What I first noticed was that the device is much more compact than it appears on the web pages in the images. So much the better, because I do not like it when the stereos are showy and flashy in the living room.
When you switch on the radio stations were searched for and then man could enter the data for the Wireless LAN. All very simple and without hesitation.
I had read in the Amazon that a user was unhappy with his remote control, but I think that he should rather change's batteries, since I have no problems with my. Sure, in the bright sunlight, the Fb works worse than in the shade - which is often the case with infrared devices.

This means also that you can not read the characters of more than 2.5 meters, devices as with most Elektroniscchen. There are 4 levels of brightness.
The best of this device is that you can not only play CDs and MP3s (MP3 / WMA CD or even USB flash drive), but you can browse all the music from the computers in the network easily, find and play. (Windows Media Player 11 divides the music automatically via UPnP for us.) This feature is wonderful.
I'm not an internet radio freak, but also the thousands of stations are easy to find. The music quality changes per transmitter.
The sound is a bit too bassy. Therefore, immediately off ULTRABASS and more treble entered in equalizer. But it must be said: for such a small device, the sound is great.
In general, I am very positive about this device. It gets 'only' 4 and not 5 stars is because it has no proper line-out could be more detailed (for headphones), and sound settings (more DSP functions).
