audio CDs and CD-R/RWs along with MP3s recorded on CD. The device gives listeners access to more of their digital music library while also cutting down on CD cargo for road trips (the average CD-R holds 10 hours of compressed MP3 music). The CD player also boasts search and repeat (one or all) functions, along with a backlit LED display that details track and artist information.

To complement the CD player, Coby included both an auto-stop cassette deck and an analog AM/FM tuner. The deck's two-way recording (CD and radio) sounds particularly good thanks to the one-touch automatic level control, which ensures consistent results regardless of the source. Meanwhile, the AM/FM radio offers an alternative for folks who enjoy talk programming and DJ playlists.

The feature set concludes with a pair of 4-inch wide-range speakers (2 watts x 2), which produce a solid overall sound. Though not powerful, the speakers do the job, especially considering the system's affordable price. The MP-CD450 also includes a 3.5 mm headphone jack and a carrying handle, and runs on eight D-size batteries or AC power.

Coby MP3/CD/Cassette/Radio.......2007-05-01

This "boom box" does everything it claims to do. Functions, I would give 5 stars.

The only thing(s) that makes me question its quality is the knobs (volume & the radio tuner), they feel as if they are not connected well. But, I have not had any problems.

For an inexpensive MP3/CD/Cassette/Radio tuner, I recommend it.

CD motor doesn't last more than a week or two.......2006-11-08

Despite all warnings by previous reviewers, I went ahead and bought this CD player thinking that I'd have better luck. But, as with previous reviewers, the CD player motor broke within the first two weeks of use. After the first two weeks, it refused to play, constantly listing "Read" in its display. With some tinkering, I figured out that you could continue to play a CD if you "jump start" it yourself by: a) quickly spinning the CD manually, and b) closing the lid and pressing Play while the CD is still going. Apparently, the motor is just no good on cold starts after the first few weeks. In total, I've been able to play about 4 CDs on this before it broke.

I never used the tape feature, but the radio seems to work as well as any low-quality small radio would work. The appearance of the player is stylish, and it's a nice small size.

If, like me, you're looking to buy a cheap CD player, please heed the warnings of multiple reviewers. I disregarded, and ended up hitting the same issues as they did. Beware!

OK unit, but picky with mp3 discs.......2006-04-22

I have usually ben happy with the Coby products I've owned in the past, but this one is a disappointment. I wanted to get an inexpensive boom box for my girlfriend to put in the kitchen that would not only play standard CDs but also mp3 CDs and had a radio and cassette recorder as well. The radio and cassette sections seem to do about as well as you'd expect for a boom box selling for $39.95. And yes, it seems to play standard CDs well, although it seems to not play the last track of some of them well. However, mp3 CD playback is very iffy. I have made over a hundred mp3 CDs, and some it will play and others, for whatever reason, it will start reading, then sit there and act like it's having trouble reading, then quit. It also seems it won't read certain brands of CDs I've burned. I don't understand why this thing is so picky. Despite this, I'm keeping the unit since I bought an extended warranty with it and it mostly does fine with its other functions. But I can only play some of my MP3 CDs on it. If you want something that seems much less picky, although not absolutely perfect, and you want something cheap and simple, try the Jwin JXCD472. I got one of those and that one seems to work much much better.

worth the money.......2006-02-17

This unit does everything it is suposed to do.Also plays wma and mp3.It plays cd-r that my other boombox Sony cfd-250cp does not.I gave it 4 stars because of analog radio and 2 wats /cannel and no remote.I owned for over a year and still plays all my cd-rs with no exception mp3 and wma.

Un-disclosed Problem.......2006-01-28

The folks who made this system failed to advertise that there is a limit to how many songs the MP3 will play. I had a disc with over 200 songs on it, and the system will only repeat the first 100 songs at best. I wish I would have known this before I purchased it. Other than that problem, the sound is excellent. Radio reception is great, and the size works for its portability.
