Our take on the Sony ZS-H10CP

by Ralph Graves

If you're on the go in the great outdoors, here's one CD boombox that can keep up the pace. Sony's ZS-H10CP features a rugged, durable case with water- and dust-resistant seals. The lid for the built-in CD player forms an airtight seal to keep it safe from the elements, while the sturdy handle doubles as a protective bar to shield the lid from falling items. Control knobs are large for easy operation — even if you're wearing gloves.

In addition to regular CDs this boombox also plays MP3 CDs, so you can enjoy several dozen hours of music with just a couple of discs. The 'H10CP's built-in digital AM/FM tuner give you even more listening options. Whether you're listening to discs or radio, the 'H10CP delivers your music in full sound with deep, rich bass.

    Sony ZS-H10CP

    Written By Fred R, Las Cruces, New Mexico on Tuesday, April 16, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I was surprised at the size of the unit, expecting a much smaller radio. Definitely construction site material and the sound was awesome. The color of the radio was very appealing and you will definitely not forget where you put it, color and sound. CD compartment well sealed to provide protection for your CDs and the player itself. Bought this as a birthday present for my son and I almost decided to keep it for myself, I will order another one just for me.
    Pros:
    Great sound, easy to operate, and priced way below other similar products out there.
    Cons:
    None

    Happy customer

    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    My husband and I have always had a "boombox" for the garage/patio that we used whenever we were outside. After about 15 years, our boombox finally died. We don't use MP3 players or IPODs (but may soon) so finding a boombox that played CDs and had an AM/FM radio in addition to the MP3 connection was important. I picked this one because it is meant for a harsher environment than inside of a home. I gave it to my husband for his birthday, and he couldn't be happier. The sound is great and there are very few cracks and crevices for dirt/dust to get in. Ordering from the website was easy and shipping was fast.

    Written By William C., Cleveland, Ohio on Monday, December 05, 2011
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I purchased this boombox from Crutchfield. My main reasons for ordering it were 1) it received good reviews and 2) it was able to play mp3 files. I use this boombox at work. I make eight to twelve hour long CD's in the mp3 format at home and play them, at work, in shuffle mode, for nine hours a day, six days a week. I've used this boombox every work day for the last several years and at always works FLAWLESSLY!
    Pros:
    I was impressed by the quality of construction. The CD door has an "O" ring seal to keep out dust and liquids. For me, that is an important feature. It also displays the rock group name and song name.
    Cons:
    I have no complaints.

    Dollar for dollar I am totally happy with this Sony Radio. It performs well, its easy to carry about and sounds good. The only thing missing is a remote control....which would pushed my opinion to a 5.

    Good looking & durable

    Written By DB, New Jersey on Wednesday, July 06, 2011
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Using it in the garage right now. Bought it primarily for camping. Sound quality is what you would expect from a Sony boombox- great. AUX input is a great feature, but iPod/USB input would make it perfect. AC adapter (laptop style) is very awkward for a boombox of this type- the radio is heavy enough that the transformer could have been mounted inside the unit. The shell seems like it will hold up nicely. All buttons are of the sealed rubber type, typical of the past Sony Sports boomboxes (from the 80's). The over-sized volume knob gives excellent control. Unit is quite large, so take note of the dimensions prior to ordering. All in all, it's a versatile boombox that I hope to have for a while.

    As always, Crutchfield had super fast delivery & superb customer service. Thanks again Crutchfield.

    Bought this thing to keep in the camper and use on float trips. After a couple trips it has held up good to the water and a bunch of drunks. Can't speak for the longevity, but I don't forsee any problems. Would definately recommend this one!

    Good choice in an increasingly limited

    Written By Andy, Kensington, MD on Sunday, September 21, 2008
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    It's really hard to find a good boombox these days. There are some really mediocre models made by - well, I won't mention any particular brands, but in some cases the 90 day warranty life is all too often just a little shorter than the functional life.

    This model is reasonably sturdy. I wouldn't just toss it into the bed of a pick-up and go off-roading - I would expect that a fall off a picnic table might do some damage - but the controls and speakers are protected against the usual everyday "slings and arrows", such as switches rubbing against car door or cats sharpening their claws on speaker fabric (this unit uses metal grates which might dent a little but won't tear.)

    But at the risk of repeating myself, a good boombox has become a rarity.

    Most similar units are geared towards I-Pods these days. And you can plug in your I-Pod if you desire, as well as all manner of devices, given the proper adapter/cord(s). It works great with a laptop.

    I only gave this unit four stars for two minor reasons.

    (1) The radio reception is good, but not outstanding.

    (2) Given that this is a largish unit, it would be nice if Sony had just given it a decent guage AC cord instead of the transformer-plug-with-a-flimsy-cord that is provided. All in all, I would recommend this unit as a portable or even a "bookshelf" surrogate.

    Durable and sounds great.

    Written By richard, NW Indiana on Tuesday, June 03, 2008
     
    Bought this unit to keep out by the pool as we tired of having to bring our old one in every night. Located the box under an overhang, still gets some rain on it during heavy downpours but has no affect with the operation of the box. MP3, CD and FM are all outstanding. The antenae never needs to be deployed for FM reception. Sound quality is very good for this type of unit and is capable of getting quite loud for those *party* nights.
    Nice unit for rough use.

    Great Boom Box

    Written By Patrice, Logan, UT on Wednesday, May 28, 2008
     
    I bought this boom box for my PE class and I love it! I've had it for at least 2 years. I can transport it anywhere easily and it is very durable. It does not skip CD's which most boom boxes I've previously had do when kids jump by it. The sound is good and it has a bass booster. The only downside is that I wish the sound could go louder as a gym gets very noisy.

    I'm using this in at my work (machine shop). The sound works great over the machine sounds, but the FM sensitivity for pulling in radio stations isn't anything special.
