This new one is made of cheaper plastic in places the old Kaboom had a rubber material. Bought similar Kaboom about 10 years ago--it totally rocked. Sound quality is not as good, and I definitely wouldn't expect this one to take a hard fall and not get smashed. Excellent sound and build quality. It was dropped several times and kept working. But still the best of what's out there. It's nice to have the ability to play MP3 discs.
I haven't owned a boombox for quite some time only because they never seemed to sound that great. But this JVC Kaboom box has great sound and power. I would recommend it to my friends.
Other features are manual locks on the cd and cassette deck and remote control. Other musicians who practice in the warehouse where I rent my rehearsal space have actually wondered if it was a band practice upon hearing me play along.
Finding a portable box that has enough power to put out the volume one needs to play drums and still hear the music is no easy task. Thanks to the "Kaboom Box" the task was made much easier.
I am a drummer and I bought this unit with which to play along. I don't have to hold back at all such is the power of this box.
Not only does the "Kaboom Box" have volume to spare, it actually sounds great too. I really enjoy playing along with my favorite cd's.
The fidelity and the bass projection really does mimic a full band. This is a big bookshelf system with an even bigger dynamic sound.
You can add other sources through the connections, but I am totally happy with everything the way it comes out of the box. It had a hard life and I replaced it with this one. I had an older KaBoom box, the first generation. The MP3 capability (off of a CD) is one of the main features I looked for in this type of boom box. I was very happy to see the KaBoom box on Amazon. The RV-NB1 is an awesome piece of equipment. The sound quality is super. A little pricey, but you truly get what you pay for.
Technology is amazing. I bought this boombox expecting quality, but this tops my highest expectations. The sound quality is great; so great that I now use this in my car instead of my car speakers. Really.I use this on rechargeable batteries because I am a Lifeguard, and have taken to using it in my car too.You'll definitely want to buy a charger and some rechargeable batteries if you are using it daily on batteries though, it can burn through them quickly, especially at high volumes.Would definitely recommend to everyone who has $250 to spend on a boombox.
