Sony ZS-H10CP Heavy-Duty CD Radio Boombox Reviews
I refinish furniture as a hobby so my shop has lots of dust flying around in it most of the time. I have it plugged into AC and will most likely never put a battery in it. This radio/boombox has slightly over average sound quality. But I've only had mine a couple of months. Sony ZS-H10CP Heavy-Duty CD Radio Boombox. Time will tell how durable this unit is and that is the main point for me. I suppose that the designers wanted to limit the controls to limit the entry points that they had to dust/water proof.
Controls are somewhat rudimentry. My review:. This device has a large footprint. When my old radio quit working (most likely because of all the dust inside it).
The CD player produces a better quality of sound than the radio does but that could be due to the crappy radio stations where I live. It's not a bad thing, I just mention it in case space is an issue. My use of this radio is as follows (just to be clear): it sits on my workbench and does not move. I can live with them but I am occasionally frustrated when I'd like to back up withing a track and can't. I found several shop radios but I purchased this one because it was made by Sony as I have had good experience previously with Sony boom boxes.
It's almost twice the size of my previous Sony boombox. I started looking around for something more appropriate. Overall I am happy with this purchase.
It is loud enough to be heard over generators and air compressors and lasts a solid week on batteries when used for 9 hours a day on high volume. My only complaint (and the reason it doesn't get 5 stars) is that the radio resets itself when switching from wall power to battery power - forcing you to retune and readjust the volume. I've used this boombox at a worksite for the past few months now. For most people it's probably not a problem, but when working around generators and trying to save batteries it gets old quickly. Already it has survived a 6 foot fall onto concrete with only minor scratching. The line-in jack is a great feature for working in areas with poor radio reception.
This radio would have gotten five stars except the antenna came apart when extended for the first time. I work in a fleet truck and auto repair shop. Good sound, MP3 player, radio presets are all good features. The seals around everything make me think it will outlast the last few radios. It gets very dusty and smoky in there. I rate it a buy.
It has great sound and contrary to another review has plenty of volume. It has the ability to let you plug in an auxillary music source, and plays MP3s. I bought this radio with its features in mind. I have used it both ways and as an ordinary radio. Overall I would buy it again. It is a bit large, doesn't have a remote, and the ac adapter is heavy.
In case you are interested his name is Sampson - he is a labrabor rescue dog and we have had him for about 6-7 years. So we are very happy with this purchase. This works very well for him. We also needed one for when out power goes out - which is often.
So if you care about dogs - please rescue one. ok so this will sound wierd but I got this for my dog who is afraid of thunder. He is now about 12-14. We had an old boom box that wore out so decided to get a new one.
And then get them neutered. THanks from us and Sampson. What more can you ask for. Ok so I did not tell you that when it thunders we try to get him to go to the basement - turn up the boom box on a classical station and turn on the washer (yes with clothes in it) and the dryer. - both dog and family.
He says to tell you that this one is AOK. He had this problem when he came to us and it took us quite some time to work it all out for him.
