Product Description

Ideal for summer fun or all-weather indoor entertainment, the CD-R/CD-RW-compatible ZS-X1 CD/radio boombox offers all-systems-go media playback and a sturdy, water-resistant design, so your tunes can go almost anywhere you do. The ZS-X1's exciting and ergonomic S2 Sports design includes innovative features like a carry handle spanning its stereo speakers and function controls closely clustered for ready access while listening.

Sony's ESP CD shock protection uses advanced technology to provide skip-free playback during active use, and the water-resistant design makes use of high-impact plastic housing with rubber gaskets, bushings, and waterproof seals that help keep out water, moisture, and dirt. (The unit is explicitly not designed for immersion in water.)

The ZS-X1 comes with a digital AM/FM stereo tuner, too, boasting 30-station memory presets (20 FM, 10 AM) and drift-free reception. Two-position Mega Bass sound enhances low frequencies to degrees of your choosing.

Sturdy, but too much treble

This boom box is well made, but it hurt my ears.Seriously, this thing needs a subwoofer.Even with the Mega Bass on, it's too treble.It's like it has only two settings: high pitched and higher pitched.I'm a big fan of bass, so I like to hear that deep sound as the foundation of the music.I didn't hear it with this unit.I returned mine and got a boom box with a subwoofer.If you don't care about the bass or the ability to adjust the sound beyond two settings, this box might be fine for you....

Nice CD Player

I bought this cd player about 8 months ago for my 5 year old. It is a replacement for the Disney cd boomboxes that never worked. (See my review)A hundred bucks might seem a little excessive to spend on a radio for a 5 yr. old, but considering all this one has to offer I think it'll be worth it in the long run.1. This radio is built tough. The carry handle is molded into the body. One less thing to break. This one has survived many trips into the backyard. the antenna also folds straight down ito...

Very nice

This stereo is really good if you need to bring it with you a lot. I've had mine for about a year and it still works as good as it did when it came out of the box. The only problem I had was that the antenna broke after the second week of having it, but still get good reception on the radio. It sounds really good, the bass on it is really deep and doesn't distort the sound, even at high volume....

Solid Performer

I purchased this boombox just as a hurricane was threatening (the third of the season) and wanted a decent battery powered radio. The unit was well made and extremely convenient to haul around given the handle configuration.Additionally, the tuner's ability to capture even weak/distant fm radio signals was a great bonus. As always, Sony comes through and although I agree that you do pay a little more for the Sony brand, the quality is always there....
