Positives: Good workmanship. Select the source CD, radio, USB or card is quick and easy. Radioasender save easily. Reception quality is good. LED Cinema red blue and so is visually okay.
Negatives: Equalizer provides only setting variants (pop, rock, classical, etc.) no separate control of ups and downs, basses are extremely weak, heights not top. The volume limitation becomes effective before the boxes reach their limits Technically good, but ... From a Ghetto Blaster expected more!
Compare: My old Sharp WQ-T238H (BK), then 250 DM, radio reception poor, sound worlds better, when compared side by side with the same input (the sharp over line -in) no longer hear the AEG, which dominates sharp the AEG both the sound volume and the sound quality, a 20 year old device. Since there is surround sound and extra bass, separately switchable. Party Tough. We have previously taken on the moped as audio system. The infected some small stereo in the sack. Why are the manufacturer no longer to build a compact powerful device capable of? The mechanics of the sharp (twin cassette deck - consecutive cassette) is more complex as the entire mechanism of the AEG.
The ideal would be a combination AEG Sharp: New features from AEG, the rest from Sharp.
Conclusion: As a DIY and garden or kitchen radio Radio acceptable radio reception good, pleasant service, who puts on sound and bass value and wants to make time outdoors a party should not buy.
Addendum: I just looked. The Sharp GX-M10HOR seems to be a boom box in the tradition of WQ series. But is 185 EUR more expensive and has - as my old - a bad radio reception. So has probably not changed in 20 years ...
