Grundig CDS 8120 ENC compact system (CD / MP3 player, USB 2.0) Black / White (Electronics)

Customer Review

So I brought the plant in a set with the Audiorama boxes.
At the set price I consider the system basically only as 'free' addition.

I find quite respectable, and the sound is good for this price range.

But the operation is - shall we say - suboptimal. Very suboptimal. Here's an example

CD playback:
Ok would: after the CD insert press Play.
Here I must after Inserting a CD 6 press buttons (!):
1. Change mode.
2. At the wheel CD.
3. Confirm your selection.
4. Press the menu.
5. At the wheel, select Start.
6. Confirm the selection.

Can you live with, but good usability is something else.
