Buy For Sound, Not For Looks
Pros: Good power and sound quality
Cons: Big, heavy, and ugly
BottomLine: If you need volume and sound quality from a boombox, this will deliver in a way very few other units can match.

Almost awesome, but ultimately not.
Pros: Line-In, Remote, Good sound for a boombox.
Cons: Huge/Heavy, No MP3, still sounds like a boombox.
BottomLine: Sounds good for a boombox, and has line-in. If that's what you want, this will do it. If money's no object, get the JVC $250 one.

SONY CFD-G505 BOOMBOX
Pros: Can get pretty loud. Flashy appearance may appeal to teenagers.
Cons: Boomy bass. Shrill treble. Poor tone controls. Remote operates radio and CD only.
BottomLine: I'm disappointed. Sound is compressed, shrill and boomy. Display is tiny. May have power supply problems. Awful tone controls. Sound is annoying. I returned mine.

Great sounding Sony!
Pros: Looks, remote included, subwoofer, plenty of volume, excellent sound!
Cons: poor fm reception...no CD recall.
BottomLine: I'd buy another without a second thought. As a matter of fact...once my brother heard my CFD-G50, he rushed out and bought one with no regrets!

Big sound...Little Price
Pros: Great price, features, sound and looks.
Cons: Weak radio reception, preset equalizer
BottomLine: My final recommendation is two thumbs up. You get a lot from this unit for only $99.
