It's the best. I highly recommend this boombox to anyone who loves a solid quality chassis and awesome sound quality.
The problem I see is that the middle-range sounds are very subdued. But hey, who buys a boombox to listen to the radio. Bass power is amazing and at times excessive.
Another major issue is it's weak radio reception in FM diapason. And for the dance music that it's designed for, it's a wonderful unit. Only the most powerful stations will give you acceptable sound and won't be drowned in noise.
This unit stands out of the crowd of all other boom boxes I've come across. I wish JVC used front speakers with larger diameter cones to compensate for this. Not perfect, but so far the best I've found.
But it can be turned down, so that's not an issue. The front speakers are not powerful enough and too small to match the bass power in the mid-tone range.
I find the radio very good. If you like big sound,then stop looking. This unit CRANKS love it. I have a distant station I love and many other radios cant't pick it up,but the Kaboom does it well. Super power Bass. You will need a power supply and inverter for this bad boy.
However, the new RVNB20 is the latest and greatest. It has all the hookups you could need to play your favorite music. In 1980 I bought a JVC RCM70JW BoomBox. Big Bass & Clear highs. Super product. I will pass it on to the grand kids. It still works great.
If you want something conviently portable, move on - this isn't for you.If you want to annoy everyone in a 50 yard radius on the beach this is for you - but remember the spare batteries. This sucker is heavy and bulky to carry. I think this is the best sounding boombox of any boombox I've listened to. But be aware that it takes a lot of batteries and large magnets in the speakers to make good loud music and this adds to the weight of the unit.
