The AM radio reception is TERRIBLE, and that was my primary reason for buying the unit. Also, the power of the speakers is far too great for use in an office setting. I was very disappointed with this item for the amount that I paid for it. I had this unit in my office on the lowest volume, and it was still far too loud. I unhooked one speaker, and my office mates were still bothered. The sound quality was very good, but there were other flaws with the unit that caused my dissatisfaction. This system may do well for a different setting, but it is certainly not of any use for listening to the radio in a quiet setting.
The motor doesn't have enough power to pull/down the door for add/remove CD's from it.Was cool looking when it was working, over time it will just be a paper weight.Also the sound was very low quality and the remote is difficult to use (yes that's true).A large majority of Philips/Magnavox products are crappy quality and poor warranty support. I have used this product for only a few months and it has already stopped working normally. Stay away.
It's not really loud and it's not very clear when you turn up the volume so it is not good for heavy music. If they are tired or scratched even a tiny bit.they won't play. [i.e. It's OK. It only plays CDs that are in pristine condition. Korn fans should pass on this one, for instance].However.if you're looking to listen to your Aerosmith CDs while doing the dishes, then it's fine for you. Somehow, it's bigger and heavier than I expected. :)
The antennas were placed properly and all. I am not sure why this occurs. The radio is good unfortunately sometimes you hear a lot of static. With that exception, the product is okay.
I have been using this radio for about 1 month now and have no complaints. Doesn't take up alot of room, can be wall mounted and has nice sound. I wasn't looking for a top of the line radio, but something with some style. If you want more power then spend more money, but for what you pay with this radio I have no complaints at all.
