The new classic micro system

| Dynamic Bass Boost |
Play CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs
Philips is known for making products which are compatible with many discs available in the market. This audio system lets you enjoy music from CD, CD-R and CD-RW. A single CD can store up to 10 hours of music. CD-RW (CD-Rewritable Compatible) means that your audio system can play both CD-Recordable (CD-R) and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs. CD-R discs are recordable once and can be played on any audio CD player while CD-RW discs can be recorded and rewritten multiple times and can only be played back on compatible audio CD players.
Dynamic Bass Boost for deep and dramatic sound
Dynamic Bass Boost maximises your music enjoyment by emphasising the bass content of the music throughout the range of volume settings - from low to high – at the touch of a button! Bottom-end bass frequencies usually get lost when the volume is set at a low level. To counteract this, Dynamic Bass Boost can be switched on to boost bass levels, so you can enjoy consistent sound even when you turn down the volume.

This little system from Philips is nicely packaged - not too garish and fine for a bedroom. It has plenty of sound, MP3 player input, headphone output, cassette tape (remember them?) and of course a top loader CD player.
I live in a small block of flats constructed of steel and solid concrete walls - almost all RF is blocked (mobile phones can be a problem) so I cannot comment on the in-built AM tuner. The FM 'wire' is also not used. I have however found that a normal FM through-panel female socket can be put in place of the FM wire and a short length of co-ax soldered to the ANT or FM pin (where the black wire goes) with an earth on the VT pin close by - some models have this done at the factory. OK it invalidates the warranty, but these gizmos are cheap enough not to worry.
CD performance can be variable - sometimes I get hum, sometimes not. In quiescent state, there is a small amount of hum. An important point is that the player only plays audio CDs and they must be in top nick - several of mine in the usual cda format will not play on the player, but copied to fresh stock gives no problem: it may be due to actual CD batch as I cannot see any 'electronic' or visual defect in these CDs.
The speaker wires (like many units) are too short - however you can cut them off the speaker (leave about 3 inches), feed them into a strip conector screwed into the back and run your own wires (see Maplin.co.uk - they have a range of inexpensive speaker wires on drums for about a tenner).
Overall a good buy at the price and I would buy it again for the bedroom as it is a small unit and the blue backlight not over
bright.

This system is really neat - it just fits on a small table and the sound quality is excellent. The radio reception is good but could be better - it may have something to do with using an indoor aerial. For the money I would say it's excellent value.

My parents love this little player. It's easy to use and doesn't have many buttons to press, so nothing confusing there.
Great for that little bit of background music.
