I still have a boombox from when I was in HS in the early 1990s. Yes it still works.

@Jason787 Месяц назад

My first music system was a portable mono Philips tape deck with radio. I was given it around the age of 9, i am 49 now and still have it and it still works.

@ArthurJS123 Месяц назад

Those flashing lights would drive me insane. Just too much.

@TorontoJon Месяц назад

Yeah, I think you can switch them off though.

@Recordology Месяц назад

Yes.

@DvdXploitr Месяц назад

I wish they would release a new 8-track deck...even if it's just cassette, 8-track and radio..no CD and no vinyl....bring back 8-track!

@pervertedalchemist9944 Месяц назад

I like the analog tuning. This is something you rarely see on new audio equipment - be it cheap or expensive.

@TonyBanks21 Месяц назад

So you invite people to click away from your channel-but I'm not going anywhere !! I enjoy your channel-and I note you now have a dedicated room to feature your products !! I also enjoy you as a person-and the things you stand for-even outside of RU-vid !! Now back to this featured product-very sad that they don't feature a cassette deck on this product,I would also like to see a USB/SD Card recording(encoding)facility !! So perhaps the previous model would be more favourable to me !!!!

@TonyBanks21 Месяц назад

What a pity,they don’t seem to make a retro boombox with a Minidisc Deck built in too !!!! Minidisc soon became my favourite media format-after having acquired a small minidisc system in 1999 !!

@TonyBanks21 Месяц назад

They need to make a system that can play everything-CD,Cassette Tape,Minidisc,8 Track & Vinyl Records(of all types and speeds)+ the ability to play and record all of these onto MP3 and other modern music formats-including Bluetooth !!

@TorontoJon Месяц назад

Yes, Studebaker makes excellent audio products. I don't own any of them yet, but boy, do I want them. Haha! They truly are gems that not only look great, but sound great. It's win-win. Thanks for another excellent in-depth review, Record-ology. :)

@Recordology Месяц назад

Thank you!

@rwj777 Месяц назад

I've been waiting so long for someone to finally do a review on this boombox. I've been thinking about purchasing this for a while, but I've always been undecided, due to the lack of reviews, besides seeing them on QVC and HSN. The problem with them is that they are paid to say all the positives about a product to sell it, but someone buying this with their own money will give a honest review about the product. Long story short, I'm thinking about actually purchasing this one for myself , thanks to watching your review. Great job on the demonstration of this boombox Record-ology 👌🏾

@peterjohnpj2778 Месяц назад

great video and a good product and interesting cheers

@jhonwask Месяц назад

looks interesting. I think I want one.

@Rafma89 Месяц назад

Cool! The tape deck boom box caught my eye! 🧐

@Recordology Месяц назад

I love it!

@53doowopbill Месяц назад

My 1st boombox was Kaboom if you remember those....great sound.

@shonstewart4957 Месяц назад

Amazing buddy I am floored if I did not already have a player and it could set player I would snag this Yep

@steveweinberg462 Месяц назад

A handsome radio, and as hollow handles bother the heck out of me, I appreciate that. Seems to sound nice. Is there a way to leave the dial light on but have the lightshow off? Also, did you check if the tweeters are functional? On many of these radios they're decorative. I see on the Studebaker site it's listed as a "3 speaker system," which only increases my concern.

@gregsnarke610 Месяц назад

Yes I do to like 👍 retro style

@rwj777 3 дня назад

Well about a month later after me finally deciding to purchase this boombox, I now have to return it, because it crapped out on me, only having it for about 3 weeks. I'm so disappointed, because I was absolutely loving the sound quality that this boombox can push out for the size. The lows were really full and punchy with very clean highs. Today I decided that I wanted to play some music on it , just to experience only the speaker lights coming on solid without any other signs of life from the boombox. The FM tuner is dead , CD player is dead and the Bluetooth functions are totally unresponsive. This is the second Studebaker boombox that I've purchased over the last couple of years. The first one that I purchased was the Sound Station version with the cassette player and that one was also defective, being the CD player only played through the left speaker and the cassette deck would eat tapes from time to time, which made me stop using it all together. Now I'm back to using my old Sony HCD - Z x 9 that works perfectly fine considering its age. I wanted something more portable with deep rich sound, which is why I bought this boombox , I've gotten burned twice with this brand and I probably will not be buying anything from Studebaker anytime soon. Hopefully you are having better luck with your boomboxes than what I had with both of mine. Great video as always. Keep up the good work. 👍

@Recordology 3 дня назад

So sorry to hear that! I appreciate you watching and commenting. Have a great day!

@johnmarchington3146 Месяц назад

Wow! What a unit. Perhaps you can buy a tiny tin of touch-up paint for that scratch. I'd be a bit annoyed about that too.

@peterjohnpj2778 Месяц назад

with the studebaker do they sell a lot of units and say if you purchase the cassette/cd model and the battery can the be repaired ?????????????

@Bucky749 Месяц назад

We all have boom box’s there’s three in the house one the garage dad uses one in my room one in moms room that’s on of the portable ones .

@HadesTimer Месяц назад

Amazon suggests you should pair batteries with this. Amazon knows what's up, you need to have batteries you can actually add and remove for a boombox. ;) Great video man, looks like a cool device and at the price, it seems like a good deal.

@stanleycostello9610 Месяц назад

I get seizures. Flashing lights, disco balls and even houndstooth patterns on fabrics can trigger an onset. I'm glad that you put up a strobe warning when you test speed accuracy.

@Recordology Месяц назад

Oh my! Good to know!

@DriveInFreak 29 дней назад

I'd love one of these, but I'm an AM broadcaster, and there's no AM tuner. Bummer.

@Trashkhan Месяц назад

Nice box... my only concer is with those top loading CD players... I have never been lucky with those (failing afeter a couple of years)... Cheers !

@soder0318 Месяц назад

Good to hear this boombox includes a little function with its form! Would’ve been neat if it actually borrowed some styling cues from the real Avanti (the car that tried to save Studebaker!) As a lover of all things retro, you may find the story of the car’s designer- Raymond Loewy- interesting. He also designed Coca-Cola’s iconic bottle. I think I need to ask for some of your 45 adapters as a Father’s Day gift🤔😉!

@TorontoJon Месяц назад

That's neat and many years ago, I saw Avanti cars on display by their owners as part of a 3,000-classic car show in London, Ontario, Canada. Adam West, Julie Newmar, George Barriss (designer of the original Batmobile, etc.), much of the cast of George Lucas' 'American Graffiti', and cast members of 'The Dukes of Hazzard' (as well as a number of General Lee cars) were special guests at those annual car shows. :)

@Recordology Месяц назад

Out here in Orlando we have the worlds largest car collection / museum "Dezerland" they have an entire Batman car room with every variant of the batmobile (some screen used) and also the Bat Boat, and the Bat Bike / Cycle. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0SMbUhj7aVg.html

@TorontoJon Месяц назад

@@Recordology, cooooooool. :)

@That70sKid Месяц назад

There's no AM radio because it has Bluetooth. The Bluetooth signal jams AM reception. It doesn't affect FM reception.

@Recordology Месяц назад

Hmmmm interesting. Bt uses 2400 to 2483.5 MHz so you wouldnt think it would impede AM bands.

@TonyBanks21 Месяц назад

I didn’t realise that !!

@That70sKid Месяц назад

@@Recordology It's not the frequency that Bluetooth uses that interferes with AM reception, it's the electromagnetism generated by the Bluetooth circuitry.

@CoolDudeClem Месяц назад

In my opinion,m a boombox isn't a boombox unless it has a cassette deck built in! But then my mind is stuck in the 80's and can't adapt to 21st century ways.

@MatthewBrannigan Месяц назад

Ooh that little scratch annoyed me, it looked fab other than that. You might have to go rooting thru the mrs' nail polish drawer to find a match to touch that up!

@vksjd Месяц назад

Thanks for the review. Can you shuffle songs on a USB drive, and are there actual tweeters, not just fake ones?

@Recordology Месяц назад

Yes and yes! Real tweeters - specs are in the manual.

@vksjd Месяц назад

@@Recordology , very cool! Thank you for the answer.

@drsysop Месяц назад

Will it play mp3 CD's? What happens if you have media in all inputs will it change or you have to remove a media input?

@Recordology Месяц назад

Yes it will. It goes in order, CD>USB>aux.

@geertvanpee9935 Месяц назад

Hi Record-ology, concerning the volume control thing: as far as I know, the volume control is no real potentiometer when you can turn the control forever in one direction. For example on the Victrola Revolution Go: even if the volume is at maximum or minimum, you still can turn the volume control towards maximum or minimum. So it is no real potentiometer on that one. If it was a real potentiometer, you would not be able to turn it towards maximum if the volume is at maximum and the same for minimum.

@Recordology Месяц назад

This one actually stops in either direction.

@geertvanpee9935 Месяц назад

@@RecordologyYeah so, the one on your boombox is a real potentiometer I guess ...

@bassmandanmartin3700 Месяц назад

Is it a normal CD player, or bufferred? Like if you play Abbey Road, does it pkay the medley okay, or does it spin up, read each song, then spit it back out??

@Recordology Месяц назад

I think they all buffer to ram now. Some you can turn that (anti skip) off and it becomes 1:1.

@Greg-et2dp Месяц назад

Record ology your RU-vid videos are awesome my friend

@danielthomas3057 Месяц назад

It is a nice unit however the flickering lights would drive me batty. It would be much better if it had separate selector for CD, Aux input and USB.

@FunFiEmpire Месяц назад

Thank you, I worked very hard on it. 😜Just kidding no relation.

@Madness832 Месяц назад

I still find it funny that they've released those under a defunct car brand

lol

@russgladstone432 Месяц назад

Patiently waiting for you to turn up the bass and treble and then crank it up to see what it can really do… what a let down !!!, can only guess its not as good as we thought when pushed…. Shame…. I’ll dig out my trusty OLD Panasonic XBS, P,S, i must order one of them Sound Burgers, best bit of the video,,, but not the record selection.

@Bucky749 Месяц назад

Those make want to break out my Hank the cow dog audio book on cassette or the Star Wars audio book I have on cassette. . Or Lionel Richie.

The price point on this brands not for me flashy stuff is out I'm a epileptic i like my Jenson MCR 1500 it does take batteries no bt but i don't need bt have on other things but 24 watt speaker and double cassette 99 on Amazon but this is cool looking cd too I'm loving sound has a bass boost

@Greg-et2dp Месяц назад

Record ology to bad ther is no mw on the stude Baker Boombox my friend

@codebeat4192 Месяц назад

Hmmm, I don't know..... It looks very plastic and the dial is the same as other made in china bb's. I really don't like the stupid annoying flashing lights, it would be nice if there was also a "solid" ON mode. Love to see the inside, I guess it all made with of the shelf made parts. I think this unit is a good start to make some mods, for example an alluminium dial plate, changing the dial needle, removing the tweeter lights, adding some grills or fabric to the tweeters, adding alluminium knobs. But actually I don't think this is a quality unit and not worth the purchase.

@01chippe Месяц назад

Those lights are extremely annoying.

@Ken_Dodds_Tickling_Stick Месяц назад

Sorry, but they look cheap and horrible. I have my Sharp GF 8989E, i bought brand new in 1981 and still works perfectly.

@intromortti Месяц назад

Studebaker Avanti was an american sports car that was made in years 1962-1963. Somewhat stupid that they use that name in product that has nothing in common with that car.

@StevenS757 Месяц назад

Well the brand name was sold and resold through multiple companies until it landed with this current company. If you own a name, you might as well do something with it

@dougbrowning82 Месяц назад

Well, you could buy the car with an AM radio factory installed. No AM in the boom box.

@TorontoJon Месяц назад

It's an homage to Studebaker's classic cars. There's nothing wrong with that given that Studebaker doesn't make cars anymore (Not since 1966), although, I don't think the Avanti is a particularly beautiful sportscar; not compared to other classic or current sportscars. It's a bit of an oddity car-wise.

@intromortti Месяц назад

@@TorontoJon Studebaker Avanti was a beautiful car. It was different than Corvette, and that was good. I can't see any homage in this, when there is nothing in that device what reminds from that car.

@intromortti Месяц назад

@@TorontoJon If they would do new Avanti with modern tech, but still somewhat resembling the original from outside, that would be some kind of homage.

@misterx420 Месяц назад

Studebaker was an auto manufacturer. Not audio. Some Chinese companies are just using what ever US company names they can get their grubby hands on without even checking to see what they actually made. What's next? An Edsel boombox? 🙄

@Recordology Месяц назад

Spectra Merchandising is based in Chicago. They own the Studebaker (and Jensen) brand now.
