The AZ1305 CD/radio boombox comes in stylish black with blue accents, helping you look cool as you enjoy your favorite music or other programming from CD and FM/AM radio. The AZ1305 comes with a remote control, too, so you'll be able to switch tracks or audio sources even after settling into your favorite listening position.
The unit's CD player is compatible with audio CD-R/CD-RWs, so the box will play your home-brewed music mixes as well as prerecorded CDs. The CD player also offers 20-track programming, random play, and repeat play. At 1 watt per channel x 2, this stereo won't be shaking any rafters, but its ported, 2-way speakers with inset tweeters use their power well, delivering rich, full-bodied sound at modest levels. The AZ1305's digital AM/FM stereo tuner boasts 30 station presets (20 FM, 10 AM) and auto station scanning.
A dynamic bass-boost circuit lets you tailor the sound for listening to various different types of music or in different environments. The AZ1305 offers portable entertainment using 6 C batteries for the boombox and, in home or without, you'll need 2 AAA batteries for the remote control (batteries not included).
What's in the Box
Boombox, an AC power cord, remote control, a user's manual, and warranty information.
Good quality, good sound
For a little boombox, the sound on this system is more than adequate. Like nearly any boombox, I wouldn't want this to be my main stereo for filling a house with sound unless I was in a studio or dorm room, but it's great as a supplemental radio in the bedroom, kitchen, etc. I have had mine for about a month, and it has been a perfect stero for my bedroom. Nice sound (even on low volume), and the remote is very nice to have for a boombox.
While not well known in the American market, Philips is known the world over for making very good products. I wouldn't let the reviewer below, who had a SINGLE bad experience (as could happen with any product), to dissuade people from buying very good products from this company.
THIS PRODUCT IS AWESOME
The person who made the review about it being junk....they probably are not careful about electronics and ruined it right out of the box. THIS PRODUCT IS AWESOME! IT EVEN HAS A REMOTE! THE MOST EXPENSIVE SONYS DON'T HAVE THAT! EVERYONE SHOULD BUY ONE!
Piece of JUNK!
This device is flimsy and cheap. It broke within 1 hour of use. The sound is average at best. The error I got on this CD Player wasn't even listed in the troubleshooting guide.
STAY AWAY FROM PHILIPS MERCHANDISE.
