Technics SC-DV290

I have had mine for over five years now and I still love it which for someone like me who is always after the newest gadgets is quite rare. I just love the fact that it is easy to use and you have everything you need. Home cinema, mp3 player, great sound, 5 disc changer dvd & cd. It isn't multi regional and i'm not sure that it can be changed so if you have a lot of region1 dvds etc don't buy it. The sound quality is good and the surround sound could rival most of the modern sytems in this price range. The radio is quick to set up and tune. The only problem I have had is the control had to be replaced recently but it was easy enough to get hold of but even then it ...  Read the complete review

I was surfing through E-bay at the week end and saw a numnber of the component parts of this system available for sale so I thought I would write a review just in case anyone is tempted to purchase. We bought this Technics HiFi about 5 years ago. We were in the process of having our front room redecorated after a water leak and decided that we would treat ourselves to a new Hi fi. We chose this one as it seemed to have the best sound of those we heard in the shop even though its difficult to get a decent sound in the shop - at nearly £400 it was a bit more than we had wanted to pay but as it gave us the sound options that we were looking for we decided to opt ...  Read the complete review

This is a system I owned a while ago but as I saw an advert for it recently I figured it must still be going strong so I decided to do a review on it. The Technics SCDV290 set me back nearly £300 a few years back but I see it can now be purchased for the much more modest sum of £179.99. This system comes in four stacking parts consisting of the tuner, the tape decks (which are pretty much redundant these days), the 5xdvd player and the Dolby 5.1 amplifier. The system comes with a very simple to understand installation and users guide which makes it very easy to install. The system itself is very durable and both feels and looks expensive, the cables ...  Read the complete review

I was bought this stereo setup for my 21st birthday after months of listening to mates opinions and reading reviews. The stereo consists of 4 main units the amplifier, thetape deck, the cd/dvd multichanger and the radio tuner. Straight from the box it is quite easy to setup, with the manual giving clear and simple step by step instructions. The wires for the two main speakers are not particularly long, however this was not a problem for me as i have a realitivly small room. The dvd/cd player is a 5 disc changer and looks good from the second you remove it from the box (as does the rest of the stereo). and the playback of disks is very good, even on my 10 year ...  Read the complete review
