Customer Review

I bought this radio for the office and am very happy with it.

Sound - not expect miracles. The device can not bring 100 sqm space to tremble. But for a radio of this size and power, it sounds very good. Bass, treble - music sounds good, language is also good to understand.
Radio reception - worse than my old radio, no manual mono possible because I did not have the radio junkie, the reception is satisfactory for me. Those who place great emphasis on radio, would receive many stations or poor reception, found this radio should perhaps try for now.
Cassette - Yes, works, but I do not need.
CD - works flawlessly. Music CD and MP3-burned CD.
USB - With the same shortcoming as with MP3-CD, no ID3 tag display. The USB stick should be maybe set too low (in two ways, external dimensions and space). With my 1GB I can handle. Negative I find the rubber cover over the USB port. It looks cheap. I'm curious to see how long it lasts. I'm going to a 2GB mini USB stick down me of not looking too far out of the machine.
MP3 Link - used to be called times Line In. Is nice, I do not need, the equipment list is, however, so completely.
The remote is very small and used button batteries, which I can not stand. I always stand in front of the shelf and can not remember what size I need me. In "normal" batteries such as AA or AAA, it is easier for me.
Optics - a matter of taste. I think it's OK. The radio does not work for very playful.
For me, the unit has earned 4 stars (1 star deduction for the "bad" radio reception and the missing ID3 tag display).
