KLIM Boombox B4 CD Player Portable Audio System + AM/FM Radio CD Player MP3, Bluetooth, AUX, USB + Wired/Wireless mode, Rechargeable Battery + Remote Control, Autosleep, Digital EQ + NEW

Great sound and very portable

The media could not be loaded. I have to say I’m genuinely impressed by this budget boombox. It isn’t perfect, it’s doubtful it’ll win any prizes, but it does have a tiny heart of gold and is packed full of features. It just takes a bit of getting used to.First off, it’s a quirky set of features – a CD player, AM/FM radio (how quaint!), USB playback and Bluetooth and aux speaker. I do still have CDs so for me it’s quite useful, even without DAB.When you switch on, it defaults to playing FM radio, which is one of the many quirks you will notice, and get used to, when you start to use it. For both FM and AM radio, you do an automatic scan and it populates preset stations as it finds them - again you don’t really get a say over how this is managed, it just does it for you. When I scanned both, I ended up with 24 preset FM stations and 8 AM presets. Tho I barely listen to either these days.The CD player works really well and I would say is the best feature. It would perhaps be more useful if it defaulted to this rather than to the radio on start-up. Nevertheless, I found both the control of the music and the quality of the output itself to be extremely satisfying. There are a range of preset equaliser options (again it defaults to “flat” on startup) but I found the Jazz setting to be a good all-rounder.The whole unit is rechargeable which is a really nice touch, so you can have a CD player without a mains lead that you can take around the house with you if you so wish. There is also a remote control which covers most of the major functions of the unit.The whole thing comes packaged in a smart box which would be perfectly adequate for gifting. It also has a five-year warranty which should give some peace of mind. The only reason I’m voting it down one star is that on the Bluetooth setting there is a quiet, yet noticeable, whine and hiss from the unit. Budget or not, this really shouldn’t be there.Nevertheless, overall this is a really lovely little player which offers a very acceptable level of sound quality at a budget price. Its features are a bit unusual and awkward in this day and age but no doubt someone out there will need this combination!

"Music is life" they say and this is what exactly I think. When I listen to music I am alive.Funny to say but this CD player has changed my daily routine, I feel much happier. I put it upstairs in my bedroom and every time I go there (to give my children a shower, before going to bed, while I have a shower, while I clean and make the beds..) I listen to music. My children love it too. We listen to music, we dance, and I think less, I am distracted by the music and feel more relaxed. This is essential for me now.Excellent quality, it has a radio but CD player too. The volume gets quite high and I love it, my neighbor I don't think does 😄!Easy to use and quite intuitive just looking at it.Very good reception, clear sound.It has a handle to be carried around and a remote control if needed.Very happy with it, highly recommended.

This boom box came with no uk 3 pin plug it was not mentioned in the description. Also when fitted with a adapter and plugged in smoke came out the back. I would not recommend it.

This isn’t a bad little portable sound unit for the price and arrived well packaged with all security seals intact.I was looking for something to play music when working in the garage and this fits the bill nicely.I have used all of the sound functions (AM, FM, CD, Bluetooth, USB) and they all work as expected.Sound quality is okay, but not brilliant as you would expect at this price point.. The sound level is fairly low, so I have it near maximum most of the time. There is also a noticeable improvement when the speakers are pointing straight at you. I noticed this when I moved it from down near the floor up to head height. Sound quality can also be improved slightly by cycling through the preset equaliser settings (pop, jazz, classic, rock).One frustrating thing is that there is no way to change between folders when playing MP3s from a USB stick. There is also nothing on the display to identify the track. It searches through all the subfolders on the USB stick and the first MP3 it finds is ‘1’, the second ‘2’ etc. If you have several albums on one USB stick this makes it difficult to find the album you want to play. I’m mainly using it to play music from my phone via Bluetooth, so it’s not a problem but it could be frustrating if you use the MP3 player mostly.The remote control works well and is responsive but you can’t turn the player on or put it in standby with the remote. This can only be done by pressing the volume control on the player itself.Another annoying thing is that the play mode is reset every time it is switched off. Each time it is switched on it defaults to FM radio. You then have to cycle through the modes to the one you want. The equaliser is also reset every time you switch the unit off. It would be more convenient if it remembered the mode and equaliser settings.It is supplied with a mains cable but also has a built-in rechargeable battery. It is quite light, so it really is very portable. It would be ideal if you want music whilst out and about at picnics etc. A full charge takes about five hours.The description of this unit also says it has RGB lighting built into the speakers. It does not, so if this is a feature you’re looking for you will be disappointed. I think this part of the product description has been cut and pasted from the description of another player from the same manufacturer.This is a cheap and cheerful music player which can play music from various sources and it is probably priced correctly at £49. I have knocked off a couple of stars for the lack of navigation when playing MP3s from a USB stick and the fact that it doesn’t remember what settings you last used when it is switched off.

good size portable audio box, holds charge well and bluetooth link is good no lost connections, sound quality for a small box is really good, good bass and nice and loud, the radio signal is great too, overall very good value

Not a good product , sound very tinny , EQ preset does not work , overall very flimsy
