Denon S-52DAB

 

iPod integration is a step ahead of the other models here: the LCD screen displays your iPod's contents and menu systems, and you can control everything using the remote control. The other models here let you skip tracks and adjust the volume, but...

Excellent iPod integration. Superb audio quality. Also includes DAB, FM and web radio

Ugly styling. Expensive for those who want just an iPod dock

Denon S52-DAB

 

The Denon S52-DAB is a wireless network music system. It can serve as a CD player, an FM radio and an iPod dock. It also has a DAB digital radio and online radio streaming capabilities. You can use your CD or USB device and the Denon S52 will be able...

This certainly isn't the prettiest desktop music system we've come across, and at £500 it's not the cheapest either, but the sound quality and versatility are excellent. Denon S52-DAB is tagged with DAB radio, Denon, streamer and iPod. Select a tag...

Denon S52DAB

 

Great radio streaming, great sound, easy to use once set up. Works fantastically well on UK boradband internet.

Difficult to set up due to poor user manual (maybe I'm just getting old). Doesnt charge the Iphone 3G when connected to the docking port. Quite expensive. Needs a larger buffer in lower speed internet connections (eg Africa where I spend half my time).

Denon S52DAB

 

excellent integration of the various media formats so they can be played on one machine - Would definitely call this a serious and weighty music machine. Very substantial sound for a relatively small box with bags of Oomph but - why oh why are there no...

Too much bass sometimes - if only there were some tone controls. No onboard battery so if you unplug from mains you have to reset the clock every time you power it up. Radio reception requires a mass of aerial spaghetti hanging out the back - spoiling...

really easy to set up , including the Internet Radio and playing music from any of our computers is really great. I had the whole system working in 15 miniutes.

No control over sound tone, but the sound it produces is very good

Denon S52DAB

 

This is an excellent unit. It covers all areas, the sound quality is superb and in all honesty it is more suited as a HIFI unit, rather than be delegated to a Kitchen or Bedroom. I can't understand why some owners have a problem with its Bass output -...

A little slow to respond to commands from the remote - thats all..
