Roxel Camden Retro Cassette CD Player Boombox with DAB/FM Radio, Portable Vintage Player, BT 5.3, USB/TF/SD Playback, Mains Power, Headphone Jack, Vintage Design (Silver)

Only had it a couple of weeks so we will see. But first off it looks good, still prefer the look of the GPO Brooklyn but advise against buying that one. Sound is actually really good and cd dab Bluetooth all work well, sound is superior to the Brooklyn I have both but display on Brooklyn gone and can't fix. Anyway back to this thing, from what I've read up it's the best about and there's not a lot so I say for the money it's spot on, only issue is tape recorder play back from recording Bluetooth very noisy and complete rubbish, but tape from cd ok so far.

Memories of my AMSTRAD Tape to Tape from 1983 this is a great stereo in it's own right.Easy to use, and a lot of kit for your money. (There is no remote control offered with it)The Bluetooth worked straight away but I need a 10 metre cable into the very useful AUX jack to play my YouTube from down the corridor and round the corner.This is great for playback on all outputs DAB/AUX/CD/USB/Cassette - but they are out of balance - and the cassette canot tape them at all well.The CD buffers it's data and the tape has digital noise reduction showing that the software is capable of modification. That being said, a firmware update could bring things back in order. Any device with a SD card slot should be able to ingest and load a patch to make all the inputs match to the level required to balance the recordings.I really do love this machine and hope it can be made better by a firmware update.

It lasts good for about a month. For this size and price it should have lasted me for a year at least. I have a £40 portable speaker that i got in 2015 that still works. What is the Roxels excuse for only working 1 month? I have barely moved it from it's place, took it outside once. Haven't dropped it, haven't banged anything off of it, haven't spilled any liquid in its vicinity.It was a really good stereo for the 3 and a half weeks that it was working. The internal components are obviously the cheapest they could get. Why does the CD player, tape deck and radio not work anymore? The speakers have blown out and I haven't really had it up past Volume level 25, and barely use the XBass. I would ask for a return but I'm unsure I want to go through this again. Really disappointing

All singing, all dancing,a wonderful piece of kit .Brilliant.!

Don't know why this has such bad reviews, it's an absolute brilliant sound system with an amazing sound, bass is class, cassette and cd player works Great as does the radio

The unboxing and packaging were top-notch. I can’t fault this. However, mine came with a ding in one of the speakers. I requested a return and replacement, but I was afraid I’d get one worse.First, I like the unit. I think it’s well-assembled.Positives:- Uses real D batteries, not some awful rechargeable built-in one!- Real AC mains!- VU meters are cool blue-lit.- The dials are very smooth and don’t feel cheap.- Good damping, soft eject on the cassette and CD player.- The display is very clear.- DAB worked fantastic.Cons:- The VU meters were erratic. One side peaked considerably lower than the other, regardless of the source.- The dial “bass” would suddenly go deep when turning from 3 to 0. It felt trapped (software is digital).- The CD player made a constant tapping sound on the CDs I tried.- The SD card seemed faulty. Nothing would insert.Now, I really wanted this unit. Why or why do manufacturers make these issues? I would pay a decent amount for a retro boombox, but they fail every single time.another thing that annoyed me that I just couldn't help but mention is the white arrows slapped on the cassette doorand they off centre blocking the tape reels spinning as an 80's kid I wanted the full retro experience watching the satisfying tape reels... and them dam white REW and FWD just spoil it for me!!On a positive note, this is by far the best I’ve come across. But the ding in the speaker has left a sour taste in my mouth. It’s such a shame because I really do like it. But the hassle of a return if another is faulty and sent out with dints is a real pain.The sound was quite good, loud enough, and the bass was warm and quite rich, if a little dry.Also, something strange would happen when I played a CD. The CD would stop spinning at random times, but the music would still play.Maybe it’s playing from memory? Like a buffer, strange, not sure if it’s a fault, but it seems intentional if so, it’s kinda cool…Also note thatThe roxel CamdenAlso goes under various modelsBased on the sharp gf 575There's the aiwa AI7012Leotec LT-CD1908BUCTMedion Life MD 44238Soundmaster SCD1980MUSE M-380 GBOrion SCR-B9There's probably more! Variants and colour choices however are for most other markets and may not include DAB!I really miss the replies and responds that amazon removed especially when buyers could discuss their experiences with products.

Excellent quality. Heavier than anticipated.DAB radio and Bluetooth sound are particularly good.Superb volume range and bass.CD and cassette pretty good too.Disappointed that instructions are not available for download online and reliant solely on the printed details supplied. Have not tried to record on cassette which others have mentioned as a disappointment - personally no need however.Excellent overall and recommend.I did later manage to obtain the instructions from the manufacturers online having sent a request by email.
