Well I have mine since a couple weeks ago. This is my review: it’s good, more than i expected. The different modes you can use, the bluetooth, cd player works fine, and the internet radio stole my heart in a good way. The only thing i’m not sure is the speakers part, in most of genres sounds very good, but when I listen rock or metal music, it sounds like a crack in the background, I identify and it sound a little hiss with cymbals or anything. I think I have to find any EQ that works with that genres. In general, this micro music system is a good deal if you want to have it in a not big place, just to get chill and enjoy your fav music. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
UPDATE: seems that the crack noise comes from my bluetooth phone, because it doesn’t happen with other option. Also I have connected other phone and sounds great.
@@FKFRND hello, thanks for your review. I have two questions: 1)Does the FM radio station memories are kept even if you disconnect the stereo from the wall outlet? I usually disconnect all of my electronics when Im out of home. 2)Also, does the CD player has the "resume" feature? I mean, if you are playing a CD and for some reason you have to stop it and turn off the stereo, even disconnect it... Once you get back to playing the CD in the tray, does the stereo remembers the track and the minute and second you were playing? Or do you have to start playing the CD all the from the beginning? It's very important feature even more so when playing mp3 CD's with lots of files. Thanks in advance
Thank you for this demo! Looking to buy this for my father. I was completely surprised seeing that someone was using blackberry. Didn't know they were still out there.
I'm a hughe fan of Blackberry. In this video I'm using a BB Passport with BB OS 10. BB Passport uses BB OS 10, but supports android runtime until V4.3 so a lot of software (whatsapp, messenger, maps.me, swarm, a lot of browsers, some google services (gmail sync, calendar sync) etc. are still running there)
That's An Absolutely Splendid Stereo System... Better Workmanship That Alot Of The Plastic Built Ones... Sadly 100Watts Is Not Very Much These Days...With Such A Nice Design Seems Like It Should Be At Least 200 Or 300Watts...
I tried this one and got really disappointed with it! First the sound quality was mediocre at best, and there was no way to turn off the EQ (unless "Balanced" meant it was off?) and I didn't like the preset soundscapes. The volume was too loud - at "8" it should be much more quiet. But the worst thing about it was the cd player, as it couldn't play the discs from the 2009 Beatles box set without making gaps between the tracks! The Abbey Road medley with gaps, WTF?!? My guess is that the mini documentaries on those discs fooled the system into thinking it was a data disc instead of an audio disc, because it showed other data in the display compared to other cds I had played before, which worked fine by the way.
Thank you for making this video, it was very useful. How does it connect to the computer, do you have to use an audio cable with the 3.5mm jack? Because I sort of want to use it with my computer, I guess I have to plug it into my motherboard.
Thanks for the video. For the USB, let’s say you have 5000 songs in alphabetical order on the flash drive and you want to play a certain song that starts with “T”, do you have to press the next button 3 or 4 thousand times to get to it or can you go straight to the “T’s” and then scroll to the song you want?
Hello! Thanks for your video. Does the FM stored statios are kept even if you disconnect this Stereo System from the wall outlet? Some stereos lose the preset statios when power is unavailable. I listen a lot to FM radio so this will be kind of a dealbreaker. Thanks in advance
Great review! Don't know if i buy this one or Panasonic Pmx802 or Grundig CMS 5000. Kenwood Smart hifi is out of my choices. Still with Manu doubts. Marantz Melody X is superb but it needs to 2 Speakers like Dali brand...too expensive!!!
Yep! Cos i think PMX-80 is out of stock. Yes, the speakers are the same for PMX-802. Each one 50 W, 3 ohms of impedance. Just think that this impedance os too low. Normally speakers go from 4 to 16 ohms. Thank you for your suggestion!

Very fne !! Do you know if it is possible to cancel or classify internet radio or dab radio or FM radio in preselect menu when you saved some radios ? I don' t find no instruction about it in the notice on internet.... Thanks a lot...
So, when playing MP3 files from USB, it does not show the song's title, album, artist, etc.? Only "F01 T001" (folder number and track number, I assume) ?????
Hi Viljams. Thanks alot for the demo! I've got a question and I wonder if you know the answer. Any idea why my Philips TAM8905/10 doesn't read music from Samsung pendrive 64GB 3.1? It's format is exFAT. I can't change the format to FAT32, only to NTFS. I've checked another pendrive which is ADATA also 64GB but 3.0 with FAT32 and it runs music on my Philips without any problem. Do you think the problem is about the exFAT or it's just about the USB 3.0 version?
Great video thnx but I have a question, when you play a song from the usb and turn the system off and on will it remember the last track that had played and the time when it stops ???
Hi! No, it do not remember last played track. It plays first track on the usb stick. Even if you do not turn system off - just change audio source, for examble to radio and then back to USB, it scans entire flash and start playing first trck.
@@ViljamsVidauskisHello, thnx for quick response, it’s a really stupid thing that Philips doesn’t seems to understand pffff frustrating isn’t it for me it really is !!! Pffff thnx greetings
The DAB marketing is better than its actual technical merrits. Don't be sad about Latvia didn't choose it, in fact be happy that there is still common sense in the decision process. In case of emergency it is garbage. In case of quality during non emergency, use the internet.
I recently bought this system for my second house. In all fairness it delivers reasonably acceptable sound for the price. However comparing my Esoteric K-07 SACD player to this is like moving from Rolls Royce to Dacia.
My gosh., that´s a complete and big hifi system with all the staks of devices and bookssheld speakers. Which books shelfs and amplifier uses with that SACD player ?.

No jak na to maleństwo nawet to gra. Ale jestem tego zdania że kiedyś robiono lepiej grające mini i midi wieże. Teraz są tylko naszpikowane technologią przepraszam ale to moje zdanie.

I already bought this, and i’m awaiting to arrive. I will give my review once I get this on my hands.
Yes, please, do it I'm genuinely curious about this stereo

So after 3 years how is this system now? Any issues?

A thumb up at "real men don't read instructions!" 😂. Great Borat sounding review, keep it up
great bit of kit amazing features and sound quality well done Phillips!
Thanks for this, I'm considering buying one & this was very useful. Just wish you'd shown us the CD player in use.
Thank you for creating this video. It helped me tremendously.
great review ! i'm considering to buy this very microsystem and your review is very useful , thanks a lot ! ;)
I think the cats are over the moon with the purchase

Great review and demo, cute cat too😃🇳🇴
Thanks too you, i buy this👏
Can you explain how the remote control works please 🙏 I’ve just bought this today. Thank you
Thanks for the review. Was helpful for me.
MERCI!!!!!! Vous m'avez beaucoup aidé à mettre en place cet appareil. C'était difficile pour moi. Encore MERCI!!!!
You're like the radio operators talking all the time while the song is playing, thanks for the review anyway.
Huh, thanks for the advice ;-)
Nice video mate,just bought this for my workshop :)
Sweet cats btw
So I really really like the design, but is it really worth the 350 euros? Can it handle low frequencies?
After viewing some videos of that audio system i decided to buy it. I got it for 225 euro which is bargain considering the regular price is 400euro.
Cool cat one question this radio requires wi-fi or mobile hotspot?
Thanks! :) Classical terrestrial FM radio or DAB don't require. Internet radio require wifi or mobile hotspot, the unit doesn't have thernet.
Just purchased it from Amazon. Thanks for good review..
Thumbs up, great video. Thumbs up for the BB. I am sure Sam Time would give you a thumbs up also, for the BB.

Is the internet easy to set up on it also can you use wireless internet rather than wired?
Real men dont read the instruction's. true facts right there man :)
I'm dying to know what the unit displays while playing a CD.
Have you had a problem with remote control connection after sfotware update? I cannot use the system with its remote control. Thanks!
hello! i have the same system. when it's on standby mode sometimes reboots /restarts itself. does it happen to you too?
I have a Kenwood internet radio and the display is exactly the same ;) greetings from Belgium.

Dont buy this! CD player failed after one year and not possibel to clean the lens. This stereo-sustem is a junk of shit.
Bello il tuo gatto. Come si chiama?Ciao
I l'ho comprato questo stereo. non è mica un granché. non ha nemmeno i controlli per i bassi e gli alti
