Very good for a portable system

CMT-X3CD 17 May 2023 by RichHI2 (United Kingdom)

I bought this to pack in my carry on when I go on trips so I can play my music in hotel rooms. My Bose Speakers are too bulky. Whilst it is not small, it is easily small enough to go in carry on. The pictures can be deceptive as the unit has a bump out at the bottom making it deeper than it looks. The blue tooth is easy to set up and the musical quality of the iPhone through blue tooth and Lossless Digital from Sony Minidsk HD through Aux in and via Bluetooth adapter and fibre out are both very good for a portable. I would like a slightly stronger bass and the preset EQ settings are inferior to a proper Equalizer set up but this is a portable not a Neve desk. All in all I would recommend. Feels quite solid and not plasticky like so many portables.

Good product

CMT-X3CD 30 May 2022 by Aquinas (United Kingdom)

overall quality product, bought it so I could stream Amazon music.only improvement would be the the ability to conect my Sony WH-1000XM4 Bluetooth headphones when I use it to playback CD's, unless it's me.

Great System

CMT-X3CD 25 April 2022 by sue1729 (United Kingdom)

Very impressed with this system. So far I've played music through a USB and finding my way about the remote. I'm not a music aficionado but the sound quality is good for me. I keep it in the hall and it can be heard throughout the house.

CD player weakness

CMT-X3CD 17 December 2021 by SW66 (United Kingdom)

I have had one of these type of CD players before and the weakness of it is the CD player which will eventually fail! The last one I had continuously ejected discs and it was going to cost more to mend it to at replace it so sadly I changed it for one that I could also use as a wireless speaker. Time will tell…

CMT-X3CD 29 August 2021 by PeteYO7 (United Kingdom)

Bought to replace a much cheaper cd player that failed fairly quickly. This was easy to set up and appears to give a decent sound performance perfectly adequate for our room size (8.5x5) metres. Lost 1 star on features due to lack of DAB radio.

Very efficient and neat CD player/radio

CMT-X3CD 19 July 2021 by Gilly49 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

I bought this to replace my previous Sony CD player which was 27 years old. This one was by far the Best Buy within the price range. It looks neat and the sound quality is excellent (many in this price range can sound very tinny). I have it in the lounge but it’s small enough to move around the house.

I was looking for a HiFi for occasional use that didn't come with large external speakers. This product seemed to fit the bill. It is neat and compact and the output works for me. The only issue I had was tuning in the radio stations which was resolved without too much stress.

CMT-X3CD 15 January 2021 by ossie owl (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

Bought this a couple of weeks ago. The unit is generally fine, but very disappointed with the sound. Unless I've not read something correctly in the instructions, which is possible, there seems to be no way to alter the sound tone, other than a button on the remote to press for bass on or bass off. Again using the remote you can change sound mode to different music styles, but by doing this it makes very little difference to the sound

I bought this recently as I wanted a bluetooth speaker which plays CDs. I've been impressed with the sound quality and I like the fact it is fairly compact. I've given it 4 stars instead of 5 as it would be good if it had DAB instead of just FM radio.
