Radio reception is horrible for both AM and FM One speaker is much louder than the other You have to be at a 90 degree angle to the display to see anything on it. The neon blue background of the display makes it very difficult to even look at. Forget about reading it from more than 4 feet away.
The cd opening cover doesn't open up enough to uncover the entirety of the cd, so you risk scratching your cds every time you put one in it.
There is no real difference in the eq presets, they are all tinny with very little lower frequency support.
The entire unit comes off the stand very easily. Your better off mounting this thing on a wall than sitting it on a counter or night stand.
