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)

20 years ago I had 3 Panasonic shelf system stereos in my home. Loved them. Downsized over the years & still have one with great sound, but the cd tray is starting to get stuck (after 20 years!) and there's no bluetooth connection. (Yes, I still enjoy some old cds.) So I replaced it with this one since Panasonic has such a great history with me. Super easy to hook up, took all of 5 minutes. Easy to operate, bluetooth connects fine. Sound is not as nice as my old unit, but it's close enough. Bass & treble are not bad at all , presets aren't that impressive which makes the separate bass/treble dials useful, and the volume is amazing. CD fidelity is better than the bluetooth & radio sounds ( they're somewhat muffled) ,which is a little disappointing. But at this price range the sound is very good. This looks nice and is also small so it can fit in many places & I hid this behind a chair and it fills the sun room & adjacent kitchen with sound nicely. I would have paid more for another Panasonic with better speakers, but couldn't find one anywhere. CD players are disappearing. This fits my needs for a small unit that plays FM, cds, and bluetooth with decent sound and bass at a decent price.

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.

Very nice system for a reasonable price! Good clear sound, easy to operate and while it's not my old Pioneer SX 626, can crank the Panasonic up and enjoy some rock and roll!

Ultimately we were forced to return the Panasonic PM700-PP because, while the sound quality was quite good, it was unable to play about 40% of our CDs. If you are not heavily invested in CDs as we are, you might like this unit for Bluetooth, USB and FM radio play. PROS: Good sound quality, adequate bass/treble, good stereo separation. Ease of setup and use. Both remote and unit operation are straightforward. CONS: The unit is very selective about which burned CDs it will play. Recorded CDs must be “Audio” or “Music” CDs. Music recorded to data discs rarely worked. About 40% of burned CDs did not function. In addition, it failed to play about 10% of purchased CDs. This was especially disappointing considering that the OEM CD player in our Nissan Rogue and our previous player, a Bose WAVE, had no such problems with these discs. Minor annoyance - CDs do not “autostart” when loaded; if a CD is readable one still needs to select “play” on the remote (?!?), and there is no option to change to an autoplay mode.

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.

I really miss the old days of loud stereos that you could really FEEL that music & rock the windows! Now, while this will definitely not rock any windows, it's good for a smaller spaces and sounds good...AND if you put it on a table near the end of a couch & lie down (with it behind your head), it's EXCELLENT!! You can REALLY hear and feel the sound (just like those old days!) - and THAT is pretty awesome! Good old-fashioned musical therapy, ya know? :) There are several equalizer settings you can choose from, plus you can adjust bass and treble as well. It paired very easily w/my phone when I tried the bluetooth option. Both CD & bluetooth worked well. It also has an FM option w/an easy to use antenna that plugs into the back securely. There is also a USB port on the back if you need one of those. The lighted display is very easy to read & the instruction manual is good. The remote control is excellent & I really like it. It's built so much better than the cheap, thin, little annoying ones I've used before. (note: the remote does takes one AA battery which is not included) Overall, this is a small but mighty little sound machine - and when I say "mighty", I mean listening to it on my couch like I mentioned. Otherwise, it is just fine for basic, good music in a room(just not at a window shaking level). Because it's not too heavy, it's very easy to move if you decide to use it somewhere else. Just unplug it from the wall, then unplug the speaker wires(the ol' red/red, black/black wire attachment) and bam - it can easily be moved around. I really like that option too. Overall, for the price, it's a good deal, but the sheer awesomeness it has when you listen to it on a couch w/it near your head is worth every penny! I felt like I was 14 yrs old again drowning in some good music....love it!

First I bought cheap CD no name players ranging in price from $66 to $165 and had to return them because either they didn't work at all or one had a player with "pops" like you'd hear on an old vinyl record no matter how new or old or wiped with alcohol the CD was. Then I bought this Panasonic and it's a dream. Less than 5 minutes to set up. Great sound. Treble and bass controls. Round volume knob for quick and easy volume adjustment. Easy Bluetooth hook up. Controls on both the remote and the unit. Nice looking. CD function nice and smooth. Let me tell you, avoid the no name brands!

I’m glad I got the 80 watt system instead of the 20 watt one. The sound is excellent and clear! The remote works well but don’t lose it because it controls most of the features. The only thing it doesn’t have that I’d like is, there is no balance control (can’t make one speaker louder than the other). I like its size, fits well on a dresser. It plays CD-R. If CD is boomy sounding, there’s a few settings to adjust easily. I haven’t tried the USB or the Bluetooth yet.

Muy bien minicomponente con buenos graves y agudos, lastima que no cuenta con línea auxiliar pero para lo que realmente necesito que son la reproducción de discos me va muy bien, reconsideren si es internacional por los taxes

Boa qualidade, mas o som é pouco potente, mesmo para ambiente caseiro.

I just set it up and works great. Love the sound. Worth the money.

Gran sonido considerando su tamaño audio, Hi-Fi calidad de los materiales y simpleza para usar

Excellent produit. Belle qualité. Fonctionne parfaitement. Le son est fort et clair. Format assez petit, il est discret et chic. Facile à installer. Facile à utiliser. Un petit système surprenant qui nous offre des heures de plaisir à écouter nos vieux CD! Dépasse nos attentes. Très satisfait de notre achat!
