Panasonic Compact Stereo System with CD Player, Bluetooth, FM Radio and USB with Bass and Treble Control, 80W Stereo System for Home with Remote Control - SC-PM700PP-K (Black)

Perfect for the money! I live in an apartment and wanted something for my bookshelf that was better looking and certainly better sounding than a boombox, but more price conscious and less involved than an AV set up. This hits the sweetspot of sound quality, build quality, and functionlity very nicely. The speakers sound robust - no tinny tweeters - and have nice little feet on the base so they stay put if you bump them accidently. Additionally, their output is tremendous! You can really dial in between volumes needed for soundtrack and metal. The volume knob has a very satisfying resistance to it, it doesn't feel cheap and flimsy, so delightful --- if you even get close enough to it to use the knob because it comes with a very nice remote. The remote also has built in feet and I just really appreciate the feel of it in the hand and the presence of of it - you wont misplace or drop it accidently. Does not come with batteries, which is fine, but be aware. The bluetooth function is easy to use and a delight to have. The drive is only good for a single cd at a time, but for the money and the tech age, expecting more from a shelf set up is where the buyer should be looking into AV/Surround products like Onkyo, Yokohama, etc. Im so enamored with it in the bedroom that I may lose my mind and buy one for the living room for the vine alone. If you're back and forthing over a different model, go with this one - the brand name recognition is what drove me but quality is what convinced me. Its a superb little set up for a small space. Cons? Maybe the power cord is a little short? But that's really neither here nor there.

After many long weeks of research, we decided on this Panasonic Unit. It was sold out many weeks in a row from Amazon and Direct from Panasonic. We can see why. It's simply a wonderful compact CD player. It looks sleek and nice, perfect size, easy to operate, has a very good and compact and cute remote control with nice large buttons and is legible, and above all, it just works great and sounds wonderful. Every CD we put in, whether made in USA or overseas, just works and loads fast. Very clear sound, really good bass and low end and good trebles, and all genres of music sound fantastic on it. Enjoying all our old CDs very much. Bluetooth works seamlessly and has very good volume. LCD panel very clear. And a huge bonus...it has a front headphone jack!!! That is an absolute must. We've seen many CD players now that don't have it and can't understand why wouldn't manufacturers include one? For listening when we don't want to disturb anyone during the day or at night, it's a standard must and we are very happy to see Panasonic included a headphone jack on this unit. It works great and is very clear. My only wish is that Panasonic had other color / finish options besides just pure Black. Like a warm cherry wood or white would have been really nice to fit different decors. But, all in all, fantastic unit. Very Happy with the unit.

This compact Panasonic CD Stereo System (SC-PM700) book case stereo system has, thus far, performed as promised and flawlessly. The lush stereo sounds/music, either from a CD and/or the FM radio is clear, full and rich. The entire system is beautiful engineered with an equally beautifully done black exterior presentation, which fits perfectly in our current office book shelf system. The display panel is bright, the enclosed remote controller is functional and easy to use, along with the enclosed FM antenna. Though this compact stereo system is a bit pricer than many current "no-name" brand compact book shelf stereo systems, the overall quality and longevity of Panasonic products is undeniable. For a few more dollars, we'll stick to quality, longevity and excellence every time. Enjoy!!!

I really like this stereo... very good sound quality, easy to use, good value for the price, reliable bluetooth connection. I only have a couple of quibbles.First, there is no aux input. I do have an old iPhone 4 that I sometimes use for streaming, and I would have liked to use it with the audio output jack, but can't.The other quibble is with the CD player. First of all it has no memory. If you stop the disc, it doesn't remember where it was, and if you want to pick up where you left off, you have to try and remember, then step through all the tracks again, and you can't go backwards from track 1 to take a shortcut to higher-numbered tracks as other CD players do. Also, the readout of the CDs is inadequate; it doesn't show you title and artist information, and if you want to see the track number, you have to use the remote see it, and then it goes back to the lame "CD" readout when it goes to the next track.

Easy to set up, good price, nice compact size, simple to use controls, great functions, great volume,

Just got it a couple of days ago but I'm very impressed with the sound. It only plays, however, certain types of flash drives. But it isn't a deal breaker. The radio reception is very clear and it's construction is solid. The CD player is top notch. After all, it's Panasonic and you wouldn't expect less.

Excellent System! Perfect for a smaller room. Good sound for its size. Seamlessly connects to my iPhone.
