Philips AZ1316

Got a nice Philips AZ1316 CD Soundmachine today for $20.

It has:
-DBB bass boost
-casssette deck
-CD player
-plays CD's/CD-RW/MP3 CD's
-digital tuning for the radio
-Bass Reflex Speaker System

The sound quality with DBB on is awesome-lots of bass and loud.

Sure a good sounding "box".
The DBB was always strong at PHILIPS.

To sad about the missing classic style and the SpatialStereo.
But time is moving on....

Thanks for the comments about my Philips.

I like the fact it plays MP3 files that have been recorded to a CD, yet while having a tape deck to play back any of my cassettes.

Thanks for the links to the specs and user manual, devol-toni.

And here's a photo of the internals:

it came apart very easily to let me take the internal photo-philips head screws are used in this Philips boombox .

On some older Philips boombox models, Torx screws were used.

That's a simple design, electronics sure have shrunk over the last 25 years.
