This is just a short review, but i'll try and give you my honest verdict for this product.

The good ...

1. Has CD player, Digital Tuner and Cassette player.
2. Sound quality very good for the price. Very loud and clear audio!
3. Nice build quality.
4. Has an In-socket to plug in MP3/Ipod ect when you buy the correct lead.
5. Nice looking design!
6. Can play my old tapes and record CD's ect.
7. Radio picks up lots of stations.

The bad ...

1. Bass not very good and hardly present.
2. Power only 1.7w per speaker.
3. No Bass or treble control.

For someone who wants to listen to all kinds of music whether it be on a CD or Tape and are not too fussed about sound quality this is an ideal piece of equipment to use. The sound quality is by no means bad, just seems to focus on the mid and top range of the audio spectrum. That means vocals and guitars are loud and clear, but the bass is rather lacking. You certainly wont wake up your neighbours with a booming sound through your walls! ;o)

I bought it mainly to listen to CD's in my small box room whilst using the PC and that makes it ideal. If you want to link up your Ipod to the speakers you just need to buy a small lead with a 3.5mm male jack each end and away you go.

What I really love about this player is I can listen to CD's, Tapes, Radio and anything else that plugs into the IN-Socket which makes it so versatile. I thought my old tapes would sound rubbish but was amazed how good they sounded. Sony have been clever by making this player sound good in any mode you choose to hear.

So for the money you really wont be disappointed !!

As has been said, this is an ideal kitchen/bedroom product - certainly not to be considered worthy of the sitting room. The reason is the sound quality, certainly clean and clear but with not the sound width to accomodate enough of the bass register. There is a so-called 'mega bass' setting - no tone controls - which you need on all the time, but frankly it doesn't yield much down there at all. With no output socket there's no option to plug in exterior speakers, or indeed headphones. It's good to have AM as well as FM, but with Sony's expertise I would have thought they could have accomodated Long Wave too at little added expense. All that said, to have cassette player, CD player and AM/FM radio in one neat, compact, comparatively small casing is extremely practical, and if you can perch it on a shelf somewhere so listening to it from a small distance, the sound width appears a little wider (or is that my imagination?). For what it offers, the price is excellent. You couldn't possibly expect digital radio included for that. Don't be fooled by the word 'digital' in the product title. It is great - especially for my wife - to be able to play cassettes as well as CDs and of course have the radio while she spends the most time of the two of us in the kitchen. For that reason alone, buy it, but don't expect wonderful hi-fi sound. On balance I think it's a clever, very reasonably priced piece of kit, and incidentally, despite the terrible weather before Christmas it arrived only two days after I ordered and paid for it - excellent service.

The first machine sent to me simply would not work but Amazon were excellent, very quickly sending me a new one which did. For the price it is good. My only complaint is that when you pause the CD for more than a few moments it starts at the beginning of a "chapter" (audible books) rather than where you were last listening. This is infuriating if you are in and out of the kitchen when cooking. You hear the same section over and over again. Other than that, I am happy with my purchase.

First impressions of the Sony CFD505 are very good. The sound reproduction on radio, CD and tape is excellent. I have not had it long enough to test all the functions. Read more
