Advantages: Great Basic System Disadvantages: No Good For People Who Like To Fiddle
...and currently I have the Sony CMT-SPZ90 which I have had for getting on a year now. I have the speakers wall mounted so as I get good sound throughout my bedroom (It's a large room) and being remote controlled myself and my wife can cuddle up at night with the music on and I can set the timer through the remote control and turn it of myself should we be ready to go to sleep. I personally love listening to music to go to sleep and enjoy waking to ... ...that are included with the Sony CMT-SPZ90 are brilliant with a main speaker and tweeter that are covered with a mesh shield, these I do not use as they look so much nicer without the shields and I find I get a better sound quality. The output is a very nice 100 watts which for such a small system is very powerful and more than sufficient for my need's. As for the DAB radio you can choose between both DAB and FM depending on which stations you like ...

Advantages: Small system at a reasonable price. Disadvantages: Difficult to record separate tracks
...got a decent outfit. The Sony CMT-SPZ90 gives you options that are rather clever, in that you can play all formats of CD, including MP3 and what I intended doing was recording my favourite songs over to tape for the car, as well as having an additional system for the bedroom.
It's neat and compact and doesn't take up much space at all and only needs 50 cms of space, as opposed to my older system. I quite like the fact that the speakers can be sat ... ...of wear.
I think Sony got their act right in this system for the lower end of the market. They offer more than some, though what they could have added as an improvement would have been a slot for a USB connection, which other players have. This may have made the recording less fiddly and I could have recorded direct from an MP3 player.
The instruction booklet was complex and could have done with being a bit more user friendly.
The guarantee of ...

Advantages: Still plays cassette and has DAB Disadvantages: Short speaker cables
Needed a new machine and it had to have a cassette deck (as I still have a lot of homemade tapes from my youth!) and a DAB radio too so this was a perfect machine on paper and the price was excellent too!
I read a lot of the reviews and was a little worried about the sound quality and the DAB signal. But the machine was for my kitchen and wasn't going to be my "state of the art machine."
Very easy to set up, it is indeed correct that the speaker ... ...are about 1 metre in length maybe a little longer so please take note, it could be a problem.
Switched on the auto tune for the DAB radio and oh-no, no BBC DAB stations at all. So re-tuned again and again and again. At that point my husband said "this is crap it's going back, that cheap DAB radio from Asda can pick up DAB and we live on top of a hill with a massive TV / radio mast nearby!" But I asked him to try moving the DAB aerial and interesting ...
