Coby CX-CD248 boom box
Date Published: 5/17/06
While not the flashiest boom box out there, the Coby CX-CD248 certainly has a feature list deserving of a second glance. It lacks the style and flair of many other boom boxes, looking more like a traditional boom box from years ago.
It has a single-disc CD player, an AM/FM tuner, and a complete cassette player and recorder. The CD is a top-loading design, leaving room for the cassette on the front panel.
The CX-CD248 is a stereo system, right down to the AM/FM tuner, which has an antenna that collapses for convenience while on the go. A simple two-digit LED displays CD track information. The CD player has basic repeat functions that will cycle either one track or an entire disc. Recordings can be made directly from CD to cassette, as well as from the radio to cassette.
The cassette deck has an automatic stop, and it also features an automatic level control to avoid both distortion from levels that are too high and tape hiss from levels that are too low.
The CX-CD248 includes a headphone jack for private listening. The unit will operate with eight D batteries.
For anyone seeking a basic boom box with cassette playback and recording, the CX-CD248 is a smart choice.
