Straight forward to setup, DAB works well, sound is crystal clear and of a good quality.
I have had problems connecting it to my TV set to play the sound through the speakers.

I debated over quite a few different models, I cannot fault my decision because this hifi set has it all except a good instruction manual. If you have ordered it do not worry, it is a great little stereo.

Good sound quality when playing CD's.
Cannot pick up a single DAB radio station.

I purchased it for the DAB receiver, however this was priory to the knowledge that the area I live within has reception difficulties. Basically I am getting no signal at all, but it should be picking up something according to my neighbour. His DAB radio picks up a frequency, even if it's poor. I think it's a bad sign this hifi does not pick up anything at all. I went back to the retailer stating the problem with the radio, but they would not take it back, pointing out the problems with the reception was not the hif's problem.

The DAB radio makes it a good deal. Ideal for the kitchen, potting shed or a teenagers bedroom.
Plastics and materials used are cheap, look cheap and feel it as well. Sound quality is tinny if your used to a good hifi setup beforehand.

I have a couple of arcam hifi separates and b&w speakers, it makes it quite difficult for me to rate the sound on this system because I am used to such a richer sound. The sound feels very tinny to me, especially at full volume with full bass when the system seems to be coming apart at the seams. The DAB radio is however fantastic, very reliable and crystal clear. I can access all my favourite stations and new ones like BBC7. My potting shed has a socket installed so it's found a good home in there. If you care about your music, and plan on using this as your sole system I would not recommend it.
