5 out of 5 stars Great size, amazing sound - generally a great buy!   October 5, 2008

I'd be dallying for a while about buying this or the Intempo DAB iPod dock and I am so glad I bought this one. It has great sound for such a relatively small system (I am sure the neighbours agree). I have literally just plugged in my iPod and it plays. The remote is great too - I can control the wheel with it which is great for being lazy! The DAB functionality is great too - I have already saved my favourite channels in the system. br /Very easy to use, looks great, sounds amazing - no regrets (only that I didn't buy it sooner!).


5 out of 5 stars Cracking little unit   August 28, 2008

I bought this system to replace a similar one by an inferior make (iSymphony) and it's exactly what I wanted. It has great sound, although I'm not using the speakers that came with it, it's connected through my AV system. Unlike the previous system I had there is no audible buzzing noise when the power is turned on which is why I needed a new unit. The CD turntable is silent which is another bonus. br / br /As for the DAB aerial issue (see other reviews) I found the supplied length of wire gave me perfect reception for 5Live, Planet Rock etc by just running it straight up the wall in some trunking. br / br /If you have an iPod and are looking for a unit to dock it into in order to play tracks and charge the player at the same time you will be more than happy with this system - and it's a good price too! I found the remote is easy to use as the controls for using the iPod are exactly the same as on the player, it's just a wheel system with a button in the middle. br / br /Simple, stylish and not expensive. Got to be a winner!


3 out of 5 stars Quality unit but needs External aerial for DAB   August 24, 2008

Hi br /Firstly i bought this unit because i wanted a docking station for my Ipod that would give quality sound and would play data MP3 CDS. This it does very well and the sound quality is much better than the ghetto blaster it repaces. The thing that clinched the deal was the DAB radio but alas the aerial provided for this is basically a socket and a 1 metre length of wire that you are supposed to trail horizontally from the back of the unit. I am afraid Sony you are having a laugh! this is pathetic, why when you can buy a portable radio that can give decent reception of DAB with an attached antenna can you not produce something better than this. I would expect this kind of accessory from BUSH or CROWN but not from a sony product. My advice is if you are prepared to buy this unit and fit an external antenna then it ticks all the boxes but otherwise go for a much cheaper FM version that can produce all the same formats at a reduced cost. To summarise i am pleased with the unit for what it produces well but in eastbourne in sussex i cannot get one DAB station with this rediculous piece of wire.
