This is the Sony CFD-S05 listed under a description rather than a name. I have had it for several weeks and it does exactly what I need it to. I have it sitting on my desk so that I can listen to a CD, tape or the radio while I am working or moving around. I have used all three media and I love it. The sound is good, and all of the controls are on the front and are at my fingertips. I particularly like being able to set my CDs to repeat so that I don't need to be bothered pressing the "start" button unnecessarily. Since I am in a small space I don't play the unit loudly so am not concerned with the volume that it will crank out. The specifications sheet states that the CD player produces sound in the 20HZ to 20,000KHz range, but I am sure that the small speakers don't produce that range. However, you might get it from good headphones. Still, it is pleasant and more than acceptable. I have played a range of types of music on the CD player and listened to two hours of Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion on tape. I initially tried to play a decades-old cassette tape on it and found it difficult to close the tape player lid. However, I had no such problem with new tapes. A couple of things that could be improved include having the headphone input on the front of the unit, and having a larger indicator for the CD play mode (such as repeat, shuffle or random play) -I need to use a magnifying glass to read the setting. However, I find this to be a good unit and heartily recommend it.

It has sharp, clear sound, even with headphones. Small enough to travel with yet large enough for a great sound. Very versatile, since it plays CD's, cassetes, and radio

Want Sony Portable Digital Tuner AM/FM Radio Tape Cassette Recorder & CD Player Mega Bass Reflex Stereo Discount?

I needed something that could pull in distant FM stations, play some of my many old cassette tapes, and of course, the occasional CD audio disc. Plus, I wanted something that did not sound tinny because of its small sized speakers. This unit fills the bill perfectly! I am very pleased with the sound quality and versatility of this Sony product. Thank you for offering it for a convenient sale.

While the Sony's design is attractive and most functions deliver what they're supposed to, overall the unit is overpriced. Radio reception in stereo or monaural is nice and clear, but the station presetting (and subsequent selection of a preset) suffers from poor instructions and poorer execution; after four or five tries, following the instructions implicitly, I could not get the unit to 'accept' more than one radio preset. On the CD side (I haven't used the tape feature), all the features you would expect are there: shuffle, play a tune over, etc. Not interested. However, I was happy to see the unit had a 'MegaBass' feature -until I used it. It's a complete joke, there is NO bass response, mega or otherwise, in this unit. Sony engineers should get their hearing checked, then get together with the design department to figure out the appropriate wording for their products' features. This is a nice little radio with fairly acceptable sound, nothing more.
