Tony, Halifax , “Classical music lover”

Score 9.0/10

+ Can be used side by side rather than stacked

- Noise from cd drive
Mirror finish of data window reflects surrounding light areas so can be difficult to read, non reflective finish would be better

Radio	DAB
As well as analog FM and AM radio, Digital radio, or DAB, is available on many hi fis. In areas with reception, DAB is much clearer than FM or AM.
iPod and MP3 Player Docking	Yes
This model features a port to enable you to play back music from an iPod or other MP3 player.
Disc Player	CD Player
Most Hi Fi systems play CDs and some also play DVDs.
Type of Speakers	Freestanding
Freestanding speakers are separate from the hifi body and can be moved away from the main unit. Built-in speakers are part of the main unit, so the hifi is more compact, but you don’t get any choice about where to place the speakers.

The standard measure of the maximum sound the speaker or speakers can produce. For more details see: What is RMS Wattage?
