Denon D-M41DAB HiFi System, CD Player with Speakers, Audio Receiver, Bluetooth, 2x30W + Subwoofer PreOut, FM/DAB/DAB+ Tuner, 2x Optical Input, Headphone Output - Black

This hifi system is very good value for money. For just under £400 you get a high quality complete system with DAB/FM radio, cd player/amplifier combo, matched speakers and a remote control. It is a tried and tested system from a very well known hifi brand and has recently won a What HiFi award. Some people buy the cd player/amplifier for £267 and attach a different brand of speakers either because they already have a pair of speakers or because they think another brand might give better quality sound. However, the Denon speakers have been specially matched by Denon to give the best quality sound from this system. This is a compact system with bookshelf speakers. It cannot give the same quality of sound as a high end full size system costing thousands of pounds. That's not to say that you couldn't improve the sound quality of the Denon system. For example, I have the system on a wooden sideboard which will resonate and interfere with the sound coming from the speakers. Mounting the speakers on speaker stands with special spikes would almost certainly improve the sound quality. Likewise using high end speaker cables or high end mains lead. However, Denon have made a system which by default sounds pretty good but it can be tweaked to suit the listener's personal tastes. To do this it is necessary to download the user manual from the Denon website, which explains how to use the tone control on the remote control handset or how to match the impedance of the amplifier to a pair of headphones. My Beyerdynamic 770's have an impedance of 80 ohms which is the default setting for this system. So, as you can see this is a very sophisticated machine. There are many other things that could be discussed such as the bluetooth function which only works from another device so cannot be used with bluetooth headphones for example. I like the fact that the cd player has a cd drawer(which works very smoothly by the way) and I like the no-nonsense looks of the machine. The remote control handset I think is sensibly laid out and despite the multiplicity of hidden features, with the help of the manual it is exciting to go on a journey of discovery to find these. Until then you can just use the machine with the default settings which are designed to make it a doddle to use. By the way, the quickstart guide is pretty good for setting the machine up, connecting the cables etc and the supplied aerial wire I found gives excellent radio reception on both DAB and FM.

I've been collecting and listening to CDs since the 1980s when I was a teenager. I'd been using a Technics seperates system for the past 20 years but one of the speakers started being temperamental. I'd remembered Denon from a while ago and knew they had a good reputation for sound quality and well built units. This model (the D-M41 with Denon speakers) has actually been around since 2017, but the fact that "What HiFi" recently gave it a rave review tells you something. The unit is easy to operate and comes with a nice big remote. It's Bluetooth compatible (I've got it paired with my phone so I can enjoy music i haven't got on cd from YouTube through the speakers). The speakers themselves give a nice bassy sound and the clarity is excellent (the different levels can be adjusted through the sdb/tone button on the remote.) I have them mounted either side of my TV unit on stands (which I bought from another company). I'm glad I got the system in black as it compliments my other electrical equipment. For the price point (I paid just under 400 quid) you can't go wrong.

Initially i was looking at cheaper systems like roxel and panasonic among others which i'm sure are pretty good in their own right but after much research could no longer ignore the reviews of this little beauty and then finding out that What hi fi magazine had awarded 5 star ratings for best mini hi fi and best hi fi under 500 pounds on several occasions, i now felt sure i had to buy it or forever regret getting a cheaper one. This Denon d-m41 is a wonderful piece of kit Quality look Quality feel Quality weight but most of all Quality sound, you'll never get a mini system that provides the thunder of a full size power house but that's not the point, it is what it is a bookshelf system the treble is fantastic you get all the guitar strings and cymbals etc crystal clear and the bass has an ample punch. Treble and bass are both adjustable from the remote which by the way is a nice size and very clear to read mine came with flat batteries. Preseting dab radio stations and adjusting treble bass and other features are all easy to do once you've sat down with a nice cup of tea and pick up your smart phone and ask Google anything your not sure about, the answers are all there, you will probably need this option because although the Denon comes beautifully packaged with polystyrene and everything the instructions are very basic that said i do highly recommend also its a good idea to buy telescopic aerial if you don't want the unsightly ribbon type that hangs up the wall. I brought a bingfu magnetic type which easily has strong enough magnet to stick to the side of my metal shelving unit allowing full extension of the 79mm aerial and hey presto dozens of crystal clear dab radio stations. Love it. I've since added an edifier T5 subwoofer to this package it fits in beautifully with its very similar build quality and looks but WOW what an amazing and rounded upgrade to the sound quality especially as my speakers are now nicely run in. This whole package has become an outstanding piece of kit. The subwoofer probably took me the best part of a couple of weeks to get it just right a tiny adjustment at a time but very much worth the time and patience, the end result is a wonderful little hi fi system. If I could go back six months i would definitely buy it all over again. I'm now buying CDs like they're going out of fashion, OH they are? Never. I almost forgot to mention that the Denon also has SDB mode on/off (super dynamic bass) which is very handy for bass boost when listening at low volume.

Installation rapide et simple. Le Bluetooth fonctionne du premier coup. Le tuner et le lecteur de CD délivrent un son clair et détaillé avec les enceintes Denon J'en arrive à la préférer à ma chaîne hi-fi du salon. La puissance est suffisante pour sonoriser une pièce de 30 mètres carrés. Le seul bémol est l'absence de prise usb.

Très heureux de mon achat ! Micro chaîne remplie de qualités, enceintes plus que suffisantes pour mon séjour 35m2 , son clair, lecteur cd de qualité,connection bluetooth très simple, réglages radio et radio dab simple également. Bref super performances et rendu des matériaux très qualitatifs

Excellent sur tous les points parfois la machine coupe le son 2 à 3 seconde sans raison Mais dans l ensemble top , livrais avec soins et rapide

Ordered before and received only the amplifier after an 8 week wait. Got a refund and have ordered it again. Still waiting for it to be shipped weeks later. It had better be the full item as shown in the picture this time.

Denon steht für einen satten, weichen aber akzentuierten Klang. Diese Kompaktanlage lässt hier keine Wünsche übrig, für Räume bis 30 qm ist eine Beschallung in jedem Fall realistisch. Die mitgelieferten Boxen tun ihren Job sehr solide, eine nachträgliche Erweiterung durch hochwertigere Lautsprecher und bessere Kabel ist möglich und könnte das sehr gute Klangsignal weiter verbessern. Doch auch die gelieferte Paketlösung bietet schon eine überdurchschnittlich "feine" Klangausbeute. Die technischen Features sind für den Preis angemessen gut, die Anschlüsse lassen Erweiterungen zu. Manchen Interessenten mag eine digitale Anbindung für Alexa, Siri & Co. fehlen, auch kann man nur bedingt (und wenig elegant) digitale Services (Spotify, AppleMusic o.ä.) einbinden, wir haben diese Angebote im Alltag aber nicht in Verwendung. Die Bluetooth Connectivität tut gleichwohl ihren Dienst, Podcasts und Mediainhalte der (bei uns zumeist benutzten) Telefone und Tablets lassen sich problemlos abspielen. Die Timer- und Weckfunktion machen diese Stereoanlage zudem zu einem idealen, wenn auch etwas überdimensionierten Weckradio. Für den Preis von um und bei € 500,- bekommt man hier eine dezente und doch mächtige und vollwertige Stereoanlage für den Alltag. Ob im Wohnraum, im (Jugend)Schlafzimmer oder als "kleine" Lösung für einen anderes Umfeld, die Kompaktanlage bietet zuerst einen ausdifferenzierten und eher warmen/ weichen Klang, auch bei größeren Lautstärken. Neben den Hauptzuspielquellen (DAB+) Radio und (auch Daten- und selbst gebrannten) CD lassen sich über Bluetooth und die Kabelverbindungen weitere Quellen ausgeben. Die Fernbedienung ist dabei übersichtlich gestaltet und auch baugleich von Drittanbietern nachzubestellen (Hundebesitzer anwesend?).
