Philips M8905/10 Stereo with Bluetooth and Internet Radio DAB+/FM, Micro system (USB, Spotify Connect, CD, MP3-CD, 100 W, Bass reflex speakers, Digital Sound Control) - Model

All is fine, great sound and Bluetooth connection. Loudspeakers.

This Philips M8905/10 is a brilliant micro system in this price category. For £229 is the same price as the no-name brands with the similar parameters. Obviously, there are much better Wi-Fi micro systems on the market. But, their prices are £490 and up, so it's quite unfair to compare twice cheaper micro system to the significantly higher price range. The sound is good enough for the most people, it can be improved by better speaker cables, if you are willing to spend more money. 2× 50W is enough for the standard-sized room. I'm listening to Classical music, Rock, Pop, Metal, Jazz, Blues and Opera. For the hard-core music fans is better to go higher, or to buy an excellent speaker cables. For me it's perfectly acceptable for this price. It would be better, if they would make a better equaliser, or, if there would be a chance to make the custom one. The only negative things are speaker connectors, because in this price category is better to make a sprung speakers, but it's not a big tragedy. Display is rather smaller than it should have been, but with a good visibility. The second (and the last) negative thing is the audio in on the front. I'm using a turntable connected to this system and it doesn't look esthetically great, but I can live with it. It's not a specific PHONO, so bear in mind, if you are thinking of a turntable. The sensitivity of DAB+ is great, but the FM is significantly worse. Just almost nobody is listening to the ancient FM anymore, so it's not a problem at all. Spotify Connect is working well, the same CD player, and Bluetooth. Also no problems with the turntable connected through the front AUX IN. The remote control is intuitive to use, and it's working from the various angles and directions. If you are an audiophile, is not for you. If you can spend twice more money for the higher level, just do it. If you want to buy a decent, cheap micro system by a well-known brand, look no further. This is the perfect balance between the features and money. I'm happy with this system.

I like to power off broadband and all gadgets at night which on previous day hifi wasn't an issue for re connecting following day but with this internet radio I'm having to leave on standby 24/7 and the same with router because the disconnection of station logo and information was always missing next turn on connection, it was driving me potty but I just decided to leave plugged in overnight, it seems to be the frontier software that causes this I think? I have installed the undok app on phone and it's much quicker to store favourites on dab, internet, podcasts etc , if any gremlins on the app just restart the hi-fi and it reconnects. I wish the unit colour was more silver and the speakers were pale wood colour but I'm fussy, great sound I wish the volume had middle increments because 3 to 4 etc needs a .5 increase in can be too low or too loud but if you don't have thin walls with neighbours it won't be a problem. The speaker cables are not long enough if you place speakers more than 4ft away a bit stingy Philips! Basic guide sheet but online is more detailed, preset equaliser, I prefer Powerful mode. Usb is annoying as it doesn't remember last played position upon stopping it returns to file 1 track 1. Not bad though!

Combining internet radio, DAB+, FM, CD, Bluetooth, USB and all in a reasonably compact yet superb sounding product is a big ask, but Philips have done just that. Easy to set up and use, powerful 100W sound and with a handy remote. Very happy with this.

A Great Compact CD player,well worth the coin!!!Sounds Punchy,Not Bad speakers good sound big thumbs up well done Philips!!!

Great value, excellent quality and the sound has a really rich tone to it.

This system has a lot going for it at the price - DAB, internet radio, podcasts, FM, CD audio in and more. It's easy to set up and easy to use, and it produces a very warm and clear sound. It's a compact and capable system that looks fine. Alas, I had two bad experiences with this system. I bought one of these, and out of the box it refused to play any CDs. That went back for a refund. When the price dropped i bought another, and that one randomly refused to produce any sound from the speakers. Sound via headphones worked okay. Philips support was pretty good, and said okay to a return and refund. Am disappointed with it. It has a great feature set, sounds great, and it doesn't look like aTransformers movie prop. Too bad that both of the systems I bought it simply didn't work.

Great stereo with great sound for our living room, easy enough to set up & looks stylish. It would be better if one could adjust the Bass & Treble manually . The display is very small, I used to be able to read what songs were playing etc from the other side of the room on my old stereo.

The size was perfect for our situation as it was replacing a ten year old Sony micro system. Sound quality is good but way too much bass if you set the equaliser on anything other than "balanced". Now for the bad: 1. The USB playback ALWAYS starts at the first track & does NOT remember the last track position like our old Sony. 2. It can only play a FAT32 USB which is a really old format. It's now NTFS or EXFAT32. 3. If "PAUSE" is pressed it turns off after ten minutes! 4. If streaming via Bluetooth the unit switches off EVERY ten minutes & has to be constantly switched back on - totally unusable. My summing up, I expected FAR better, but our ten year old Sony was in fact way better. If you just want a radio (FM or DAB) it's okay & who these days uses CDs? For playing from a USB device it really isn't suitable if you have large play lists sadly.

Modèle Tam8905 de Philips, très bon son, possibilité connecter platine k7 ou vinyle en jack ou USB pour les modèles récents. Mode d'emploi à bien lire, un peu compliqué, car beaucoup de possibilités. Le grand plus, c'est les radio dab et internet, la connexion bluetooth et Spotify, et puis le contrôle du son, ainsi que l'encombrement mini. Côté moins, on ne peut pas faire notre réglage manuel des basses aigus, et pas de balance, ce sont des contrôles pré intégrés. En ce qui me concerne je le savais et ça ne me dérange pas. Très bonne qualité, prix en conséquence.

Prodotto ben realizzato e curato nei particolare, per nulla "plasticoso" anzi, una bella sensazione di solidità e accuratezza nella costruzione. Detto questo, passiamo al punto forte di questo sistema di HiFi, ovvero le varie possibilità di connessione. Facile ed immediato l'inserimento del device all'interno della rete domestica wifi, senza alcun problema di riconoscimento o compatibilità, ugualmente la connettività Bluetooth con smartphone è immediata e permette di gestire dallo smartphone medesimo l'ascolto delle tracce musicali presenti o della musica erogata dalle varie applicazioni come, es., YouTube-music. Inserito il cd musicale, il suono che si ascolta è più che sufficiente, tenuto conto del prezzo (ora scontato) del prodotto, con una più che dignitosa qualità percepita, tanto che si sente un poco la mancanza di un vero equalizzatore, compensata da cinque preset i quali, comunque offrono una discreta, anche se a volte troppo invasiva, regolazione dei toni. Sarebbe bastata una banale regolazione dei toni alti e bassi, qui sta il vero limite dell'impianto wifi. Potenza del suono notevole, tenuto conto dell'uso di questi impianti mini, di solito inseriti in ambienti non particolarmente vasti. Insomma, un acquisto soddisfacente, forse anche al di là delle aspettative, peccato che Philips non abbia rilasciato un prodotto analogo con qualche caratteristica migliorata, come l'ingresso USB al passo dei tempi (ora riceve solo penne formattate FAT 32 e musica mp3) e la già citata mancanza di regolazione più accurata del suono. Mi riservo una recensione più accurata in corso d'opera, per ora, molto bene. AGGIORNAMENTO. Mantengo le cinque stelle ovviamente per il costo (in promozione) del sistema, che soffre di una vera mancanza di regolazione accurata del suono, confermo anche la versatile connessione on-line, evidenziando un uso del prodotto fortemente orientato ad un ascolto delle stazioni radio, oppure sfruttando massicciamente la facile connessione bluetooth. Questo a scapito di un uso della connessione USB, assolutamente basica, piuttosto obsoleta, senza notizie o immagini relative ai brani riprodotti, solo nel formato MP3 (segnale chiaro della qualità del software di riproduzione, nonostante la connessione in rete, per non parlare del lettore CD, ancora più basico, inferiore a lettori CD di 40 anni fa. Misteri... al netto di quanto detto, il suono è più accettabile, e le casse, a due vie, si comportano egregiamente. Un prodotto che intorno ai 200 euro può essere un ottimo acquisto. Per ottenere di più, occorre, vista la concorrenza (a proposito, prodotto cinese tutto sommato ben fatto e condiviso pari-pari con altre blasonate marche), posizionarsi su altre categorie di prezzo e prodotto.

Das Mikro-Musiksystem entfaltet einen überraschend vollen, voluminösen und differenzierten Klang. Er kann durch Equalizer-Einstellungen ausreichend modifiziert werden. Sein Klangbild wird der Musiksammlung von klassischer Kammermusik bis Jimi Hendrix gerecht. Sehr gut. Die Einrichtung ist problemlos ( WLAN - Anbindung und los geht's). Das Design des Dialogfelds ist recht klein geraten, - im Gegensatz zu den zu großen analogen Bedienungsknöpfen. Die Menü-Führung bspw. für das Internetradio ist dadurch etwas unübersichtlich. Trotzdem: sehr empfehlenswerte Mini-Anlage zum vernünftigen Preis.
