JVC ACTIVE HYPER-BASE CD PORTABLE SYSTEM RC-X720, GOOD CONDITION, WITH REMOTE CONTROL & INSTRUCTIONS BOOKLET


This 1990 'boom box/ghetto blaster' unit was one of the best around at the time and still sounds great.   One owner and well cared for.


The unit comprises a portable CD system with twin speakers and twin cassettes together with an AM/FM radio, and comes complete with original instructions and remote control.   Also power cable and attached, retractable aerial.   The unit with integrated carrying handle can operate as a standalone with batteries.


It is in good condition, working, and clean, although there's a slight indentation to the casing at the top right hand side (caused by a spotlight).


Overall, all key features work perfectly:  CD (as per video), radio/tuner and the twin cassettes, where each deck A & B have Play, Fast Forward, Rewind, Stop/Eject and Pause buttons as well as a Record button.   It should be noted that whilst the Rewind button works perfectly on Deck A, it does not on Deck B (clicks), and it seems the Fast Forward buttons on both Decks struggle to remain depressed without holding down (clicking sound heard).   


However, the sound quality of all features - CD, radio and cassette tape - when in operation remains exceptionally good.


Dimensions:  655 (w) x 240 (H) x 250 (D) mm including knobs
Weight:  7 kg with batteries;  6.2 kg without batteries


Therefore, this could be a vintage unit with quality sound for someone enjoying a breadth of music applications.
