Portable CD Boombox with Bluetooth and AM/FM Radio

The Nextron CB-500BT is a compact all-in-one audio system for listeners who want physical media and wireless streaming in a single device. It plays standard CDs, CD-R and CD-RW discs along with MP3 and WMA files, and its Bluetooth receiver streams audio from phones, tablets or laptops. The digital AM/FM tuner stores 20 AM and 30 FM presets for quick station access.

Stereo Speakers with Bass Boost and Battery Power

Front-firing 3-inch stereo speakers deliver balanced sound, while the Bass Boost button adds low-frequency depth when desired. The unit runs on the included AC cord or six C batteries for portable use, weighing 1288 grams and measuring 23.3 by 20.8 by 11.4 centimetres. No fan or active cooling is present, so operation remains silent during playback.

USB Playback, AUX Input and Headphone Jack

A USB port reads MP3 and WMA files from FAT32-formatted flash drives up to 128GB, though NTFS drives are not supported. The 3.5mm AUX input connects wired sources and the headphone jack enables private listening; neither a 3.5mm cable nor headphones are supplied. Shuffle, repeat, program and resume modes plus a clear LCD display complete the control set.

Questions about this item

How do I power the CB-500BT for the first time, and what do people forget?

Plug the included AC cord into mains or insert six C batteries; the step people miss is that batteries are not supplied with the unit.

What ongoing upkeep does the boombox need?

Replace the six C cells when playback weakens or distortion appears; no other user-serviceable parts are inside.

What limits USB playback during long sessions?

The USB port only reads FAT32-formatted drives up to 128GB and does not support NTFS, so larger or differently formatted sticks will not play.
