It works. All except for a "forward" button, for some reason. IDK if that's fixable, but probably should have been checked. "back" button works, AUX mode works, it sounds just like Sony speakers should sound when playing a CD, but that "forward" button is a bit of an issue. Not tried the BT yet, just a bit of a fan of "old school style" connectivity. I hope it works. Neither have I ever turned on the radio on it - there is totally nothing to listen to there ) But many thanks for an original item, one that's not even made like this nowadays, that's actually cool.
