This review is from: Sony CMTBX77DBI Mini Hi-Fi with DAB Radio and iPod Dock (Electronics)
I had been looking for a Stereo System with a dock for my iPod Touch 3G. This one looked perfect, as it is small enough to fit on my book case, but powerful enough to make my tunes sound good. The only problem was, I could not find any reference to iPod Touch in the ad, so one quick search later found the user manual online. Not only is it compatible with the ‘Touch’ but also the ‘Classic’, ‘Nano’ and ‘Mini’. This unit looks and sounds great. Quick and easy to set up, simple controls – Just Right!

This review is from: Sony CMTBX77DBI Mini Hi-Fi with DAB Radio and iPod Dock (Electronics)
I have had so much help reading other people’s reviews that I thought I should enter my pennyworth.
This is a really slick, elegant, well priced piece of equipment. My nano i-pod fits well.
The main pleasure is the quality of the sound. I am not hugely technical in this area, but the bass allows me to enjoy cello concertos in a way that my other, cheaper player never did. Truly hugs you with sound.
The DAB radio is disappointing as there is only a flimsy wire aerial and I have another radio with a rigid aerial which works and provides perfect clarity, so that is the reason for four stars.
However, if you want a good, versatile CD product at a fair price with great looks, this is it.

This review is from: Sony CMTBX77DBI Mini Hi-Fi with DAB Radio and iPod Dock (Electronics)
As a lower price mini hi-fi, it performs well and has a really good sound. It was easy to install and is relatively easy to operate (although the instructions were very limited). On the negative side, I was hoping to be able to connect in a number of external “auxillary” items (5 CD player, DVD player and a double tape deck). Whilst it does have one input jack port on the front, it means constantly changing the plug between the items. Not impossible, but not ideal. The one thing that has caused frustration is that if you turn off the power for longer than a few hours it loses the time and all of the radio presets. It will do a search when you turn it back on, but you have to scroll through all of the stations to get your preferred one. It seems strange that Sony haven’t solved this issue, when we are constantly told to turn off at the plug to save the planet!
