Portable CD Player Boombox

I have been researching radio/CD players for awhile and, like most people, I was first and foremost concerned with quality sound and radio station reception. Second, easy operation, such as simple knobs for volume and tuning. Third, ease of switching functions (for me, this is just the radio and CD player). Fourth, the size of the unit so I could use it on my night stand or other locations in the house. After checking ratings and reviews on other brands, I finally settled on this one and, once I removed it from the box and plugged it in, it was clear to me that this Megatek was an excellent choice! Whether playing CDs or the radio, the sound is impeccable with the factory setting, whether I'm playing operas or classic rock or listening to my favorite classical radio station. The volume knob has a good range (0-32) which is convenient because sometimes CDs aren't recorded at the best level, so you can control it accordingly for optimal sound. The same is true with radio stations, especially those with weaker signals, but that's what the attached antenna is for, though I haven't needed to use it because major stations come in loud and clear. As a bonus, there is a preset function for your favorite radio stations (scan or set them manually); as for me, I only use a few stations, so I like the knob on top for manual tuning. Sound is #1, as I began this review, and again, I find the factory setting to be perfectly balanced so you get good sound and that includes bass, treble, or anything in between. Some players have an awful tinny sound and thankfully, you won't find that with this unit - only terrific sound. It's a smart looking unit, too, as the product picture on Amazon shows. Now, I should point out that I'm very particular when it comes to music, and I can guarantee that if this Megatek Portable CD player with FM radio didn't meet my ears' high standards after I tested it out, it would have been returned the day I received it; but I am happy to report it's still here and thanks to Megatek, I am enjoying my CDs and radio every day immensely! There is also a user's manual with this unit for your handy reference. I might add, the price is very reasonable, too, for this quality unit.

I bought this CD Player for my daughters birthday. She was so excited to set it up. When we removed it from the box we were disappointed to find it had an American plug and not suitable for Australia. I'll have to sort out a plug adaptor.

This stereo is awesome. It has an awesome sound, and it has a plugin. All you have to do is just plug it in, put in a disc and start playing music :) I was worried it wasn't going to have a plug, and was only going to be powered by bluetooth. But that is not the case here. You simply plug it in, put in a disc and start listening to music. It's awesome!

I work in a TK classroom and our boombox all of a sudden quit working and needed a replacement quick. This fit the bill. Pros: All our songs are on CD’s and there is a repeat option which is great since we sing certain songs 2x - and it saves me a trip from going back and forth to the boombox. Sound quality is great. Con: Once you put a CD in, it plays automatically without hitting “play”. This could be a pro or a con but for me, I don’t always play song #1 and so it gets annoying if I put a CD in and it starts playing right away. The kids get a kick out of it though. Overall, this boombox works very well and seems pretty durable. We have had it for about 6 months and would recommend to anyone looking for a new CD boombox.

Gave this as a gift to my musician friend who said that it has a full sound that is clean and crisp. He has been enjoying it for a while now and uses it daily for musical purposes and listening enjoyment. Great product!
