+ This Hi-Fi has all the features I need. DAB, FM & AM radio, CD player and iPod dock. It's also got a mini-jack for audio-in if you want to connect other equipment to it (e.g. other MP3 players). Everything <just works> as it should, and it's far less fussy about CD's than previous Sony products I've seen, supporting CDR's and MP3 cds without complaint. Looks great and is pretty compact.

- Could potentially have extra ports for USB/Memory cards, but I've not missed them.
Can take a couple of seconds longer than I'd like for it to start up or go into standby mode.
Small speakers, so the bass response is perhaps sometimes a little weak.
EQ options are limited, it only has Treble/Bass +-6
Buttons are almost all on the top, so if you've got it mounted on a bookshelf you do end up standing on tiptoes to check which one you're pressing!
