JVC RCQN1 Compact Portable CD Boombox

JVC RCQN1 Compact Portable CD Boombox

Product Description
Amazon.com Review
In the RC-QN1 compact portable CD boombox, JVC fuses ease of use with good sound and particularly stylish appearance to deliver one of the best portable-music bargains around.

The RC-QN1 includes a CD player, cassette deck, and tuner that you can turn on with the touch of a button on the remote using JVC's Compu Play feature. For tonal variety, the unit offers three equalizer presets to choose from, not counting "flat" (no equalizer): Clear, Pop, and Beat. We preferred the Beat preset, even on classical music, as this setting offered the fullest bass response. Placing the RC-QN1 against a wall increased the bass, but keep in mind that this positioning can produce "boomy" or muddy sound depending on the player or speaker.

The RC-QN1's ergonomic design allows easy insertion and removal of CDs. The tuner conveniently determines its 15 FM and 15 AM memory settings through a brisk walk up the radio dial, pausing to record the strongest stations. Unfortunately, accessing those presets is not as convenient as you have to skip all the way to 15 just to get to the last station--even with the remote.

The RC-QN1 played louder than anticipated and without distortion or undue compression, rounding out our high opinion of its sound-to-dollar ratio.

Pros:

Plays well at high volume

Stylish appearance

Easy to load and remove CDs

Cons:

Tuner presets inconvenient to access

Product Description:
The JVC Compact Portable CD with cassette is compact enough to take anywhere. Tune into radio sounds with the digital tuner and 15 AM/15 FM station memory with auto preset. Power-bass reflex ducts get the most out low tones. A three-preset equalizer lets you tailor the sound to the musical style or room environment. Set the CD for repeat play or synchronize it with radio or cassette recording. Full auto-stop deck prevents stretches and tears in your tapes. Includes remote control and has headphone jacks.

Good Buy.......2000-01-18

After much research, I was convinced that I wanted to buy the Phillips AZ-2000 until I realized it had an analog tuner whereas the JVC had a digital one for a lesser price. I was pleased when I received my set to find that it was very fashionable, with it's cool blue look (better than the picture illustrates). The remote has all the feautures I could desire. My only disappointment is that it doesn't control the volume. The cool thing about the remote is that you don't need a direct line of sight to control the unit, you can point it just about anywhere and it'll still work. The JVC also has the added convenience of a sleep timer and it sounds better than most radios in it's class.

Very good quality for the price........1999-11-13

I was looking for a portable CD/tape player for a gift and at this price, I could afford to be generous. I was concerned about the white/blue/black casing, but when I opened the box, I thought the unit was quite attractive and much better looking than in the picture. I have a JVC boombox and expected this portable would have slow, smooth opening CD and tape doors and not the "pop" opening quality of other portables; I was not disappointed. There isn't much you can do on a portable without an equalizer, but the multiple sound settings (beat/pop/clear/flat) did improve the sound quality. The sound was adequate for a bedroom. The delivery was also excellent: I ordered this JVC boombox on Friday and it was delivered by Tuesday a.m. I would recommend this unit.

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS, I LOVE IT!!!!.......1999-10-23

I bought this boombox for my office, which is a cubicle and only partially closed in. The sound is SO CLEAR, that I can get a GREAT sound quality at a low volume, and it doesn't disturb anyone else in the office. The jazz, the classical, the hip-hop and the gospel music all sound fantastic!! I am very pleased with this product, I am going to purchase another one just like it for my home. And the price is even more fantastic!!

Excellent product at a bargain price!!!.......1999-08-13

I am not a technical person when it comes to audio electronics, but this boombox well exceeded even my husband's expectations. It has a sleep timer, remote control and lots of features. The sound is great and how often do you find a CD player, cassette and AM/FM radio? Not often. Everyone who has seen and heard it can't believe the price and they all want to know how they can order one, and I tell them AMAZON.COM!!!

good value for money.......1999-07-27
