Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the 80W Audio System's sound quality, Bluetooth connectivity, CD player, and price. They appreciate its simple and easy-to-use design, compact size, remote control, and retro look. Some customers find the volume to be too loud when turned on and the size to be a bit large. A few customers wish the display could show the name of the MP3 being played and that it had AM radio in addition to FM.

    I bought this audio system primarily to play audiobooks on cd. Though the sound quality is good, the controls make listening to cd audiobooks difficult. 1) When placed on “pause”, it holds the place for only a short while, then turns off. My place in the book is lost. 2) Occasionally, the player just shuts off in the middle of the disc. Again, my place in the book is lost. 3) If there is a disc in the player when it shuts off, the disc cannot be ejected until after the machine greets you and reads the disc. 4) Fast forward and reverse are slow. I spend way too much time trying to find my place in the book. Shopping for a good audiobook CD player is extremely difficult, because on line descriptions do not cover how controls operate, and sales people don’t know. I’ll keep this player for my music, but I’m very disappointed. Customer service was no help.

    Excellent product for us old timers

    I was not in the market for one of these, but the appearance of the product in person spoke to me. It's retro while being quite modern at the same time. In my teens I was a stereo nut, back in the days when you would buy "a la carte" a receiver, turntable, dual cassette deck, later on a single-tray CD player, and if you were really hip, an equalizer. Oh and of course, speakers. You would upgrade to bigger and better components as funds allowed. It was actually quite cool. Anyway, thirty some years later we have Bluetooth, and vinyl records are coming back to an extent. I still own tons of CD's and feel when they are re-digitized the quality suffers a bit. Just my opinion. So this system has a subwoofer that fires towards the bottom of the cabinet, and a very clean look and carefully assembled feel to it. The CD player slot within the digital display is nearly invisible. Pairing the Bluetooth to my phone was painless. There are NO inputs or outputs on the rear panel, save an antenna connection, and a 4 foot one is provided. The only knob I would have liked to see added would be for manual tuning. Instead of one giant volume knob, there could have been two smaller knobs for both purposes. And there is no AM band, minor detail. Compared to the LG and Sony systems that have giant displays, flashing lights, and buttons all over the place, this is rather Spartan. There are just five presets to the internal EQ. But this unit is a slam-dunk just for the utter simplicity and excellent sound quality for its size. It's not a bargain but fairly priced, and the quality is there. The remote has a nice tactile feel, just enough buttons to do what it has to do. Maybe nearing the 50 year-old mark isn't so bad after all.
