Manufacturer's Description

10 hours of MP3-CD music

MP3 stands for "MPEG 1 Audio layer-3".MP3 is a revolutionary compression technology by which large digital music files can be made up to 10 times smaller without radically degrading their audio quality. MP3 has become the standard audio compression format used on the world wide web, allowing quick and easy audio file transfer.

Digital Sound Control for optimised music style settings

Digital Sound Control offers you a choice of pre-set Jazz, Rock, Pop and Classic controls you can use to optimise the frequency ranges for different musical styles. Each mode uses graphic equalising technology to automatically adjust the sound balance and enhance the most important sound frequencies in your chosen music style. Ultimately, Digital Sound Control makes it easy for you get the most out of your music by precisely adjusting the sound balance to match the type of music you are playing.

Dynamic Bass Boost for deep and dramatic bass

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 mini Hi Fi assembles easily, looks impressive and plays OK.
The FM radio is not much good when using the supplied "wire" aerial.
It only found seven stations in my area,(Preston Lancs) but was greatly improved when connected to a TV type aerial.
Don't be confused between "Digital" and "DAB".
With this set you get station and track info. when listening to FM but you cannot get stations such as "Arrow"
The big let down is the Remote Control.
It looks and feels like it fell out of a christmas cracker.
The buttons are weedy and I find the captions very hard to read.
All in all it's OK but I wish now that I had gone the extra mile and got one with a DAB radio.

Highly Recommended 1 Jan 2010
The item arrived well in time for christmas and was well packaged was well packed so no delivery damage. From the opening of the box to the 1st sounds coming out of the speakers was very quick and the quality really impressed me (i was assuming the sound would be a little "tinny" as the speakers have no depth to them). Radio tuning was fine and even with the smaller wired arial we picked up rock radio no problem and had classic rock tunes blasting around the kitchen whilst we made chrismtas dinner.

All in all a 5star item for the price

What I wanted from Hi-Fi I was buying was:
-it plays mp3s
-it properly plays CD -R -RW
-it has [for mp3s] skipping whole folders instead of single tracks
-it has decent sound
-it has random play
-it doesn't skip on smallest scratch

I've got this, and believe me it's wasn't this easy at the time to get decent player for small amount of money.

What is that I don't like about this one.

If listening to mp3 tune and want to see artist and track name [so called ID info] need to go [only on remote] trough other useless info - each time because I didn't find a way to set it permanently and I believe there isn't. The line with ID goes once or two...
Random button [not only] is present only on remote - in case of breakage.

The biggest let down:
it skips few seconds of the beginning of every track! It doesn't matter in what music format. The saddest thing about it is that if you look at Philips range they have terrible problem with it any many people is complaining at it. I've found out about it too late and couldn't return it any more.
This fault makes a difference. Once I was listening to audio book and wasn't able to make it tell me what is the first line :(
I've just read somewhere else that listening to music can give you the same effect as some tracks starts rapidly or with lyrics!
I've found way around it but it's time consuming and requires some knowledge.

-Bought it many months ago-
