Customer Reviews

Very good hi-fi, loads of features
Well my old hi-fi system had finally died. I'd been looking around for a new one for a while, and this Sony has all the features I was searching for. Autoloader with MP3 playback, tape deck, DAB radio - excellent.

I, like other reviewers, was worried about the negative comments on here. Ignore them! I live in the southwest, not London, but I've got all the DAB stations that I could expect to get with the supplied antenna. The build quality is great, as is the sound. It's a little bigger than a micro hifi, but it's still quite small. For the money, you'll be hard to match all the features.

One of the reviewers was correct about the speakers cables being too short, and not extendible. Sony, in their wisdom, decided to put a funny plug on the end of speaker leads. Hence the loss of a star rating. After a visit to Maplin I found the parts needed to extend the cables without cutting it open. If you want to do this then you'll need the following: 1 x JW64U (HDD power connector male - four in the pack), 1 x JW65v (HDD power connector female - four in the pack) and the necessary lengths of speaker cable. Crimp one end of the cable with male connectors and the other with the female, and join together. It works a treat.

I hope this helps you to make a decision about this product.

Brilliant
For the money, this system is great. When I was buying I was cautious because of the reviews that said the DAB did not work and that the sound quality was rubbish, but then I risked it and bought this model anyway, and all I can say is that it is brilliant!

DAB works fine, I had to scan twice but on the second go it found them all. Sounds absolutely amazing for what it is and I play sound from my laptop into it mainly so its excellent. Took 10 mins to set up, and thats without reading the instructions.

Overall, a very good buy. I don't usually write reviews but seeing the bad ones about this, I thought I should share my positive experience that I have had with it so far!

I liked it so much I am going to buy a second one for the lounge!
I wanted an inexpensive 3 cd changer with DAB, RDS and good sound. This unit ticks all the boxes - only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the bit of noise the cd changer makes when it switches trays, if it had been totally silent it would be 5 stars. Check the Sony website for correct technical specs on this product - for example, Amazon site says "RDS - no", but it does in fact have RDS. £129 is an excellent price too. I bought it for the bedroom (too big for a bedside table though) as it has a sleep function as well as a wake-up function, and like it so much I am going to buy another for the lounge. The DAB issue - I switched on, it immediately tuned all the stations automatically, no problem. The display shows which station you are listening to.
