Sound quality important to me
I’m very pleased with this CD player. I wanted a player with (1) good sound quality, (2) ease of operation and (3) one that would not require a lot of space. I liked that it was all assembled and only had to be plugged it was on sale when I bought it and I feel was very fairly priced.

Buy it!
Love it! Would recommend for smaller spaces. Sound quality is great! Radio, CD player, reads USBs, and Bluetooth!!! Great buy for me with a ton of old CDs.

Perfect for smaller / medium sized rooms
TLDR: great sound quality and price for value, but bass is weak and volume could be a tad bit louder.I wanted a sound system for my room. Nothing too crazy but something that could fill my room with music that sounded better than my Bluetooth speaker. This was on sale for 99 (original price is 130 I think?) so I had to get it. Here are my thoughts.Out of the box, set up is quick and easy. I’ve seen reviews of this thing saying people found the set up to be difficult / confusing, or they didn’t get instructions, but I didn’t experience that at all. Set up is very easy; just plug in the main system and then connect the speaker wires to the back of it. They’re color coded so you can’t mess up. All in all took about 3-5 minutes.There are a few functions: audio in (plug in your phone or mp3 player if you still own that), Bluetooth, CD, USB, and FM Radio. The radio works perfectly fine for me but some stations are immune to getting reception, whatever. The CD player also works as intended. I haven’t used the USB, but the Bluetooth also works as intended.How’s the sound quality? I’m no audiophile but it sounds great to me. Sounds nice, rich, and full. I expected it to sound tinny or smushed, but I’m very satisfied with the sound quality. There are a few presets to edit the sound, but I just keep it at balanced. My only knock is the bass is pretty weak, but it’s expected with speakers like these. The volume could also be a bit louder in my opinion, but max volume is still pretty loud, especially if your room is smaller. I measured the noise to be at about 87 db when I sat 1.5-2 meters away from the speakers.This is perfect for small to medium sized rooms, get it and you won’t be disappointed. However, I think I’ll upgrade the speakers sometime down the road. But they’ll do for now.

Pretty good little bookshelf system!
First off, the vast majority if not all of the packaging is recyclable. Whoever at Philips did the packaging also did a really nice job. The little touch of folding a tab into the tape used to secure one of the bags was greatly appreciated. As for the product itself, it looks fairly nice. The speakers have about 5 feet of speaker wire each, and the power cord is also about 5 feet long, which seems generous these days. They are all permanently attached (speaker wires are permanently attached to the speakers, and the power cord is permanently attached to the base unit), which isn’t necessarily ideal especially for the speakers, but certainly not a deal breaker, and it may make setup easier for some. The Bluetooth works well and is easy to setup. I haven’t tried the CD or radio functions yet, so I can’t really speak to those. What I can speak to is the sound quality. I’m no audiophile, and the unit is set up in a lab, not a quiet living room or den. However, it’s more than loud enough for a working bio lab without the sound distorting at all, and it sounds absolutely fantastic, especially when compared to the Bluetooth speakers and old computer speakers we had been using. Overall, I’m really happy with it so far.

Great All The Way Around!
Greetings, Good Lookers!I trust you all are doing well.I ordered this system, and had it the very next day!!I opened the very sturdy box, thinking I would I would set things up a few days later; but, I could not wait; Everything was well-packed and secure. Then I saw the instructions! YIKES!Nonetheless, I unpacked everything, and saw the instructions. Phew! They looked quite daunting; but, as I started unpacking everything — I decided to completely ignore these complicated instructions, and just hook things up as I thought they should go…and — Voila — it was all hooked up and ready to rock in no time!!!!These instructions are simply a mess; but, I know you all are smart, and can hook this up in no time…I did it, so can you! The tuner and speakers seem sturdy and very well made.As for the sound — well — it is AMAZING! — such powerful sounds coming out of each of these little gems (the speakers)! Clarity is amazing, and range is equally sublime! I heard the highs, the lows, and all the precious mid-range. I was amazed! I could not understand the bad reviews here.Look, I am an attorney; and a former jazz sax player, and I have loved music for all my life, Perhaps we all hear differently — I do not know. But, I can tell you all, in my opinion these are GREAT little speakers, especially at this price-point.I can hear so many things I just could never hear with my prior speakers — and those were NOT cheap speakers!I listen to ALL kinds of music: primarily: Classical, Jazz, and Rock-N-Roll. I have the system on my dresser, with about three-feet of separation between the speakers. The sound is phenomenal!And while I am not hip to the scene of all the new devices you kids have today– like: Bluetooth and MP-3 Players — I only wanted to hear my music (on CD) as it was recorded.I am very happy that I did NOT listen to the bad reviews here. These are powerful, and very loud speakers! They will fill a room easily with the precious music you want to here — REALLY HEAR!!!!I am glad I purchased these!Rock on, kids!Dr. Of Style

No es un minicomponente pero es de los pocos equipos pequeños y baratos que aun pueden conseguirse para escuchar CDs. Muy bueno. Suena bien es elegante, ocupa poco espacio. Lo recomendamos.
Alejandro Laguna –
Necesitaba un equipo de audio para poder reproducir mis CDs sin usar un reproductor portátil, y esta es una excelente opción. Es bastante compacto, con buena calidad de construcción. La calidad del audio es bastante descente, aunque no esperes un equipo extraordinario. Además de CDs, las funiones de radio, auxiliar y Bluetooth lo hacen muy práctico. Está super para escuchar música en tu cuarto, o para ambientar una habitación no muy grande. El único pero que le encuentro es que el plástico negro brillante muestra mucho las huellas y el polvo, fuera de eso, estoy encantado.

Muy satisfecho con el equipo. Desde la compra y el tiempo de entrega. Es pequeño, practico y con buen sonido, podría ser mejor el sonido pero en el espacio que tengo suena muy bien. Recomendable al 100. Excelente relación precio calidad.
