Denver 9-in-1 Retro Vintage DAB Bluetooth Wooden Radio Record Player With Speakers – DAB+ Radio, FM, Record Player, Cassette & CD Player, AUX IN, MP3 USB Recording, AUX IN And Line Out - MRD-51BT MK2

Having had 2 units similar to this one in the past,i have to say that in the 2 days i have owned this hi fi system,i am delighted,....Firstly the sound and volume is very good and i have discovered through the help of Jason from 3 Wisemonkeys,the selling company...that there is an Equaliser option that works via the remote control.On initial setting up i thought that the DAB did not work.It would scan many stations then just say no service available.Again,a contact with Jason resolved my issue and DAB works great.I am impressed with the tape player,that to me seems better than the ones i have had in the past,although of pretty well identical operaion.It just seems less fiddly on this Denver unit.CD Quality is superb.Regards the turntable,it usually means if you want top quality sound from Vinyl...that you need to pay out top class money for a top notch turntable system....However i have found the sound on the turntable on the one LP i have played so far,to be of very good quality....Perhaps can be improved by use of the Equaliser,in my case i would choose the Rock option,to give it a more bassier tone...Will try it,as when i played an LP last night was not aware of the Equaliser option,on the remote control.I have noticed that some people have asked if the tone arm returns to its original position at the end of a play.The relies have been no.When i played my LP,id didn`t return.The turntable stopped and i lifted the arm back to its rest.Whilst doing this the turntable turns briefly again,then stops.The Switch on the turntable i have got set to auto stop.....Now having read the instruction manual....item number 9....on the playing vinyl records section...it does say that when the tone arm reaches the end of the record,it automatically returns to the tone arm rest and the record player stops.I can only assume if this is to be the case,you need to select Auto Stop OFF for this to happen.Have not tried it as yet.Its no problem to me that it might not return...But i mention this because in the manual it says it will.Just need to try it....and i have noticed comments of how other peoples tone arms have not returned.....So to finish,very impressed with this lovely item.Its a good price and my delivery was next day...And to recap....Customer Service from Jason at 3 Wise Monkeys,really is top class.I was planning on returning my unit,thinking the DAB didn`t work !!!! Till Jason advised.....Go on,buy one...It makes sense !!..Just checked...The Needle tone arm does not return...despite saying it does in the manual...I think the only thing lets the item down is the manual which needs updating a bit...BUT STILL GREAT ITEM,GREAT SERVICE....I found selecting FLAT on the Equaliser and turning up Volume created a better sound on the vinyl...iF THAT`S OF ANY HELP.

Love the look of the unit and the sound quality is actually quite good. As others have said, the instructions don't quite match up with the actual buttons on the machine or remote (e.g. says to press button to select phono, when it should say press the function button until phono is displayed) but these are easily gotten over. What's really annoying is that the volume keeps returning to blaring when switched on after being off so you have to be on your toes to remember to turn it down immediately after switching on as it doesn't seem to hold the previous volume level and the default is really loud.It was also bought as a way to record vinyl, cassette and CD onto USB for using in the car, but we have not been able to do this effectively. Only records about 10 minutes at a time even though there's plenty space on the USB and it's formatted correctly. Time has passed now to return it as we've been trying various ways to understand it so we'll keep for playing music but need to look into perhaps other methods to record into memory stick.Updated - 3wisemonkeys have excellent customer service. Got in touch re the recording to usb issue with a suggestion to try nothing larger than 32gb stick. It worked- now able to record more than 10 minutes! Have updated to 4 stars.

The Denver 9 in 1 record player has everything to play music. I can play music via Bluetooth from my iPhone, play all of my LP’s, CD’s, tapes. Easy to use, and not bad for sound coming from my old LP’s on the existing speakers. Even better when I hook up external speakers. I’m very pleased with this unit, and it looks nice in my lounge. All this for a reasonable good price.

So pleased with this. Bought for my hubby’s birthday to play his albums he has not heard for sometime. I was surprised with the quality of sound, not expecting it to be as good as our speakers. It was brilliant. For our small lounge we would not need anything more as the sound is crystal clear. Functions of Bluetooth, cassette and CD are also good.The quality of this item is very good.Would recommend.

I have given this one star as I have had to return it. When I first got the thing onto a table and inspected it I noticed a small dent on the top of the inside edge of the fixed cover. That should not have been there of course. It was not sufficient in itself to reject the item but I became dissatisfied with the operation of a number of features. They were - 1. it would not record from the radio. Not at all from FM and on DAB I could get an mp3 file which had no sound on it. When I recorded the sound cut out from the speakers. I didn't know if that was normal or not. 2. Station presetting was mostly failure. Holding and holding the preset down and nothing happened usually - it did work but only sometimes. The instructions did not say how to alter a preset, for some reason, and I had to assume that any preset would be over written if one wanted to change it to another station by going thro the preset procedure. Nothing happened and I was left with several useless presets. 3. the +10 button on the remote was useless - all it would do was change the counter by one track at a time. Nothing would happen though, the counter reset itself to whatever was playing at the time. I did consult 3 Wisemonkeys on these issues and at the end of the day had to return the item as it just wasn't up to expectations. I found that regretful as the item did look nice. Anyway I did spot on many of the customer reviews that it was quite common for there to be like 10% of people giving items of this sort a one star rating. This one was a bit less than that I think but nevertheless once bitten twice shy as they say.
