JVC Boombox – JVC KS-SB200 Review

One of the best JVC Boombox products we’ve seen recently is that KS-SB200, a boombox meant as an accessory to the JVC SR2000 Sirius Satellite Radio receiver – essentially, a digital receiver capable of receiving hundreds of digital channels in perfect clarity and without commercial advertisements! (although it functions as a player for any audio source). It is known to most audiophiles and enthusiasts that JVC are the name to beat in the boombox market. They have specialised in this area for more than ten years, and hold their own with style and quality performance in an increasingly competitive market.

The JVC Boombox KS-SB200 allows you to use your sirius receiver to the utmost. The beach, the garden, barbecues, at work, with friends, in the car – you can bring the quality and variety of digital radio media provided by the Sirius SR2000 anywhere you care to go. The JVC Boombox KS-SB200 is based on a cradle interface – the SR2000 slots neatly and easily into the boombox cradle. Of course, you don’t have to use the SR2000 – the auxiliary sockets on the front means that any audio source can be played through the JVC Boombox KS-SB200.

Here are some of the most prominent features of the JVC Boombox KS-SB200:

  • Pair of five inch 2-way bass reflex co-axial speaker cones create an excellent stereo image
  • It’s a seriously loud piece of kit – the famous JVC bass max sound circuit ensures that the low frequency end of the sound is powerfully enhanced. There is a fantastic bass response.
  • Adaptable headphone jack – seems like a bit of a waste to us!
  • Digital volume control is exceptionally smooth
  • Aux input to increase compatability
  • Radio antenna which is weather proof and very robust. Reception is generally excellent
  • Massive length cable – 20ft! – so you can have the JVC Boombox KS-SB200 just where you want it
  • AC adapter, but this is not always necessary, as the JVC Boombox KS-SB200 will operate on 8 batteries (D)
  • We were thoroughly impressed by the JVC Boombox KS-SB200. It looks stylish, it’s adaptable and easy to use, the sound quality is excellent, and above all, it’s LOUD! The JVC Boombox KS-SB200 is an investment in mobile music, but all things considered, it is thoroighly recommended.
