Sony D-E350 Portable CD Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this amazing product about three weeks ago. I previously had a KOSS mp3 player and after a week, and not being able to return it, I threw it away. So then I decided that I did not want a complicated MP3 playback CD-Player that was prone to failure, and I purchased the D-E350 from Best Buy. I have never had a single problem with it. It has amazing sound, very very long battery life, never skips and looks great. It plays all my cd's, including CD-RW's, even badly scratched ones.
Unlike the cheaper cd-players, this one comes with Great Headphones. Not the kind you would expect bundeled with a cd-player. I have been using it for three weeks, and I have only had to change the batteries once. I just can't get over how great a player this is. I HIGHLY recommend this cd-player to EVERYONE!

JVC XL-FZ258BK 5-CD Changer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great buy at twice the price.There are two features I would have liked but not major ones.Let me say first of all, I am a part time DJ and I cannot tie up all my CDs in a large 100 or 200 CD carousel.Ineed easy access to load and play lots of new music to build play lists. If you never remove your CDs then I would consider a different player.Ifyou carry your music back and forth to the car or work (or DJ like I do)and want to only load a few CDs for an evening then this is the best I'veseen.First, the good features; a 5 CD drawer that can be opened withoutstopping play, good display, easy to use remote, easy to use front buttons,a power cable that detaches from the back (a BIG help in a crowded cabinetlike mine), optical digital connection, headphone jack w/volume control. Now, the bad features; there seems to be no way to display the time for acut other than the elapsed time.I am slightly disappointed in thisobvious feature I have seen on every CD player in the last 10 years or so. A minor irritant to me, you might not miss it.The other feature is theoptical digital.I would have liked a coax digital as my Kenwood VR-309receiver only has one optical port and that is used by my JVC XV-511 DVD. Other components in my system for sound, 3 x Dual 5" Vifa speakers w/ Aldome tweeters from Speaker City in Glendale, CA, with 2 x Optimus 5 fromRadio Shack for surrounds.The sound of this setup is superb.This unitis a great replacement for my Kenwood DP-R3080 CD.

Product Description:
Although it's a budget model, the JVC XL-FZ258BK five-disc carousel player still satisfies many requirements for ergonomic operation and quality sound reproduction. JVC equips the XL-FZ258BK with play exchange, which lets you change any four discs while one is playing. An optical digital output lets you record direct to CD-R or minidisc for pure digital copies and also facilitates integration with a surround receiver and home theater.
JVC has long been recognized for its dedication to high sound quality. Accordingly, this player offers JVC's exclusive P.E.M. D.D. (Pulse Edge Modulation Differential-Linearity-Errorless) digital-to-analog (D/A) converter, touted by many as one of the most accurate and "musical" one-bit D/As available. The converter is designed to render all the delicacy and subtlety of recorded music, and an 8x oversampling digital filter lends a helping hand.
Conveniences include continuous play and smart random play, five individual disc-select keys on the front panel, and a remote control with 10-key pad for direct disc and track access. The XL-FZ258BK also offers a 20-track program chart, resume functionality (letting you pick up where you left off before you turned off the player), program play (up to 32 tracks and/or discs), and four-way repeat (which lets you repeat all tracks, a single track, programmed tracks, and random-play options).
JVC has thoughtfully provided an independent volume control for the player's headphone jack, and the unit comes with a disc-stabilizing clamper to reduce potentially sound-degrading internal vibrations.
JVC's enhanced Compu Link control system uses intuitive technology to foster communication between various JVC components. This unit comes with a one-year warranty on parts and a 90-day warranty on labor.

Denon DCM-290 CD/CD-R/RW 5 Disc Changer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm being critical here- this is a good-sounding player.My critique would be that the sound isn't balanced- it's weighted toward the highs.Not much lows or low mids.Bright-sounding (I'm sensitive to this) but not harsh.
Nice amount of detail- I can understand lyrics on some songs that I never could before (our previous changer was a JVC).Changer is less "clunky" sounding than our JVC.

Sony MHCEC98Pi Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System with Digital Media Port and 530-Watts RMS (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I did not purchase this from Amazon, but I wanted to write a review anyway.I have been looking everywhere for a stereo system that has clear sound, great bass, an iPod hookup and cd changer.If it had a cassette deck, that would be even better, but I could deal without one.I really liked the idea of an extra subwoofer.I wasn't going to purchase this system because it only has a 1 disc tray for cd's, but I figured that's where the iPod comes in for continuous music, and I should at least try it.Needless to say, I bought this stereo and hooked it up immediately (set up was a piece of cake).

I was immediately disappointed when the wires for my speakers were extremely short.Maybe only about 3 1/2 feet long.I like to spread out my system a little so I can get the best sound.Now, I'm not talking about placing speakers all around the room - they wouldn't even extend to the edges of my entertainment center.

The worst part of all, and the main reason why I am returning this system, is the sound is muffled.Even when I changed the preset EQ settings, the only one I was somewhat happy with was the "MP3 SURROUND"... but it still muffled my music.I could barely hear "s" sounds in the vocals... when I could, they sounded more like an "f".I should say, I am also very picky when it comes to electronics, but when I'm spending $200 + dollars, I think it's allowed!All I am asking for is crisp sound.

So, here are my pros to the system:
--Very nice looking stereo system
--DSGX feature really boosts the sound, along with the subwoofer
--LOVE the included iPod dock, which also charges
--7 different EQ settings for sound (my old stereo had 4)
--530 watts for loud sound

My cons, which severely outweigh the pros for me:
--Muffled sound.Vocals and music bits are not clear at ALL
--1 CD playing capability
--Wires and chords aren't long enough to spread out components to my liking
--Expensive for the things it is lacking

Hopefully this review will be helpful - I wish I had one that was this detailed when I was looking.Mind you, everyone has their own taste.

I would not recommend this system to anyone who is looking for crisp, clear sound.But if you like a nice strong bass and a lot of power... you may want to take a look.

Sony LBTZUX9 Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System 1000W RMS Total Power (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I took time to go to several stores to try different systems. With each system no matter how innovative or divers the system with the latest capabilities, the only thing that made any difference that was noticeable in the store was the number of watts to the speaker. I tried positions and that was pretty much negligible. So now my mission was to find a mini-stereo that would be a shelf system to replace my poor old 25 year old system that finally bit the dust.

I actually tried the Sony LBTZX9 Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System and found it pretty good. Then I spotted on line the Sony LBTZUX9 Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System. 1000 watts meant 250 watts per-speaker. I do not want rock sounds that will breing every fire engine for the surrounding neighborhood. I did not want a system that you have to ware sunscreen to listen to Prokofiev on a cool evening while reading. So I took a chance and ordered this monster. I was aware that it came in a shipping box that would require a team to deliver; how ever I thought it was just well packed. Expecting a mini-stereo, a shelf system I did not expect just one speaker to be larger than the whole of my older stereo system.Naturally I realize that this animal was never going to fit on a shelf (book shelf) as it has twice the depth and would tip out. The tape-to-tape system opens up on the top instead of the front which again makes it impossible to place on a book self. I am also starting to question the term "Mini".

I was able to retrieve Cargo cases from another room to replace the book shelves. It took five of these animals (one for the stereo and one each for the huge speakers.) there are two remotes because there is not enough room on one remote to hold all the buttons. The speakers were simple to setup. Everything works fine out of the box. However this system may be tad overkill. But the purpose is not for great volumes as great ranges to hear the subtle sounds that you can only get in a concert hall. Many of the time I have to pick the "flat" option to keep the boom box effect to overwhelm the music.

Well with its new home and a little adjustment this is the system to take me into the next couple of decades before the technology will make it obsolete.

Craig Personal Cd Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Craig personal CD player is a good buy.The sound quality is very good.With anti-skip technology, it can play CDs with which my car stereo has trouble.It's lightweight and the headphones are adequate.(Since this was a replacement for a Sony player, I decided to stick with my old headphones.)The manual indicates how you can buy an adapter to play through a stereo, do random play, or repeat a favorite track.It's lightweight, easy to stick in a travelling bag.The wall adapter to draw power from a plug that I used with my previous player fits into the port, but I haven't been able to get the player to work off AC current.With batteries, it works well.Particularly with the value for the money, this is a good buy.

Teac MC DX32i - Micro system with iPod cradle - radio / CD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased this for my office.I wanted a small system with good sound that I can hook my ipod to.The system has good sound quality for its size.It is very easy to hook up.The only issue I find with it is that you need to point the remote directly at the stereo in order for it to work.This does not seem to be a problem for me as the stereo is in direct eye site of my desk about 30 feet away.The remote does allow you to work all the features of the ipod many other systems only allow basic functions.I am impressed with the sound quality and it provides plenty of volume to fill my office with music which is aprox. 700 sqft. One of the best stereo's I could find for the price, that included the features I required. "I purchased at Costco was less expensive." I would purchase this product again.

Panasonic SC-HC40 Compact Stereo System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For a CD player with decent sound with an iPod dock for a small to medium sized room, this piece will work. I really like the size of it (very compact, smaller than I thought it would be) and the design of it. It's very sleek and looks great in our living room. The remote control is also better than I would expect for a system of this size. And, considering how strangely difficult it is to find a CD player with an iPod dock at a reasonable price, I'm glad I have this.

I only dock it down a few stars because of the sound. The sound is average. Despite some minimum controls like bass and treble, the unit just doesn't produce a crisp, sharp sound. It can definitely fill a room, which is great, but for true audiophiles and stereo-quality sound, I'd advise to look elsewhere (and probably at a higher priced unit). My wife loves it and thinks it's great. I, however, can tell the sacrifice in sound quality. It's not bad by any means, just a few notches below the best out there.

It's also more difficult than it should be putting in and taking out CDs.

For us, in its particular room, function (size and design) wins out a bit over quality. When I buy a bigger home with multiple rooms, I'll upgrade to a more traditional stereo system.

HELLO KITTY KT2053 AM/FM Stereo Alarm Clock Radio with Top Loading CD Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this product for our 2 1/2 year old daughter to use in her bedroom. The controls are fairly intuitive and the sound quality while not great, is definitely in line with the price-no complaints there. Everything works as advertised and the best part is that the daughter loves it and has no problem working the major controls herself.
The first one we received quit working after about a week but no worries, the vendor (J&R Music and Computer World) was very courteous and took care of all the return paperwork as well as getting us a new one fairly quickly. I was impressed with their customer service and I'm not easily impressed.
Overall a good experience with both the product and the vendor.

Sony LBT-ZX66i iPod Ready Mini Shelf System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been listening to my new Sony LBT-ZX66i for the past 3 hours. It does everything it claims to do and does it well. Unlike last year's equivalent model which had a (now obsolete) cassette deck, this year's model gives you a much more useful iPOD dock.(for most full-sized iPODs, such as my iPOD Classic, you can insert your iPOD directly into the LBT-ZX66i's dock. Some older or smaller iPOD's may require an adaptor)
The Sony features a 5-disc carousel-type CD changer, an iPOD dock & AM/FM radio, plus the ability to do Karaoke(there's two microphone inputs via quarter inch plug) and a headphone output which uses full sized quarter inch headphone plug.
This system is powerful and clean, and the "X-Groove" button will provide the outrageous thumping that your disco,rap, hip-hop & Dance music enthusiast craves. But here an important difference: unlike many similar systems from other manufacturers, when the thumping mode("X-Groove") is switched off, the LBT-ZX-66i can provide clear,natural sound, with crisp midrange and highs for those of us who prefer rock, pop,jazz and other types of music. Believe me: even without the added thumping, the LBT-ZX-66i is no slouch in the bass department. The 3-way speakers(with horn-loaded tweeters) are better than you would normally get in a system of this type.
There are number of effects modes optimized for various types of music(Rock,Pop, Salsa,Reggae,Dance,Jazz,Samba,Tango). "Rock" seems to yield the clearest and most natural sound. There's also a simulated surround mode(which I have yet to try), and a 3-band digital equalizer(you can create your own custom E.Q. settings in the unit's memory). I'll eventually experiment with these features. And if you have a turntable, there's a phono input. Programming the FM/AM tuner was easy and the reception and sound quality was fine.
My only complaint is this: the remote control is a bit too basic. There are too many features of the LBT-ZX66i which can't be controlled from the remote control. These features(including the effects modes) can only be selected from the main unit's front panel.
I normally wouldn't comment on the merchant here in a product review,but I'll say this:I've had a great experience buying from "J&R Music World" for the past 29 years, whether directly, or more recently through Amazon. After buying a Plasma T.V. from J&R(via Amazon) and seeing J&R drop the price $200 lower ten days later, I contacted J&R, who gave me a $200 store credit, which I used towards this Sony compact stereo system.
One other thing:this system is fairly large. It is not exactly a shelf system, but if you've got room for it, then go for it. You won't be disappointed. Not that many companies are making this sort of system anymore(JVC doesn't make systems of this size & power any more), but Sony can make this sort of system better. The manufacturing quality is excellent, and it's got enough features that can either be used or not used, so it can be tailored to produce good sound no matter what your musical tastes are.
AS AN UPDATE TO THE ABOVE:The effects modes CAN be selected on the remote control, via a button called "EQ".
Important additional note: if you are planning on playing CD-R's on this unit, I would advise you to try a few of your CD-R's on this unit before buying. While the LBT-ZX66i had no problem playing CD-R's that I recorded on my rack mount pro audio CD recorder or CD's that I recorded on my iMAC computer, I have hundreds of CD'sthat were recorded by my friend on several PC's that he's owned over the past 5 years. None of these discs can be played on the LBT-ZX66i(which cannot read the table of contents on these discs). The LBT-ZX66i is one of 14 pieces of equipment(and one of four Sony products) in my home which can play CD's, and the only one that can't play these PC-burned CD-R's. All of these CD-R's feature standard CD Audio.

Philips MC235B Flat Wall Mountable Micro Shelf System (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just picked this up and it's a very nice shelf system. It's not going to shake the walls at high volume, but if you were looking for that much power, you wouldn't be looking at a shelf system to begin with. The true test of quality sound comes at the lower end of the volume knob. Here is where this unit excels. No hissing or crackling noise and the bass is rich and pure and sounds dynamite. I played a burn job from mp3 files and I was stunned at just how good this unit really does sound! Mind you, this system does have a wee bit more power than comparable units, so you can crank the volume up loud enough for most people's tastes and there is no sound distortion at the high end, either. It's also pretty easy to mount on the wall, if so desired. It does come with a stand, which suffices well enough, if you don't feel like drilling into your walls. I only have one complaint and it's a minor one. While the speakers attach to the unit as seen in the pic, Philips should have also enabled you to be able to mount the speakers onto a wall, apart from the unit, to achieve a much better stereo sound. I have a speaker on the nightstand on each side of the bed and when I lie down to relax with some good tunes, it sounds simply fantastic. So, sound like a good deal? It is, and for a great price, too! Just make sure you have some extra speaker wire handy, as there's not that much attached to each speaker to begin with. Trust me on this. For the price being asked, in my opinion, sound byte for sound byte, this is one of the best shelf units out there. I listened to a lot of small systems in the up to and a little above the one hundred and fifty level and this system won hands down every time. A nice added bonus feature is that it was also the most eye appealing, too!

New Portable MP3 CD Player Boombox USB SD MMC Input NR Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm always looking for SD chip player peripherals.This one has a nice feature set, and sounds pretty good as well in SD chip mode.FM radio mode doesn't sound as good.Cheap analog AM / FM tuner and volume, but that fits the price.The blue LCD display is a little hard to read.

Added annoyance:SD songs can end a few seconds early with a small "pop."Not sure why it happens to some songs and not others.

I'd be willing to pay more for more features, like better radio, better sound, and a dual alarm clock for travel.Add a weather radio band and it would be the perfect traveling companion.I'm hoping this technology takes off because carrying music in the SD format is very convenient, more convenient than fumbling with ipod peripherals.

Factory-Reconditioned Bosch PB10-CDR-RT Power Box Advanced Job Site Radio with CD Player and Remote Control Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I saw this device on job-site not too long after it was released.I had to search around to find it, now it's for sale everywhere.
Pros:
-cage allows it to be chained down with ladders and job box.
-cord wrap keeps cable tidy when not in use.
-light weight.
-square shape lets you stack it on a two wheeler (unlike the DW & Mil).
-snap-down CD tray keeps discs from jamming if you tip it or crash into it with a skyjack.
-EQ was designed to be LOUD and fill a room with sound (see cons).
-on-board GFCI cleans up cable clutter.
-12v output and mini-jack input lets me tie in an i-pod or other gear.
-battery charger cabinet holds 8-9 CD jewel cases for safe transport!

CONS:
-EQ was not designed for the audiophile carpenter.If you want booming lows and tight high-end, buy a Bose Wave Radio and hope you don't trash it.
-no line out jack for sending to a transmitter or other device.
-FM reception is garbage, I use CDs and MP3s unless we are listening to AM.
-backlit display is not designed for viewing above horizontal.If you have the box setting on the ground, you must tip it back (or lay on the floor) to read the display.From above you see all possible icons.
-volume control doesn't give you much room for subtle music.I normally keep it on 1 or 2.Volume is electronic with a momentary up-down control via a shuttle knob (on the left)
-GFCI doors flip up, so you have to tip the unit to the side to see the plugs for mating.I just tore the doors off after a while.I figured, why have rain lids?I work indoors well after the job has been dry.
-all of the nooks and crannies on the molded case collect a LOT of dust and debris.

HINT!
The antenna is discretely hidden in the round top handle.I disassembled the unit, cut the antenna lead to the handle and soldered it to a retractable antenna (from my local RadioShack) that I attached easily to the top of the main shell.I do not reccomend this procedure, but I can tell you, it SIGNIFICANTLY increased my FM reception.

Get awesome sound through the PB10-CD's premium speakers and 3.5 watt built-in amplifier, plus four preset equalizer settings for dialing in that perfect sound. And you can control it all via the included remote control that can be stored on the Power Box or on a key ring.
The advanced CD player will play all of your favorite CD-R/RW discs as well as your regular CDs, and it has a 40-second anti-skip protection feature built-in to eliminate CD skipping. If you would rather listen to your MP3 player, the PB10-CD comes with an auxiliary input, allowing you to plug in and play your digital music device or other auxiliary music source.
Recharge While Listening to Tunes or Power the unit off a Bosch Battery
The Power Box does more than just provide great music to the jobsite; it will also recharge all of your 12V-24V NiCad Bosch power tool batteries while the music plays away! Simply plug your low battery into the interior charging station, and it will recharge the battery in no time. Or, if you're on the go, use your Bosch battery to power the radio without the cord.
If you need to charge your cell phone or any other 12v electrical component, the Bosch Power Box has an auxiliary jack to always keep you up and running.
It also has an integrated four-way GFCI protecting outlet that meets OSHA requirements, so you can run all of your power tools through the PB10-CD. Who knew a radio/CD player could be so versatile!

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this primarily for non-Ipod mp3 use. Hard to believe this really retails for $129.00. All plastic. Sound is ok, no bass adjustments. At first it did sound tinny, but got better the longer it was on. Pretty color!! Overall is ok, glad I didnt pay full price, I would have beed extemely disappointed.
