Unregistered guest | Hey! I am attempting to buy a new boombox and have narrowed down the my choice to 4 from different companies, and would like a recommendation out of them (or maybe one I don't know of?). I am receiving an iPod with an iTrip (3G 30gb model), and would play it through either the Tuner, or maybe an input (such as on the Sony). I listen to burned CD's, regular CD's, and FM radio. I may even hook up my Xbox to it (Sony?), though that isn't important. I listen to mainly Rock, Punk, Techno, and Rap. I LOVE bass, and don't really care as much about "surround" effects so much as the best sounding system. I would like to spend no more than $150 shipped. I like to listen reasonably loudly, and HATE distortion. Cassette isn't important. Here are what I have narrowed it down to: Sony CFD-G70 Aiwa CSD-FD88 Panasonic RX-D23 Philips AZ2555 I am leaning towards the Sony, but I haven't listened to ANY of these, so I would like a real opinion. Thanks for any help, and if possible, PLEASE email me a response at shnikejsb@aol.com |

Panasonic sa-ck410 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3067298013&category=4787 Phillips mini : http://www.smartbargains.com/prod.aspx?s=SE1&ev=0&evn=&deptId=2&catId=5&prodId=2 010223647 This one you can connect it to your computer as well - to improve the sound! Looks' good, and gives upscale smooth sound. Sounds great with a headphone. The panasonic is not as smooth, but gives a bigger sound - has more bass for rocking. Sounds fun. |

Unregistered guest | Thank you for the reply, but I would like a boombox (with non-detachable speakers) so I can carry it around with me. I want a portable system because I want it to be PORTABLE. Yes, a minisystem gives better sound, but they are too big and bulky for my tastes, which is why I prefer a boombox. Thanks again! -JB |

Doesn't have a CD player but you can attach your ipod to it. http://www.cambridgesoundworks.com/store/category.cgi?category=openbox Here is 10% off coupon - expires soon.
