Pros & Cons
Pros
We are very happy with this purchase and will update this review if anything quits working. This is smart, though. The nfc and bluetooth are fantastic. The remote control is excellent, btw.
Easy to set up and pair with ipod, iphone. The bluetooth is easy to pair. There is a way to keep the clock displayed while the unit is off.
It looks smaller than pictured, but has a great sound for its size. Everyone who visits my house mentions how good this system sounds. No question you want a small jam system, this is it!
The sound is remarkable and has a bass booster for those who want plenty of bass. The eq button just gives you bass and treble adjustment, and those seem to mostly affect the very top and bottom ranges.
The design of the system is timeless and classy. I'm no audiophile by any means but after years of listening to mp3s and streaming services it was very refreshing to load up a good old cd. I love that it recognizes folders on cds and on a flash drive ... Read More
Cons
Other than that, the sound is not clear, or articulate.
There's no memory to retrieve. Flashes standby, no way to fix. We now need to mail it to the sony tech support center for them to diagnose the problem.
The player sometimes skips some tracks and other times it skips when playing a particular track. The player simply freezes, not a skip or a hiccup like from a scratch. Potential of very noisy mechanical whirring noticed between cd tracks in shuffle mo... Read More
Highlights
Quality
Very good sound, easy to set-up and operate.
The sound quality, volume, and ease of operation all met and even exceeded my expectation.
Let’s actually start with its flows after 2 years of use:- cd player is very slow - it’s takes several seconds to open cd tray ... Read More
Loud power spikes and the left channel fades in and out now.
Price
I subsequently found this sony for $30 cheaper and am absolutely thrilled with it.
Music to my ears i couldn't ask for more and a great price
I think it is a good purchase for the price i paid ($179.
We bought the system for only $168, but think the price went up, after we bought it last christmas shopping season.
Shipping
I received my order yesterday and it was easy to set up.
I received a sony cmtsbt100 micro music system from secondipity ahead of the scheduled delivery.
I live out in the country and am receiving channels i've never received before - you can preset 20 fm stations and 10 am stations.
Packaging/appearance
I was impressed by the dedication of the seller to carefully package the system that is in new condition and works as it should.
It has a cool blue and white light on the underside front of the unit, perfect for reading tracks on cd packages if it's dark.
It looks smaller than pictured, but has a great sound for its size.
Competitiveness
The entire unit is a higher quality than the yamaha and does so much more than bose, which is 3 times as expensive and does not... Read More
I researched a lot of systems before deciding to buy the sony cmtsbt100, but the reviews on amazon convinced me it was the best... Read More

This is a decent bookshelf system
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
My peeve is that when playing a cd the system has to read and copy i assume every track and put it into some sort of digital memory

There is no insert a disk and play
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The disc is inserted and then you wait for it to read it then you can press play

But it can be done without an audio preamp as i previously thought
