The Sony Xplod boombox is the perfect sound machine and it has the ability to read MP3 CD which is something the last Xplod couldn't do. It can play CD-R and CD-RW and tapes even. The thing gets really loud and the bass doesn't distort-it sounds perfect and really makes the music sound so much better. If you are not use to lugging somewhat heavy objects around though its size might intimidate you. But it really isn't too bad at all and you get used to it. For what you get out of it, it's worth lugging around. The unit also has the ability to hook up to digital music players directly! I used it for parties and going to the lake and I am just telling you if you want more bang for the buck or boom for the buck, this is the box for you.
