When searching for a CD-radio I became aware of this system. For me important were CD playback and DAB + as a future-proof radio system. The device is to be used mainly by my eight-year granddaughter and therefore be easy to learn to use the basic functions. The machine has been packed neatly packed and wrapped in protective foil. Lustig is the one shipped with the protective strip should be applied and to protect the touch with the smartphone from damage. Ikea says hello :-). The manual is very well written but poorly designed. A preliminary expression of PDF in legible characters had me directly failed. Maybe it comes with some experiments. The original is a double-sided document (front and back) folded into the size of a tablecloth and as a map, if anyone knows what I mean. Perhaps to prevent copying / reprinting. What the hell. The CD tray is purely mechanical and opens attenuated by spring. Buying and MP3 CD (burned and RW!) Worked. Attention! No UDF format readable. Some software (eg. CDBurnerXP) switches automatically to here what NoDisk a result. ISO 9660 / Joliet definitely works. The sound and volume quite acceptable, which I had the indication of 10% distortion in the description a bit irritated. Plus of Sony. Many other manufacturers would not have written as detailed in the technical data. The Mega Bass is a quite useful feature especially at low volumes. The mini light organ strip is just pretty. DAB and FM radio can easily be programmed and vote. In particular DAB reception also neatly in the cellar. FM on the first floor of only the strongest local stations. I think there are devices with better reception. When preset changes preset station, the frequency is always displayed, even if you have changed my display key to station name (RDS). There are 10 presets for DAB and 20 for FM Radio. Conversely, would be better. NFC pairing with Samsung Galaxy Note 2 works fine. Coupling manually with Samsung Galaxy 10.1 TAB3 well. Well suited for importing eg Internet Radio. USB to 16 GB. Works flawlessly. Sorry, no umlauts in the display. Here's a plus: The operation is logical and even the special functions are easily accessible. Here the many keys with direct functions make advantageous noticeable. Summary: There are very good quality at a reasonable price. Rest is whining at a high level. 5 Stars.
