Review for Sony CMTHX5BT Bluetooth Hifi System:
Works like a charm
Does exactly what is. Works perfectly streaming from lap top or mobile. Much easier that Wi-Fi streaming or using a squeezebox.51

Review for Teac CRH257I-BLACK Teac CRH257i HiFi System with iPod Dock in Black:
neat with i-podability
I use it to supply 2.1 to my lcd 32 inch TV since it also runs a sub woofer. The DAB radio is fine and the input for the TV sound plays well. the CD player is on the money as well. But its main advantage is its i-pod pod which happily charges up the nano pod while playing through the system. If it could play DVDs and upscale them it would get the five stars.52

Review for Alba SYS1773CDUSB CD Micro System with USB Host:
* It's reasonably compact
* Simple to use
* Cheap
Cons:
* Sound quality (or rather lack of it)
* Build quality is highly variable you'll probably end up taking the first couple back
* Miniature LCD display is difficult to read and not particularly informative
* Crude radio tuning. If you need to find anything less powerful than Radio 2, forget it
Cheap, nasty switchgear which will probably not last long before the contact go and the speakers are so light you will need to Blutack them down to stop them floating away. Sound quality is minimal. Spend a few bob more and buy something of higher quality, Sony, Panasonic, Pure - ANYTHING but this.
Oh, yes, the most ridiculous remote ever that doesn't have a volume control on it! Gets 2 stars only because it's so cheap!

Review for Panasonic PM4DBEB-S Micro HiFi System 20W - With DAB Radio:
That said, the DAB radio is excellent & though I haven't used it yet, the option to hook up your MP3 player is a bonus.

Review for Panasonic PM4DBEB-S Micro HiFi System 20W - With DAB Radio:
Great system, but things missing!!
I bought this to replace a Sony Micro system & I used both the display clock & auxiliary input constantly. However, the Panasonic only displays the clock for 5 seconds (!!) & has no auxiliary input. I have managed to get around this, but it doesn't feel like a complete system.That said, the DAB radio is excellent & though I haven't used it yet, the option to hook up your MP3 player is a bonus.

Review for Philips MCB275/05 MP3/WMA Micro Hi-Fi System:
As well as excellent DAB and FM reception the ability to play WMA & MP3 CD's plus the ability to play a USB memory stick made this seem like a bargain.
OK, sound is not hi-fi (the base boost helps), but then its not hi-fi prices and would be fine in a kitchen etc.

Pleased and satisfied
I am more than happy with this player. It says what it does on the box. Aesthetically pleasing. Sound not brilliant quality obviously but then the price reflects that. Well pleased and consider it good value for money.
