RCA RP7968 Portable Stereo

Product Description

Put some boom in any room with RCA RP 7968! When you need digital sound in any room - or any place - grab the RCA portable CD system. Its AC/DC versatility means that you can run your player using any AC outlet or optional batteries. With the built-in cassette deck you can play tapes as well as CD's - or record discs onto cassettes. And you can also switch between CD/cassette/AM/FM tuner modes at the touch of a button. Isn't that simple?

Amazon.com Review

Though this little nipper might not have the barking volume and biting features of some of the bigger boomboxes on the market, it's cute enough to make you want to take it everywhere and small enough to easily go with you. Sporting a durable silver plastic casing that's accented in royal blue, the RP-7968 packs a lot of power in an attractive package. The machine has three basic functions: CD player, cassette recorder/player, and AM/FM stereo radio.

The CD player has all the features you'd expect from a model in this category--the ability to pause a track, skip forward and back, and review or cue through individual tracks. In addition, the RP-7968 has a shuffle feature that will randomly pick songs for you. A repeat function allows you to hear one favorite song over and over or to repeat the whole CD. When you use both the shuffle and repeat features together, the RP-7968 continues to play as long as the power holds out. One drawback we discovered was that the unit is surprisingly susceptible to skips when you move it during CD play.

The cassette feature on this unit offers standard playback, as well as recording from either CD or radio. However, it does not offer a built-in microphone or an external microphone jack. The radio portion is limited by manual (as opposed to digital) tuning and a tiny frequency legend, but RCA's Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) helps bring in those hard-to-find stations.

The machine also offers an intuitive Dynamic Bass Boost System (DBBS) button in lieu of Tone, Bass, and Treble knobs. There are two built-in, clear-sounding 4-inch speakers that, at full volume with DBBS, were a little overwhelmed by the internal amplifier. If you'll be using this unit in the den or the workplace, it's likely to have everything you need.

Pros:

Small, lightweight construction
Attractive design
Easy, intuitive operation

Cons:

CD player skips easily when moved
Difficult to find exact frequencies with radio's manual tuner

Not the usual RCA quality.......2004-05-26

I am quite disappointed with this stereo, considering most all of my other RCA products have performed well. The sound is OK, but the radio tuner allows the stations to "fade", requiring constant retuning. The CD player turntable spins, but will no longer read any CD at all. The ac cord connection is a sloppy fit, allowing the power to disconnect at will. Save your money, buy something else.....this unit appears to suffer from poor build quality throughout.

Ok...but you can probably do better if you try!.......2001-12-15

I have had this boombox for a little over a year...at first I thought it was awful! After playing two or three cd's acceptably, it would begin to skip uncontrollably! Then I thought I would use a laser lens cleaner and it worked well for about another ten cd's. With regular lens cleaning it is acceptable.

The sound is not fantastic. It is overwhelmed by any musical flourishes the artist you listen to may care to indulge in! The speakers cannot handle loud sounds...Before you think I am punishing this poor stereo with heavy metal...It becomes screechy with Andrea Bocelli or The Moody Blues!

The radio on mine is quite good. The cassette player/recorder is nice as well. I would have liked a microphone; but I have no complaints in this area.

If you have the opportunity to shop around...buy a slightly better portable stereo. They abound. I did not get around to
returning it while I still had the chance; so I have learned to "work with the cd issues"! Really it is not awful...but it is not very good. Shop around!

Save Your Money!.......2001-08-11

This CD player is the worst piece of junk I have ever purchased. It didn't take long for me to find out how badly made it was either. First of all, the radio doesn't pick up radio stations very well. A station that I used to listen to quite clearly on my old $29.99 radio came in very weakly on this one. I've only had the item seven months and the CD player is broken. The antenna always wobbled and looked very cheaply made. As I was adjusting it one day, it bent and then snapped right off!

This is the most cheaply made item I've ever bought. I had my old $29.99 radio for over ten years. This item is already falling apart in eight months. Don't buy this item unless you want to waste your money.

Overpriced, shoddy sound, flimsy.......2001-06-21

I bought this for my job so I could listen to music while I worked in the warehouse. 3 (three) weeks after I bought it the tape player broke. No problem, I'll just listen to cds, right? Well, that worked for a couple of months. Now it will only play a cd that I *just* opened. After that one play, it skips like it's an old cd. This boom box is not worth [the money]. The sound is tinny in the high range and anything remotely resembling bass makes the speakers make armpit noises. I was not expecting concert-like digital audio type sound, but something better than am radio. As you can tell I wouldn't recommend this one. Go to a store and try one out, and SAVE YOUR RECEIPT! A lesson hard learned.

Great boombox, great value, not for portable use!.......2000-11-13

For a present, I recently got an RCA RP7968 Boombox. Its really great! The RCA has large, easy to use, readable buttons. It plays CD's and cassettes with ease, and it also is very stylish(not as much as some Sony's and Aiwa's, though). Although, there are few downsides. First off, it really is not for portable use. It eats away battery's in no time. In addition, it is pretty heavy for a boombox. I still do reccomment this RCA boombox...as I said in my title it has a great value and great quality, but if you spend a few bucks more, you might be able to find a better one for your needs.

INVENT IT! PHOTO ALBUM KIT.......2006-01-09

I loved this item, but it can no longer be found, unfortunately.
For senior citizens like myself, as well as the younger folks, found this kit to be an easier way to organize our accumulation of photos, at a very reasonable price.
Of course I first used a kit, more than 4 years ago, but can't find them now. I am constantly searching the Internet for them, and will continue to search........

Product Description

The MIL-130A converts without adding repeater count to the network. The unit does not re-time data, nor do it reduce the number of repeaters allowed on the network. This product is fully IEEE 802.3 compliant. The MIL-130A is ideal for connecting older 10BASE5 networks to 10BASE links, or for allowing the network administrator flexibility in choosing what media needs to be connected to 10BASE-T. This device is ideally suited for connecting small 10BASE2 segments to 10BASE-T runs.

Customer Reviews:

Hitachi has taken a step backwards!.......1999-11-18

This unit is barely featured enough to call it a hi8 camcorder. I remember when Hitachi was considered a high end manufacturer but this tells me they want to waller with the Samsungs, Daewoo and other low-end quality companies. The best low dollar hi8 comes from Canon with many features. Hitachi needs to step up to where they were and let the others be.

No stereo!.......1999-11-06

I can't understand how they can call this Hi-8 without a stereo output. Even if the picture is a good as Hi-8, sound is important too! The S-video connector is not compatable with the connector on my capture card. I'm sending mine back!

Product Description

There are pictures to shoot, masterpieces to create. With the DX4330, you'll have the features you'll need to do it all. This is one powerful camera. But don't be fooled - the Kodak EasyShare DX4330 zoom digital camera is also amazingly simple. You'll be impressed with the Indoor/Outdoor LCD as well as the exceptional-quality prints you can create - in sizes up to 11" x 14" (28 cm x 36 cm) enlargements. Plus, with creative settings such as landscape, night, and sports scene modes, you'll get the exact look you want.

Amazon.com Product Description

Powerful and packed with advanced features--yet decidedly easy to use--the Kodak DX4330 offers a 3-megapixel CCD sensor and a 3x optical zoom lens. The DX4330 also features automatic scene modes, a 16 MB internal memory, and a new indoor-outdoor LCD for reviewing your shots in even the sunniest of conditions.

Optics and Resolution
The DX4330 delivers vivid and consistent color images up to 2,160 x 1,400 pixels, which produces print sizes up to 11 by 14 inches. Zoom into the action with a 3x optical zoom, equivalent to 38-114mm in a 35mm camera. When combined with the 3.3x digital zoom, you get a total zoom of 10x. It has an aperture range of f2.8-f5.1 and a shutter speed of 1/2 to 1/1,700 of a second.

Storage and Transfer
The DX4330 is always ready to go with its 16 MB of internal memory, and it can be expanded via MultiMediaCard (MMC) and Secure Digital (SD) memory cards.

The Share button on the back of the DX4330 enables you to tag pictures right on the camera for automatic printing or e-mailing after transferring them to your PC. You can even store up to 32 e-mail addresses in the camera. With the optional Kodak EasyShare camera dock, transferring your pictures from the camera to a PC is as easy as pushing a single button. Also, when docked, the DX4330's batteries are recharged in 2.5 hours or less.

Movie Mode
In movie mode, the DX4330 captures continuous video and audio, which can then be played back via the camera's LCD and built-in speaker. The limited resolution of your movies guarantees that this feature won't replace your camcorder, but it's perfect for when you just want to capture a quick movie and e-mail it to a friend or relative.

More Features
Preview and review your shots easily on the DX4330's 1.8-inch indoor-outdoor LCD, which lets you maintain exceptional viewing quality even in bright sunlight. You can also magnify shots that you review in the LCD by 2x or 4x.

From landscape to sports, easy-to-access scene modes take care of the details so you can consistently get the perfect shot. Use the DX4330's creative modes for even more photo flair.

Power
The DX4330 is powered by a CR-V3 lithium battery (included) or optional NiMH rechargeable batteries that are charged by the optional EasyShare dock. We recommend getting a set or two of rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries and a charger.

Size and Contents
The DX4330 measures 4.4 by 2.6 by 1.9 inches and weighs 7.4 ounces without batteries. This package includes the DX4330 digital camera, CR-V3 lithium battery, AV and USB cables, wrist strap, lens cap and strap, and Kodak EasyShare CD-ROM.

Kodak EasyShare DX4330 3MP Digital Camera w/3x Optical Zoom.......2007-03-20

I had some initial problems with the camera after purchase, and had to return it to Kodak twice for repairs. But since then it has worked fine. I enjoy the Kodak picture program that came with the camera, although it does not offer all the possibilities of the Adobe Photo House program. Camera is convenient and easy to use, and I'm sure it is capable of doing much more than I have discovered to this point.

I LOVE THIS CAMERA! I bought it just over 3 yrs ago after my youngest son was born. It is so easy to use, so much it can do. I did have 1 digital camera before this and to download the pictures I would spend a frustrating 30 minutes every time to get my computer to 'see' it. My husband doesn't like 'complicated' electronics but he will use this. Much to my joy I receive e-mailed pictures from him every couple of weeks (I am currently deployed to Iraq). Since being here a few other people have been interested in buying a digital camera and I HIGHLY recommended a Kodak Easyshare. I actually wish Kodak would start making digital video cameras. This is the next step for video and I would defiantly by one...

Camera ROCKS! Easy, Great Pics, and I LOVE the charging Dock.......2006-01-25

This is the easiest to use digital camera I have ever seen. It has the ability to take movies, and even has different modes (auto, sports, macro, low-light, and ZOOM)... all without making it complicated. That's why this camera is good for beginners and experienced users alike (enough options for many of us, but easy for the novices). It has a 1.8inch viewable LCD. I've found that the cams with bigger screens used up batteries to fast, and those with smaller screens just weren't big enough to see. This camera has INTERNAL MEMORY. A big plus because many digital cameras only rely on memory cards. Also, you have the option of using SD memory cards if you want. They're cheaper than SONY memory stick, more compact that Compact Flash cards, and are so versitile because it's the same size that fits into PDA's such as palm-pilots. This makes it especially handy. The flash is easy to use on this camera and isn't overpowerful like my last camera. It's bright enough without drowning out the image with white flash.

Only drawback is that the Dock is usually sold seperately. I suggest you buy it bundled with the Dock (charges batteries) to save serious $$ on batteries. You can also always use regular AA batteries in a pinch.

A good first Camera........2005-05-08

I am an aspiring photographer. I received this camera as a gift and I like it quite a bit. I've outgrown the camera and am upgrading to the Canon EOS 20D. However, I highly reccommend this camera to beginners. It takes AMAZING landscape photographs. It's light, durable and fun. This would be a good camera for families, as well. I think it's the best camera for beginners.

Some of its downfalls are:
- You cant take on the spot pictures. It takes a second to capture the image. My dog is notorious for turning his head just as I hit the button. Henceforth, this makes it a bad camera for action shots.
- I do photography of a local band and this camera is not very good for photographing indoors in low light.
- The video funtion is pretty much useless, as the sound quality is horrible.
- The lens cap pops right off.

I've had no problems otherwise and have had the camera for almost 2 years. Again, I think this is a great camera. I tried to upload my photography on here, but after spending all the time choosing them, writing captions and such, it had problems and didn't upload them. I'd be happy to share some of them with anyone. I have quite a few that I've made no adjustments to, so you can see how good the quality is. Just drop me an email on here.

great pictures.......2004-11-26

I had 3 digital cameras, that was the first one. I had also casio z40 and kodak ls743. I would never get rid of 4330, but I could not stand battery life.. I had 4 2000mah and I had to charge them all the time.. the other thing was size of this camera , kinda big, and that cover/cap..
But the pictures was incerdibly good, colors were natural, super pix in low light.. I hope I find similar quality camera with diferent kind of battery .
