DenonD-M41DAB Mini HiFi System, CD Player with Speakers, Audio Receiver, Bluetooth, 2x30W, Subwoofer PreOut, FM Radio/DAB/DAB+, 2x Optical Inputs, Headphone Output - Silver

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.

Great mini hi-fi system. Ideal if you have a room without the space for separates. but even so this sounds so good you aren't really compromising. Really well made and put together little system, everything you need including aerial for DAB and FM, speaker cables too. The main unit is solid and sturdy and the speakers that come with it sound great.Most importantly, brilliant sound quality - clear and detailed but with decent bass and depth - from both the CD and radio and excellent price considering all you get.

I'll start off by stating I am not an audiophile, didn't know one HiFi from another. So this was a learning curve. I planned and read loads about it before I purchased it. Not all my questions were found online though, but now that I have the HiFi and have used it for 24 hours I was able to answer my own questions.Denon are the Lamborghini of audio equipment, they are without a doubt the best, I've always dreamt about owning one, but because they are high-end they are more expensive that your average brand. Picked up the D-M41DAB, which was on special. So easy to set-up with the informative documentation. This came with the Denon SC-M41 speakers. The speaker cable length(s) are 6 foot each. Both speakers are 30W each.The HiFi also gives the options of adjusting Super Dynamic Bass / Bass / Treble / Balance / Source Direct, great if like me you like Classical, but then want to shift to playing Hard Rock music. Well thought out by Denon.This HiFi also has bluetooth, i have bluetooth on my desktop PC and it was paired in seconds and I am now able to play all my digitally downloaded music seamlessly, fantastic feature. You can pair 8 different bluetooth devices.I am living in the 'Republic of Ireland' and as such the DAB function is of no use here as it is no longer broadcast (ended Summer 2024), as it didn't take off (fingers crossed it might come back). But the HiFi comes with FM and can store 40 stations, you can also edit the station names if needed. The stations are all coming in crystal clear. I used the auto-set feature and in less than a minute it had tuned in all my FM stations.I mainly listen to Classical music and some Rock. I started off by listening to Gioachino Rossini 'William Tell Overture' and I swear i could hear instruments that I could not hear before on cheaper systems. Such a pleasure listening to music as it was intended to be heard. The Triple Noise Reduction was what sold me.The HiFi also has a Protection circuit, in case the unit becomes too hot due to bad ventilation or a hot room, which shuts the HiFi down till it cools enough. Again well thought out by Denon to protect the unit from damage.You can also play MP3 music on CD-R / CD-RW that you have burned on your PC, just make sure to burn as Data CD (MP3 CD won't work). The ID3 tags also appear on the screen, nice to see title and artist whilst playing tracks.I like that the headphone socket is on the front, this was a selling point for me as most brands either had none or they were on the rear (which i thought was clumsy). The remote control is nice and big and well labelled. Some of the Denon CD Player's have USB port and supports FLAC, would have loved this to be on this HiFi, but you cannot have everything.This is my first but not last Denon product, I will be adding a Subwoofer (HiFi has Subwoofer Out) and Vinyl player into the mix at some point in the near future.

Bought a couple of weeks ago to replace smaller, portable DAB/CD radio. Use it in my smallish office/music room - fills room on volume 11 - 12 (max an ear blasting 25 or 30 I think?). Very happy with it and set up was OK if you take your time. DAB reception seems v good, CD plays bought and CD-Rs fine (mostly rock/pop). Handset controls nice and clear. Easy to set DAB presets too, and Bluetooth connects easily with my iPad Mini to playback music and speech. Four stars as although I'm v happy with it , I think the pinkish T-wire aerial wire is just plain ugly (might try a telescopic replacement later on - have done this before and it improved DAB reception) and unit consumes 70w power when switched on, which seems a little hungry to me? Maybe four and a half stars would be fairer. Neat little, clear sounding and fairly simple to operate hifi system. I like the black bookshelf speakers. Note speakers and unit are quite deep in size - you will need a shelf about 30cm deep, at least, for them. Going through my CD collection now to hear everything 'as nature intended'!

Excellent sound,spaciousness and clear.definitely a good buy ,love it.
