I enjoy my own music via CD PLAYER and feel young again in my old age and the sound is fine. The device is also good in terms of appearance. It was also easy to install the channels. I now enjoy every day and it makes me happy and that is a nice price.

Apart from the mediocre reception, the sound quality is the biggest problem, very shrill sound with little to no bass.
