Review on Megatek CB-M25BT: Portable CD Player Boombox with FM - Empowering Music On-The-Go by Jim Ball

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good stereo and CD player; I wish it came with a longer audio and power cord.

I bought this stereo with CD player to listen to the radio in the office and to play my Christmas CDs. I like that it has two speakers, adjustable antennas, an AUX port on the front of the device and the whole device is very light. The memory function of the previous mode is also useful. It starts playing my favorite radio station or is instantly ready for me to use the AUX setting, depending on which mode I used last. The set is small enough to fit in the side drawer of my filing cabinet, which is locked at the end of the day; I don't want the stereo to "grow legs". My only concern is that both the audio cable and the power cable are too short. The way the outlet and mini PC case (headphone jack) are configured in my office requires the stereo to be on my desk, right in front of my office phone. I spent an extra $9 on a 6-inch audio cable to free up valuable desk space. There were also a couple of power outages because the power cord on the back of the unit accidentally came loose. Note that I didn't intentionally try to unplug the power cord those two times. I would buy the device again if it had a longer audio cable. Yes, $9 isn't that much, but it matters to some.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
