I live in a country with 220 V AC supply and looked to see if there was a power select switch - I didn't find one but should have looked further. There is a caution to connect to correct power supply, however many people are used to devices selecting input power automatically (eg shavers). Overall fair value for the price but spoiled by scanty operating instructions. The sound volume can be turned up to boombox loud with good fidelity.

It is for direct MP3 voice recording to USB drive or SD card, a nice feature.īecause the radio tuning scale is quite recessed, the FM band tuning scale at the top of the chassis cannot be read unless you view it at eye level. I tried that and realized my mistake before causing any damage.

The hole labeled "MP3 MIC" is not for inserting a microphone jack. Make sure that you have a backup copy on another device for any MP3 file that you want to play or record to the cassette tape. It took me a long time to go through each step of the MP3 functions to familiarize myself with them but I would still need my marked-up instructions for anything involving MP3, SD card, and USB (the instructions say "U") functions, the controls of which are so closely grouped at the bottom front of the unit that I managed to inadvertently delete my MP3 files several times from my USB drive and SD card while trying to figure out how the MP3 functions work. Why would I play music on a cassette tape in order to record from MP3 to tape? That's why I think that "Tape" and "MP3" are reversed. Those instructions refer to non-existent button labels, grammatical errors ("record" instead of "recorded"), confusing wording, apparently reversed words ("Tape" and "MP3") and I'm still not 100% sure of that. That section of the instructions is poorly written.

The unit is nice but I almost returned it because of the difficulty in figuring out how to use the MP3 functions. Nice unit but MP3 instructions are confusing and use of MP3 functions is not intuitive
