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.

What's in the Box

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars 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.

1 out of 5 stars 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!

2 out of 5 stars 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.

4 out of 5 stars 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.

3 out of 5 stars 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.
