I bought this system for the girl next door, she loves it, as I have Sony NASE35HD Giga Juke Hi-Fi system. This is a good micro hi-fi system to me, even if I have one more update technically, I say this good quality sound, very easy to use and there are no probs with it,
I hope that this helps
JUST BUY IT !! Sent: 08 January 2009
I bought this system to enjoy my i-pod music collection, together with the occasional CD. The DAB radio was a plus but not critical. I have owned several audiophile systems and appreciate the musical reproduction they offer. However, this is NOT an audiophile component but a capable audio system. No problems with DAB performance, even though I don't have the supplied leads fully extended. The abilty to navigate through your i-pod is slick. Add in the the Sony quality and the package is very attractive. Just buy one !!.
PS - well done to Hughes Direct for the excellent service and fast delivery.
Excellent little HiFi! Sent: 02 January 2009
I've bought this for the bedroom and it is ideal for this. I wouldn't use it as a replacement for a real HiFi (in my living room I have the proper HiFi which is a pair of ageing but lovely Mission speakers, a Marantz KI Signature amplifier and CD player) but perhaps with better speakers who knows?
The speakers I would say are the greatest limitation to this little Sony system but despite that it still gives a rich lush sound. The convenience of charging and playing tunes from your iPod is superb (I'm using an iPod Touch with my Sony). The remote allows you to navigate the iPod menus easily. It comes with adaptors to suit all the models of iPod I've ever heard of.
DAB is something I rarely bother with and my experiences with other DAB radios has been that the reception in my area is poor (I live in a relatively urban area too!). Plus, why should I listen to Radio 4 in low bitrate mono which drops out without warning when I have perfectly crystal clear FM stereo reception available. The FM reception is fine with the provided aerial and the method for setting up to 20 preset stations is straight forward and easy.
It plays CDs very well, the sound quality being far in excess of what the budget nature of the small speakers would lead you to believe is possible.
The unit has fan at the back, which when I noted this during unboxing gave me some apprehension (I'm using the stereo in a quiet bedroom prior to sleeping using the SLEEP function) but there was no need to worry. I've yet to hear the fan at all and I suspect that it only kicks in when the unit gets very warm.
All in all an utter bargain for the approximately £105 I paid for mine.
GREAT SYSTEM Sent: 31 December 2008
This was my first system over the last 21 years hope it last as long.
Very nice and compact system and easy to set up, nice sound plays cds and ipod no problem. Had no problem with ariel for radio. Radio tuned ok. Well worth the money.
NICE PACKAGE!!! Sent: 30 December 2008
First of all I would like to say Amazon Del service is top draw I ordered this unit on Monday afternoon at about 2.30pm it was on my doormat on Tuesday morning at 10.00am with the courier. Going back to the unit this is a brillant piece of kit from Sony. It has all the bell and whistles on it to keep most people happy as for the sound quality very good. The setting up is very easy and straight forward including the ipod docking part. Overall a very small neat and tidy unit that will do the job for the average user and more importantly it's easy to operate and comes with a remote. You can more than likely buy cheaper versions of this docking system but what you got to remember this is Sony they been around a while now and they know what there doing when it comes to this and it's not alot of money for what you get.
