This is the modern equivilent to those Light-up radios available in the 1970's. The quality of sound, and level of volume is adequet for my purposes, which was to have in the shop. However, the level of sound output from the AUX input jack was disapointingly low, so I returned the unit for something else.
This would make a great gift for those who like radio or C-D. My needs include MP-3 or Pandora.
