Title: Save Your Money for Something Better
Review: The RCA RS1289 was a gift that seemed to fit my needs: small size, CD changer, Bass enhanced speakers, cassette dubbing, tuner, clock. What a disappointment! I've had some RCA products in the past that were very good quality, but this item is nothing but frustration. To start with, to set the clock you must be very fast and dexterous or the setting times out and you have to start all over. It is not easy to set, and every time there is a power fluctuation the clock must be reset since there is now memory or battery backup. The two tape players were adequate and worked fine. The CD changer has a belt drive, the belt being a small rubber band-like part that broke during the first year of use. The CD player is useless. The AM/FM tuner works OK but isn't user friendly as far as having presets or scan features to find other stations. I've tried to nurse this system along, but frankly it is more trouble than it is worth.
