Sony CMT-HX90BTR Micro reviews

Here’s a list of the questions other shoppers have asked owners of the Sony CMT-HX90BTR

1. We have a Sony MHC WZ5 system on which the CD tray has been damaged. Can the turntable we have with that system plug in to this one?

2. I have purchased a Sony Micro Hi Fi CMT-BX77DBi. There is interference on the radio when I use the lead antenna supplied. The leaflet suggests using a DAB external antenna. Could anyone recommend a good one to use? Thank you
   
   Neil asked on 05 Jul 2011
   1. I'm not quite sure Neil, it could be your location. I purchase the same system and the DAB is perfect without external antena.

   2. Hi Neil, my system and sound works perfectly without any other antenna. Have you tried it in a different location and perhaps putting the antenna higher up ?

3. could i connect this system to an amplifier?

   1. No afraid not, the amp is integrated like most hi-fi systems. No inputs or outputs for an auxillary or amp , only a digital coaxial input lead.

7. Hi, I am thinking of buying this and I was wondering whether any one has connected it up to a turn table and how the sound quality is, i.e lound enough? I dont think there are ports for the yellow/red cable however I have an adapter to convert them both from the turntable into normal audio jack.

   1. There are no input sockets on this unit at all other than for the antenna. This is a link to the manual but I don't see how you could connect a turntable to it.

   2. the only fitting I can see is one which would suit an ipod touch/nano

9. i am thinking of buying this item , the system i have at the moment has a volume which goes up from the number 1 , but this is still a bit on the loud side at times do you think this system is more controllable
   
   cecilie asked on 27 Dec 2011
   1. It depends, all systems sounds varies and to say whether it'd be ok for would be subjective. To the best of my knowledge, all digital volume control starts from 1 and upto to it max, and all level of noise or sound impact varies from brands to models.
      
      I think what you should do is to pop down to your local Curry's, Comet, etc where you could able to test it. May i suggest that you go there when it is really quiet so that you'd able to guage volume more appropriately.

   2. Yea it does go pretty quiet but I'm not sure how quiet you want it! It's a really good system tho

10. I am thinking of buying this product, but only have an iphone and not and ipod, is it compatiable with iphone, and does it charge iphone whilst plugged in to dock?
    
    
    
    Louise asked on 01 Feb 2012
    1. Yes i believe it does but you will need to get a plastic surround to support the phone this is explianed in the manual
       
       James replied on 02 Feb 2012

        
    2. Yes, it is compatible with I phone and you can charge from base. Produces a very good sound.
