Philips AZ127 Portable CD Player with Radio, Cassette, Dynamic Bass Boost, Audio-In (3.5 mm), Silver

The CD player part was the only part that didn’t work. Radio and casette was perfect but CD just wouldn’t play anything

Leider hat das Gerät einen englischen Stromanschluß! Absolut äregerlich!!

This little player-Philips AZ 127/05 Silver Portable stereo CD/Cassette, FM Radio is an excellent all-rounder, and was very good value, especially when bought at a very reasonable price and service from a seller on EBay. There is even an input jack socket, with which I can play my Mp3's. Purchased as new, a few weeks ago, the unit has become a valuable part of my portable home entertainment. It also has a very attractive rounded modern designed body. Listened to close-up, about a foot from the front, a stereo image is produced. I also find the volume good enough to cross a medium size room, but a potential purchaser would miss the boominess of a professional hi-fi.Criticisms of the model, not the unit, are that it has a poor lower bass, (although a good, stable, high treble). It does not have a facility to record. You will not get true stereo from greater distances. There is also no headphones socket , nor carrying handle.Thanks Philips,seller, EBay and Amazon for a great, little sale.

Perfect small lightweight radio/CD/tape player (for me); top loading cd player makes it easy to use. I haven’t tried it on batteries, so can’t comment on that. I bought it from Amazon Haul- yes the box had a bit of damage but the player was perfect.

What I like about about this neat little machine is the shuffle function, so I can listen to my jazz cds with the numbers played in a varied order. I'm also pleased about the tape deck, which means my valued casettes are usable again.As to volume and sound quality, well its a very modest player so you can't expect a lot in that department. But I was pleasantly surprised that the sound is not seriously tinny, the player has a smooth, pleasing tone and quite good volume. The extra bass function adds little and isn't worth bothering about. (The radio I don't use.)If you install 6 x R14 batteries, you can carry the player into the garden by means of the cavity handle, the CD continues to play even when the player is carried on its side.This player is OK for an average room where you dont need a huge blast, Im glad I got mine, it fits my requirement. Am nevertheless upset, the Amazon price went down by 10 quid on the day it arrived. I call this player good value
