Sony CFD-S70 cassette boombox - user review with sound test

[@jamespassas9441]

I've got a black one of these. How many sequential radio presets does it have, do you know (apart from the 3 buttons)?

[@railway187]

Only these 3 as far as I know. I have sold it in the mean time and now I have a Teac cassette deck.

[@joistein]

IMO this sounds bad, i got the Panasonic RX-D 55A that is much better than the Sony.

[@Supersammy22-1gv7ej2j]

I prefer playing a cd on a ps1 ps2 xbox or even a sega cd console cuz when I played a cd on a bombox I had 2 from sony The freaking disc Seem to like stop the music on the middle of the song Automatically I'd like to take the disc out and put it back in. And it still said No cd In my opinion boom boxes are not worth that at all for cds cassettes maybe

[@emmafredriksen1543]

Does it stops the cassettes automatically?

[@railway187]

I think it does, but honestly, I don't have it anymore. It is a great device, but I have a Teac Tape Deck now, which is much better (and more expensive as well).

[@redtiger6047]

I bought one and was disappointed with the sound quality.

[@moove995]

Unfortunately, this machine speeds up tapes and idk how to regulate it, so if anybody had this boombox and have any suggestions, I'm in.

[@Jana-x1n5h]

How would you make an adjustment for continuous play of the cd?

[@railway187]

I don't think that's possible on this player. Thanks for watching 🙏👍🙋‍♂️

[@mgofficial5470]

It’s a amazing boombox but mine lasted a year probably still have it but now it’s giving me problems with cds like skipping now I gotta buy a new one soon

[@7amoudi5]

Is good for convert my old tapes? And what about tape noise in record

[@railway187]

There is a vit of tape noise, which you can reduce in Audacity later. However in the mean time I also have bought a Teac AD-850 and I think the quality for converting tapes is better.

[@7amoudi5]

@@railway187 can you send me any mp3 file that you converted by cdfs70?

[@7amoudi5]

@@railway187 Plese!

[@railway187]

@@7amoudi5 I have sold the CFD-S70 a few months ago. I have the Teac tape deck now.

[@cjsilvestremusic]

Can it play wav and flac cds?

[@Wra8h]

Is there a port for a USB stick to play music?

[@amiya19277]

I have black model.

[@yannisgk]

i intend to buy one for digitising my tapes into a mac. does it support continuous playback ??? (a to b side and stop?) thanks!!!

[@railway187]

No, there’s no continuous connection playback. Thanks for watching! For daily usage it’s great, for digitalising tapes I would rather go for a Teac deck, for instance AD-850

[@brianbivins7371]

I am strange but I love Boomboxes from late 90's and early 00's I have a Sony S2 zs-x10 as my daily driver my ears are not that discerning so it is perfect for me I never been into hifi. I want to get that boombox because mine is AM/FM Radio and CD Player I want something I can Bluetooth to as well as play cassettes so I can start collecting them like I do CD's.

[@GeminiNES]

Whatkind of battaries does it use?

[@railway187]

six batteries type C - I never use it on batteries however

[@GeminiNES]

@@railway187 thnx for the reply, i bought it for my aunt a year ago, she now called and asked me if this model had a battery slot and whatkind of battaries it would use. Since i couldn't answer straight away i started to look up for some reviews heh, she is dressed out about that ukraine/russia conflict atm, thats why she wanted to know, could she use it without electricity, thanks to you i can now give her the answer.

Hi Erik, this was a very interesting test of the SONY Boombox, its years since I heard a tape and was surprised how good the sound was. CDs normally have clearer sounds but I could not notice much difference. The sounds through the Soundcard was also very good. Thanks for showing this. Cheers, Paul.

[@railway187]

Hi Paul, The difference is in the higher tones but to my ears that difference is hardly noticeable 😁 However cheap cassette players can have a lot of wow and flutter and even my ears can notice that 🙂🙃 Nevertheless, I adore cassettes and I have purchased quite a lot… Thanks for watching 👍 Greetings, Erik 🙋‍♂️
