"this sounds as good as my Proton 300/301". For those of you who know about, or are lucky enough to own an old Proton, that's some fine company to keep. Is it as good? I don't have the equipment to test and prove so, but it's mighty close if it isn't.I wished that on occasion, when going camping, to a picnic, etc... that I could take the Proton (and it's fantastic sound quality) with me. Well, now with a 12-pack of D-Batteries and a Sound Cube, you can do just that. The battery door is on the bottom, and screws securely into brass sockets mounted in the radio (you can use a nickel as a screwdriver). It doesn't have those typical flimsy plastic door clips you find on most radios; so you can put away that roll of electrical tape you use to patch the battery doors on your old radios. You also won't need to paste any foam on the door to keep the batteries from rattling, as the Cube already has a piece of well secured good quality foam (that won't rot from age). Nice touch!How about features? The drivers are on the left/right sides of the Cube. The passive radiators are on the front/back. Granted, you lose some volume if you're in front of the control side (as the drivers fire sideways), but for stereo separation, that makes sense. Need more volume? Hey, it "goes to 11". Yes, it really does. There are two markings for the volume knob... "Off", and "11". Bonus point to the folks at TDK for having a sense of humor!I definitely like the touch-screen control panel. Source selections are: 1)FM; 2)USB for flash drives and such; 3)AUX-1 for either the 1/8" Mini-Stereo jack for portable CD/MP3 players or the 1/4" Instrument jack; 4)AUX-2 to use standard RCA L/R jacks; and 5)MIX INST will let you mix a guitar in with a piece of music you're playing.The EQ adjusts Bass/Treble. It would be nice if there were settings to tweak a wider range, but it does the job just fine; many modern radios don't have any tone controls, so I can't complain.There are 5 presets on the touch-screen panel to save favorite FM stations, and of course the controls for playing MP3s (back/forward/play/pause).The screen (OLED... nice!) shows what input you have selected, displays RDS info if the FM station you're listening too carries that (a nice touch, I didn't expect that to be a feature); and has a graphic equalizer that's thankfully subtle. Some equalizer displays are too bright/hyper; they're entertaining for a few minutes, but shortly become annoying. Someone at TDK had the sense to build in a graphic equalizer that won't become an irritation shortly after buying the radio (Thank You!).OK... how is navigating a bunch of MP3s on a USB stick? Smooth sailing. I sort my music by band/album/song. The display shows icons for folders and lists the name of the folder, and displays the song titles when it recognizes songs. If you're scrolling through the list of songs, it shows a speaker icon next to the one it's playing. So navigating USB sticks is fast, easy... and 320k MP3s/VBRs work just fine (but it won't decode FLAC directly off a USB stick).The top is rubberized, so your portable players won't get scratched up, and it helps keep them from sliding around. The FM antenna is easy to grab with your fingernails, and if you pull it out far enough, it will pivot. The carrying handle is sturdy, which is good as the Cube is a wee bit heavy when you fill it up with batteries.The majority of the case is a flat/textured black (Hooray!). I'm tired of the smooth/glossy/fingerprint magnet cases that are so popular with electronics makers (but don't seem to be so popular with their customers).The control knobs, speaker dust caps, and display are a subtle dark yellow/gold; the power-on light (on the volume knob) and currently active controls (such as play) are a "non-eye melting" white, which gives it a touch of class while still looking modern. I used to work in the art business so I couldn't help notice that the person who did the graphic design did a nice job. Usually products like this look "slapped together", so the effort put into its appearance is appreciated.I like it much more than I expected; TDK has a sleeper hit here. For those of you scouring the "Bay" in desperation to find an old Proton radio in decent condition (and for a reasonable price), you might be happier with the Cube, which is also more capable.Bonus: Looking for a carrying case to put it in to protect the drivers, and to keep it dry/clean when transporting it? Stop by your local "Mega-Mart", and look for thecube-shaped, soft-sided, 36-can soda cooler (with the removable/washable hard plastic liner). The Cube fits -perfectly- in it, and the price is right. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ TDK Sound Cube *by K***D on May 21, 2013* The TDK Sound Cube has very good sound and is easy to use. I used a jump drive with MP3's on it and the system worked well. I also connected my PC up using a mini stereo jack and the sound was very good. I would like the system more if the readout was larger, there isn't a way to arrange the MP3's other than the way they are down loaded to the jump drive. If the music is downloaded on a jump drive by artist and CD, the TDK only plays that CD title and will not go to the next CD title. Music has to be downloaded in one large playlist for continuous listening.I was very concerned that I was going to damage the speakers because I wanted to use the TDK in my car, there wasn't a DC power source for the car and I thought using batteries was not a good solution, those are the 2 main reasons I returned the TDK. This is a great system if you use it where you can plug the DC adapter in an AC source, otherwise, get ready to buy lots of batteries or buy 24 rechargeable batteries, 12 to use while 12 are charging. ### ⭐⭐⭐ A Good Portable, But Not *by M***N on March 25, 2013* I bought one of these having read prior reviews and learning about a potential battery issue. When I received it I mustered up 12 D cells and populated the battery compartment, but stuck a current meter in series with the batteries. It read that the unit was drawing 60mA from the batteries continuously, even when 'switched off'. I plugged in the power adapter. It STILL drew 60mA from the batteries even though it was powered externally. This makes no sense and defies it's use as a portable unit. The batteries would be exhausted in a few days, even not being used.As I had bought it to be used as a portable unit, this defect really bugged me. I concluded I needed to add a power switch to the unit, so I could isolate the batteries independent of what the unit was trying to do. I contacted TDK, that confirmed the batteries would be drained if left in the compartment, told me I could not obtain a service manual and if I modified it, the warranty would be voided.I could not take the thing apart - the four exposed screws in the base do not allow it to be separated once removed. Their is an internal bracing bar that runs top-to-bottom inside the unit and the screw that holds it together is hidden.I eventually found I could gently edge-out the rim around the rear passive woofer with a flat knife. Once removed the screws holding the passive woofer in place were accessible, and on their removal I could take out the passive woofer (it has no wires) and gain a 5 inch access port. I drilled a hole in the rear of the case, cut the red wire to the battery compartment and added a switch in-line (this also required some almost-blind soldering; but I was determined). Now it works the way a user would like it to.PROSSounds good, a little boomy indoors but great outdoors.Runs on a large set of batteries so it lasts quite a while truly as a portableHas a USB port - I use micro USB memory sticks, that do not even protrude out of the recessed rear connector panel, so one can be left in permanently.Top leather handle so easy to pick up and move aroundSturdy, feels robustTwo powered speakers (left and right) with concentric tweetersTwo passive woofers to increase bass.LoudNice and clear displayCONsThe battery power drain issue is a big one for a portable. If you are not adept at soldering and don't want to insert a switch, but want a portable unit, this one is not for you.Exposed drivers require you take care and can easily damage themLeft/right tweeters are side firing and no Hi-Fi guy would accept the dispersion limitations this results in, but it is perfectly fine for casual outdoor listeningLimited USB music management. It handles hierarchical directory structures, but for some reason will only shuffle within the lowest directory. So if you copy music onto a stick in the usual format - Artist - Album - Tracks, then it will only shuffle the tracks on one album. What use is that? You have to put all tracks in one directory to shuffle them. I cannot make sense of that, but can live with it.No remote, or Bluetooth.Did I say it looks and sounds good outdoors. It most certainly does. It is impressive as a sound box and has more potential than TDK took advantage of. They designed in some pretty basic flaws, but once you figure out how to get around them, hardware mods and warranty voided, it is quite a nice machine.It also has a guitar input for those budding buskers! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/5253216-tdk-life-on-record-77000015410-sound-cube-audio-system](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/5253216-tdk-life-on-record-77000015410-sound-cube-audio-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
