841.670 Chaplin Turntable

The faultlines of poorly manufactured overseas products and the Ancient Continent of Quality have rubbed together a lot in my life. They have let go and slipped with this product, so it gets about a 6.5 on my scale of disgust. The cabinet is p-board. The turntable, radio and tape work. So far the CD has never worked. If you lose the remote for this baby, nothing will work. And my Sis spent a lot of $$ for this product. But I'll have to take vacation and my money to repack the nonworker in its monster box, then go to Fedex or UPS and stand in line, and spend money to send it back and get another????. And all I see is a tsunami of more of this kind of stuff washing over me.

The system, even though it looks great, has a very "tinny" sound. You can get better sound from an older Fisher Price child's system! There are no extra audio auxillary connections to connect it with a better sound system. My advice? Save your $$$ and invest in better equipment. I received this as a Xmas gift & after listening to it have not since turned it on. If you are looking for a "nostalgic" looking system check out the Crosley products. Same looks and better sound with the extra audio connection option on most. Thanks Santa, but you goofed. Glad I didn't spend my money on it. You would think RCA would have a better sounding product.
