    5.0 out of 5 stars Hey - Its a music player and it works, 24 Jan 2009
    This review is from: Philips WACS7500/05 - Streamium Wireless Music Centre & Station (Electronics)
    Having seen some poor reviews I think this is the first time I've ever been motivated to defend a product! It works! It integrated with our existing wi-fi network (or will create it's own). if more people realised this i believe that much of the critisism would have been averted.

    It was difficult to set up until i realised this. Since then I love it. There are some limitations with syncronous play, but in a party enviroment, having 2 units playing the same music (or more) is great. But usually I end up with my kids listening to their stuff whilst I do my own thing in a different room, all from one unit.

    All I can say is that three of my friends have brought one after seeing mine, and all love them!

    A good buy, a good product, best of breed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars WOW, 5 Feb 2009
    By Vicki (Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Philips WACS7500/05 - Streamium Wireless Music Centre & Station (Electronics)
    My husband bought me this for christmas, but said he nearly hadn't because of some of the negative reviews he'd read about it. I'm so glad he did because this is one amazing piece of kit!. The sound quality is great and I had NO trouble setting it up ( believe me when i say I know very little about computers and networks etc) I pretty much plugged it in and away it went ! I thought I would have trouble connecting to the internet but again this was really straightforward. The internet radio capabilities are great.
    I absolutely love the option to "broadcast" the music around the house, and plan to get at least one more station to annoy the neighbours a little bit more !
    As most of my music was still on CD and not on my computer I found that it was just as quick to record it straight from the CD to the hard drive, which didn't take anywhere near as long as previous reviewers had said - about 10 mins a CD.
    I don't think I have a negative comment about the system, I love the light on it, the display and the overall look of it. No additional speakers so no need for cables everywhere !
    All said it's the best xmas pressie ever. Don't be put off by some of these reviews - take the plunge you won't regret it !

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great features, and some poor ones, 3 Jan 2009
    By Mr. David C. Derrick - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Philips WACS7500/05 - Streamium Wireless Music Centre & Station (Electronics)
    Its a solidly made unit, no creaky joints or flimsy finish on this, it feels weighty & well constructed. The sound quality is quite good, not top of the range, but the Bass Boost & Surround Sound work very well. The included features are comprehensive, and mostly work well. There are some "subscription" services on the internet radio, but you can ignore them. The "Music Broadcast" and "Music Follows Me" features I found quite useful.

    But the WACS does have some fiddly/poor features. The wireless metworking is a pain to set up, took me hours & I work with computers. The centre WIFI symbol was showing poor signal, so I spent a while trying to improve it, but in fact it had a good signal all along, its just the display shows it does not ! The station does loose connection to the centre sometimes, but it does come back. The worst feature is the CD ripping. As a test I ripped a CD on the streamium = 15 minutes ! On my PC it took 2 minutes to rip AND transfer over WIFI to the centre HDD.

    Once its setup & running, its a good unit, just dont expect to take it out the box & have it working easily.
