| 1449363 | 2018-05-08 01:06:00 | I haven't kept up with home audio & are looking at something to replace our 25 year old system. Having a look on line but would appreciate any recommendations Looking for something with similar sound to a PC 5.1 system. Bluetooth, USB input, FM radio, not too expensive. |

| 1449366 | 2018-05-08 03:15:00 | Looks good. At the rsk of banging on coz you know what you want, have you listened to some of these bluetooth speakers? If not, you might be surprised. But if the radio and CD player is a dealbreaker then I'll shut up now :) EDIT: I should have scrolled down the page - just noticed the bluetooth/wireless option. Is the $369.00 NZ dollars? Seems a good option. |

| 1449367 | 2018-05-08 03:38:00 | Here's our old system we will be replacing. www.amazon.com I was surprised to even find a picture. We've still got a stack of cd's, but have copied all the cassette tapes to MP3 We use the radio all the time, but occasionally have the urge to play something from the archives. At the moment we cant play mp3's unless I use a PC. |

| 1449368 | 2018-05-08 05:39:00 | Best bet would be to go to JB Hifi / Noel Lemmings / appliance shed etc so you can hear what you're buying. You cant tell what they sound like from the pic's :-) Also , if the radio has good reception in the shop, thats a good sign for when you take it home. this one looks less plasticy space shippy . Bigger speakers should give less tinny sound (hopefully) www.panasonic.com |
