Extremely disappointing CD Player
921935
At first, I couldn't even get the unit to turn on, but a response to my posted complaint supplied needed information that the power cord must be pulled in order to turn on the unit.  That worked, but now the CD player cuts out incessantly such that it is unusable.  I thought that this A/C powered CD player would be much more reliable than the battery powered Walkmans, but the reverse is actually true.  I do not recommend.

I returned this player after one use, it is noisy, you can hear the disk spinning over the music, it is hard to see the buttons and too many steps just to play a cd.

This unit is disappointing. First the speakers started to go, next the CD player does not work, If you are looking for something that will last.....STOP do not order this item. I only am able to use the radio and the AUX plug. Now it sits outside when I am working on my house. Next stop junk yard....

This needs to have 2.5 stars, not 3.  The CD player/speakers sound quite good, but the cassette player sounded warbly from the first tape I played.  If the CD player didn't sound so good, I would return the item.  Other reviews indicated it didn't hold up to use - we'll see.  Not worthy of the name Jensen.

I bought this radio because the one in my car completely died. I knew I didn't want to spend lot of money because my car is really old. I wanted something simple that would play CD's and radio. Unfortunately this CD player does not have an anti skip device and constantly scratches and skips and pauses while the car is in motion. I don't understand why any CD player that is going to be inside a moving vehicle would not be equipped to protect the sound quality or integrety of the CD. Im really dissapointed with my purchase. The radio is nothing but static and the sound quality os poor. Overall if you really want something flashy and thats going to give you great sound then I'd say spend the extra money and get something better. If you're just looking for some soound in your car and are not particular then this one is fine....for the time being.

Do not buy this item unless you  plan to never touch it once you have started a CD. Not to change a selection!!  Not even to change the volume.  It skips with the LEAST LITTLE tap.  Go ahead and spend a few more bucks if you plan to be AT ALL active with your player -"active" means touching it!!

After 2 years of light use it is completely broken. Out of the blue. Just turned it on one day and it could not read any CDs. Stuck at "CD Reading". I noticed that it does not spin the CDs at all (based on the disk position when I insert the CD and after I eject it - same exact position). What a disappointment! Too bad, it was the best looking mini-system available on Amazon (I hate oversized electronics), but now I can't trust Onkyo, so I am relegated to the lesser looking Yamaha Not looking forward to it.

We purchased this a couple of years ago and we sent it back to Sony in Texas 3 times for replacement and finally kept this one because we were afraid if we sent it back again we would get one that's worse!  The CD player won't play many home-made CD's that play just fine in either one of our car CD's.  The speakers are not real clear.  I have a $19.95 Emerson table model that is far better that this expensive trainwreck.  It looks nice under the counter, though.  The radio reception is also less than adequate.

Wow, what a disappointment. I had bought this as a cheap replacement for my '96 Infinity stereo. It lists lots of features and I thought it was a great price for all of the features (all over-rated!) it has. My complaints?....well, first of all, the DVD display is so small that it's really difficult to even watch a movie. The diplays are so small that you can't make out anything unless you have a magnifying glass, especially in the daylight. It's also difficult to FF and RW a CD because you have to tap the little buttons a few times to make it FF or RW faster, and if you don't hold it down long enough, it thinks you want to change tracks all together. The Blue Tooth feature isn't very good either. I sold my car a few months after installing this stereo and although I could have put my old stereo back in, I hated this one enough to give it to the new owner.

The cd player worked fine for about 30 minutes (of course, right after I loaded all 200 discs in it). After that, it started skipping horribly. Sometimes it would play as expected, but that was rare. It would go into a permanent fast-forward mode and it would not play normally. Sometimes it would be okay as long as it was in full random mode, but as soon as I tried to play just one cd all the way through, it acted as if it were possessed. I'm in the process of returning this player.  Save yourself the trouble - don't buy it!!

This belongs in the junkyard! The sound was horrible, the CD quality was terrible, and the cassette player moved too slowly, diminishing the sound. It is going straight back to the store.

If I could give it less than one star, I would.  The CD player has difficulty loading it.  At least half the songs skip like crazy (although there are no visible skips.  $16 was a lot of money to pay for absolutely nothing.

When I bought this unit in May 2013, I tested it only on store-bought CDs.  It played them fine.  I have not used it much since then because my wife has been in the hospital for many months and I have not had time.  Yesterday, I finally tried playing CD-R discs that I have recorded using commercial software.  None of these would play on this TEAC 1260.  All of them easily played on my very old (1989) Sony CD player that died (and that this TEAC replaced).  My CD-Rs also easily play on my three DVD players.  I was looking for a good single disc CD player that would be simple to use.  Unfortunately, the TEAC 1260 is not it.  If you only play CDs that you do not record yourself, I guess it would be O.K., but otherwise I cannot recommend it and am very sorry I wasted my money, as it is now too late to return it.

It was easy to download songs from my CD collection. You can't listen to songs randomly, it always starts at the beginning of the 1st CD, unless you want to advance it, advance it, advance it, which can get tedius every time you listen. Tried to listen to radio at work, doesn't pick up any stations inside the building. I truely don't recommend this MP3 Player.

I wish I had found a review for this product before I bought it.  If all you are looking for is a cheap way to play records, CD's and tapes, I guess it would be all right, but I bought it to convert vinyl to CD and have been sorely disappointed.

1.) Recording vinyl to CD results in a CD with one track that will need to be split up with editing software on your pc.  You can babysit the recording process and press a button each time the song changes, but this is not a realistic option if you are trying to convert more than a few albums.

2.) The user interface is horrible.  Although the retro styling is attractive, button labels are hard to read and poorly organized.  I've lost count of the times that I've hit the power off button instead of the cd eject.

3.) There is no line out jack for external devices.  Even worse, you cannot record from the line-in jack.

4.) My unit was shipped with a broken tape player.  I did not find this out until 8 months later when I first tried to play a tape.

5.) Because of the broken tape player, I was unfortunate enough to encounter their customer service.  Service is substandard.  After 8 months, the unit was out of warantee; so I needed to send the unit to them on my own.  I paid for shipping and packing and sent the unit and a check to them two months ago.  Though they cashed the check (they don't accept credit cards for repairs) two months ago, I have yet to recieve the repaired unit.  I called them today to find out where it was and was told that technical service would call me within 2 or 3 days.

This is a product and company best avoided.

This is the second karaoke player I have tried for my 7 year old daughter.  I wanted a machine that was easy to use for her, as in inserting disks and it being durable enough to withstand some kid play.  But I also wanted it to have decent sound.  So far this is as bad as the first in that it is very tinny sounding.  When two microphones are used then the second person is so muted that it is awful.  The cd player is very delayed.  After you press play you wait and wait till a song starts.  And the most irritating of all of this is the design.  Visually it is not unpleasing, but then you play it and have a microphone or two attached it tips over if you dance or move too far away from the unit.  Dumb upright design.  I wish the market was not flooded with cheap plastic electronics like this one.

This stereo is terrible if you want to listen to a CD!  All you can hear is the CD spinning. We bought it for music at night and I have hated it everyday since we purchased it.
