5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Sound
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } This is a very good compact stereo system. I am very happy with the quality of sound. It is also made so it, and the two speakers can be hung on the wall, which I plan to do. I’ve had this for about a month and am very satisfied with it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Unit. I would like a better manual though.
For $42, this is a great deal. This is not a high quality stereo. It is a run-of-the-mill unit, and it performs admirably in that respect.The remote is easy to operate once you learn the functions. The radio works well. It comes with a cord for auxiliary devices. I leave the cord attached to the radio. When I want to hook up my iPhone, I just plug it in, select Auxiliary, and play. It also plays CDs. I haven't used it, but it is impressive how the face of the unit slides up by remote control when you want to insert a disc.I read complaints that the speakers do not have tweeters (little speakers). That's true, but it would be a waste to put them on. Either the price would go up, or the tweeters would be too weak to do any good. The speakers that it has are standard mid-range speakers.I also read complaints that the speakers sound scratchy. That's true also, but only because the radio is strong enough to over-drive the speakers if you turn the volume all the way up. That's how it should be. You want your radio to be able to use 100% of your speaker's capability. To do that, the radio has to be stronger than the speakers. What's the solution to the scratchy speakers? Turn down the volume, silly. At its loudest (with decent sound), I can hear it several rooms away as I do my work, make lunch, use the clothes washer, etc.If you want high quality sound, booming bass, or incredibly loud sound, this isn't for you.If you want average sound quality with decent volume for basic shelf radios and bedroom radios, and if you want FM radio, CD player, an easy way to play your smart phone/iPhone music, and a fairly simple remote, this is the one for you.I like this unit. If I wanted to upgrade, I wouldn't buy a new one. I would just buy a couple of speakers with better performance. $30 worth of speakers would probably bring this unit up to the standards of units costing $150 or more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good CD/phone/tablet/ipod player with bad speakers
Less than $35 gets you a CD player with ability to play music from your phone, tablet, or iPod, plus speakers. Given how expensive CD players are (due to not many being made anymore), this is overall a pretty good deal. I picked one up to go alongside a vinyl record player for my sound setup--never get a vinyl-CD player combo because those sound like junk and it's better to buy'em separately and get a good quality one for each purpose.Pros:- CD Player has played every CD I've thrown at it with ease, including some burned ones that are scratched up. Only one CD skipped and it was one that was heavily scratched.- CD Player can keep a CD paused for at least a half hour, probably more (though I've not tried this)- CD Player has EQ options plus the ability to use no EQ. I typically use no EQ as I find all of the EQ settings built in sound pretty artificial, although the Rock one is nice for adding a little oomph to what's played through it.- AUX input works like a charm and sounds really good.- Nice modern design with the ability to be easily mounted.Cons:- The speakers are not good. If you're going to get this CD player, I would highly recommend investing in a set of decent or good speakers. I personally use some Logitech Z200s with a male RCA to female AUX adapter. I am planning on upgrading to a better set fairly soon, although these sound wayyyyy better than the speakers that come with the CD player.- CD Player is a little warm to the touch when a CD is played through it for long periods of time. No danger of a fire or anything of the sort, just wish it stayed cooler.- Remote control is not very good beyond a range of 5 feet.My only worry about this player is that it won't last long given the cheap price. But we'll see how long it works well for.
1.0 out of 5 stars Radio works sometimes and clock keeps resetting back to 12
I hate to say but this unit is bad in all ways. Cd works and that's about it. Radio only works if I unplug from wall and then replug it back in (have to do so every time) presetting stations never save. And the clock never stays set. every time you turn off unit it goes back to 12.
5.0 out of 5 stars It works
Love it, the volume is awesome, clear sound. All I wanted was a radio for the shop. Its so hard to find a decent one, this one is great so far. Ive had it maybe a month...as long as its last a while. So much for that, after several months, it will out of no where shut off and the buttons don't respond I have to unplug it, then try all options to get back to the radio and retune it, until the next time it shuts off, which could be any time. So tired of this.

Bought this unit to replace an existing one. This is actually the same unit but black instead of silver that I had before. It is has been rebranded with a different name but is identical except for color.The unit works ok but its flaw is that the blue display is way way to bright! At night it lights up the room and unless you block the display or turn it away from you, it will keep you up at night.To remedy this, I took the unit apart and installed a potentiometer in series with the blue LEDs which light the display. I mounted it so I could adjust the brightness with a screwdriver from the back. After making the mod I put it in the bedroom at night and adjusted the pot. to an acceptable brightness. It is now ok in the daylight and at nighttime but unless you want to make this modification or deal with the inconvenience of blocking the display at night, you might want to choose a different unit.
5.0 out of 5 stars 2nd one broke as well!
Bought this cd player for my elderly Mom. It worked great for a year and then the cd player just stopped working. At the low price it was easier to just order a new one. Which I did (I took her old one and put in shop bc radio did still work) and it only lasted a month. Same thing with cd player. Too late to return to Bolo.
Equipamento defeituoso.

Sounds great and works great for a great price.
Sounds great and works great and for a great price. This is for in my studio and I am very happy I purchased it for myself and it does not take up a lot of space..Thank you.
Poor remote
This is a great little radio, set up easy and sound is good. Not sure why there is a remote because you have to be practically on top of it before it works...very disappointing
