After re-aranging our lounge a decision was made that the black clunky stacking hi-fi had to go, so a search on the internet and a visit to the Richer Sounds website led me initially to the Denon DM31. I visited my local Richer sounds shop in Norwich the following day with the intention of purchasing a Denon, but a very helpful assistant informed me if I was to run powerful speakers such as mine (Bose Acoustimass 5) I would be better off with the Teac CRL600 with a higher wattage. I hesitated as I had no info on this model, but decided to go with it when he assured me if I wasnt happy I could return it within 14days. I plugged it all in at home and WOW I was very impressed. Far superior than my stacking ugly system. This unit sits beneath my tv ontop of the DVD player and looks well at home. The audio quality from the CD and radio is very impressive, nice and tight, not lacking any detail, bass is good, treble is sharp, full tonal controls and loudness if required. it can feed plenty of power to my speakers even very high volume. It plays CDR back up audio cd's fine as well. It has a lovely blue glow when on, but can also be switched off if required. I really struggle to find any negatives about this piece of fine modern looking kit, everything is right about it...oh did I say it also came with a free pair of Gale30 speakers as well!...might get a few quid off Ebay for them as I dont require them, along with my old system. I rate this item very highly and would thoroughly recommend it. Oh....and a remote control is also included!
