If you’re looking for audiophile sound quality, look elsewhere. That’s an unreasonable demand to make of a low-end model like this one. Some have complained that the sound for this model is tinny without the mega-bass, and I tend to agree. Even so, the mega-bass easily fixes the problem. Listening with headphones is a serious improvement. You might find better sound in this price range, but I doubt it.
I bought this product because I have a lot of cassettes for which I have a strong sentimental attachment. The cassette player seems to function well, but there is no counter which is a pain when you’re looking for a specific track. CDs play well, too. My impression is that classical music and jazz sound a lot better on this machine than pop music and rock, but that’s pretty subjective.
No tone control. I guess they figured the mega-bass took care of that.
The tuner clearly draws in a lot more stations than there are presets, but I live in an urban area. YMMV. The tuner seems to give better sound than the CD and cassette players.
Took me a while to figure out setting the presets, even with instructions.
After several hours, I suddenly remembered a pair of inexpensive computer speakers I had in the closet. I got ‘em out, set ‘em up, hooked them into the boombox through the headphone jack, and found the overall result quite pleasing. It’s still nowhere close to audiophile quality, but it works for me.
Just accept the fact that it’s low-end, and you can have a nice little music player for your kitchen or garage—or if you’re just an old timer who needs some way to listen to all his beloved old tapes.

The CD player functions appropriately for regular CDs but it takes this thing a minute or two to read an MP3 disc. The cassette player performs adequately, however the control keys are stiff and the access door opens quickly with a toyish sounding "thunk". I've made tapes from both line input as well as the CD player (I have no intention of recording radio). The recording quality is better than what I expected but unless the playback source you're recording from has a dedicated line-level output I can only recommend recording from the onboard CD player as many personal players or smartphones' hearphone jacks aren't a strong enough signal for line-level and many personal listening devices are too noisy for line-level use. If your smartphone or tablet is OTG capable then I'd recommend buying a DAC that provides line-level outputs.
There is no Dolby so cassette playback is rather hissy and the instructions clearly state to use only Type-1 (normal bias) cassettes. Most of the entry-level type-1s (from multiple brands) are still plentiful and are relatively inexpensive but of marginal quality. Certainly, Type-2 cassettes are rare and costly at this point in time but many people still own them and in the 21st century adding the ability to play high bias cassettes isn't exactly an intricate feat of engineering nor costly, so omitting Type-2 playback and recording capability is just laziness. The head phone output is much more powerful than a smartphone but is also rather noisy so I cannot recommend using this as a head unit nor is it audiophile quality for head phone aficionados but it should drive any headset. If my daughter proves to be serious regarding tape collecting and recording then I'll find better equipment but until then, this player should serve to satisfy the novelty of playing cassettes to a curious millennial.
