Cambridge SoundWorks i765 with SoundBlaster Wireless Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was disappointed with the quality of my i765. I purchased this because I was very pleased with the earlier Cambridge Soundworks CD740 I purchased. That CD740 has given me great sound for years, and never had a problem -- its still going strong. I thought the i765 would be essentially the same quality, but with the added benefit of the easy iPod connectivity. Its true the iPod connects nicely, but the unit operates less satisfactorily on two counts. First and most important, the CD/DVD player stopped recognizing and playing disks. Cambridge initially said this was possibly due to static buildup and gave me a relatively easy though annoying procedure which fixed it. However, after some time, that procedure stopped being effective and now the it just doesn't play CD's at all. The display says "No Disc" even when there is one inserted. The second issue is that the unit simply operates slowly. There is an unexpected 1-2 second delay after most commands. And even when the CD was working, it seemed to take 30 seconds before the unit would be able to play a disk after it was inserted. This isn't a major issue, but does take away from my perception of design quality and it definitely feels inferior to the CD740 unit. The cd740 made me a real Cambridge fan, but the 765i has made me look elsewhere for quality.

Tivoli Audio MSYCLA Music System Digital AM/FM/CD Hi Fi System with Classic Walnut/Beige Finish Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Received one as a gift. CD sounds great. MP3 input sounds great..
FM reception is terrible. You want it for the radio? --think twice.
I tried several amplified antennas, wire. Maybe a roof mounted
antenna with coax cable is necessary?
Cheap fm stereo boom-box gets MUCH better reception.
I had to send it back once as it just "died". Replacment
was 200.00.
