Our verdict

A full-size boombox for people who still play both CDs and cassettes and want Bluetooth too. It is bulky, and the power details beyond battery operation are thin.

Overview

A listener with a drawer of cassettes and a pile of discs gets both decks in one stereo case. Bass reflex speakers and a backlit screen come with the radio, USB, MP3 and auxiliary inputs the title lists.

The reason to look at it is a cassette deck and a CD drive in the same unit as Bluetooth streaming. The limit is that the weight is substantial and the listing does not describe the power supply, only battery operation.

Who it's for

A shelf in a den or workshop that plays mixed media formats suits this boombox well. Anyone who only streams music or needs something lightweight should consider a smaller speaker.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Plays both CDs and cassettes
  • Bluetooth for phone streaming
  • Backlit LCD display
  • Bass reflex speakers
Cons
  • Heavy and bulky body
  • AC cord not listed
  • Modest stereo speaker count
  • Warranty field left blank

Performance notes

Bass reflex ports tune the cabinet to push out more low frequencies than a sealed box of the same size. A pair of speakers in one case limits stereo width. Tape and disc playback quality depends on the condition of the media.
