    We have really enjoyed this stereo. The sound quality is excellent. The controls have a bit of a learning curve, and even now, some nights I still wonder how did it do that! It will not shuffle between disks which is a downer, but I still highly recommend it.

    Those looking for a CD player beware

    I got this unit a little over a year ago from Best Buy on significant markdown. The bluetooth receiver works fine. I don't listen to the radio much anymore, but the radio receiver works fine too. The sound quality is pretty good given the size of the unit. The issue is that the CD player function, which is what I primarily bought it for, is very hit or miss. I'm a GenXer with a sizeable CD collection and some of my CDs are not available on music streaming platforms, so it's nice to have a CD player so I can listen to those. This is the second multi-disc player I've purchased in the past half decade and both turned out to have serious issues. The other was an Onkyo 6 disc CD carousel that worked fine for a year and a half or so but now every CD I put in it skips like crazy. I bought it to replace an old Yamaha multi disc carousel that lasted for 25-30 years. Anyway, this Sharp unit was marked down and seemed like a good deal so I bought it. CD playback was fine for a month or so. Then, it stopped playing certain CDs entirely. Others certain tracks would reliably skip. These are not CDs I ripped but CDs I purchased from stores. All of these CDs play flawlessly on an old 90s era under cabinet mount CD player clock radio that we have in our kitchen, so the CDs are in good enough shape to play on other devices. Honestly, none are significantly scratched or anything. So, I contacted Sharp about the issue and they said the unit doesn't support MP3 file formats and thought the issue was a file format incompatibility. Well, all of these CDS are purchased from stores and presumably NOT MP3 files, nor are they Apple music file formats. Besides which, after resetting the unit one of the CDs that refused to play before the reset played back flawlessly. But then within a few days it no longer played back at all, once again. That is not a file format issue - there's no way resetting the unit could have made it suddenly capable of reading file formats that aren't supported only to STOP reading those formats a few days later. The CD itself...the file format isn't changing. So, it's some other problem. Anyway, it does play most of my CDs flawlessly. Others there's some minor skipping on certain tracks, or it just won't play certain tracks. Others it will detect the CD well enough to count the tracks but can't play a single note of music. And then there are CDs I insert and it says "no disc" so it isn't reading those at all. I'd guesstimate that it fails in some way to acceptably play about a quarter to a third of the CDs I try to play. I've heard that CDs are starting to come back as a popular music format...well, based on my 0-2 experience with recently purchased players I have to say consumer electronics brands are going to have to improve their quality by leaps and bounds because a music format can't come back into vogue if the players they build to play that format won't. So, I give it 2 stars based on the sound quality and the fact that two of the three functions work fine, but really, it shouldn't be this hard to find a decent quality multi disc CD player in this day and age.

    I was glad to find a system that had all the features I need. Of course it won't be perfect as CD players are not a home sound system priority for electronics companies to make, but it does the job--CDs and Bluetooth and the very occasional radio reception--just fine. But I've had to unplug it because the display is non-stop even when the device is "off" It's like Times Square, don't have it in your bedroom at night if you like any level of dark. Houseguests sleeping in the living room can see the movement of the display bouncing off the walls of the adjacent room where it's located. A minor issue but if you like your music in the dark in your room it might cause a problem. Times Square I am not exaggerating (that much)!

    I was replacing another bookshelf system and Oh My Goodness this one is soooo much better. The sound quality outmatched my old one by far. I love the remote control and just the quality is well worth the small price

    The sound is excellent for its size and price. I ran one speaker on longer wires to the opposite side of the bookcase with great results. The CD player is finicky. Let it take its time to warm up and slowly read the disk, and then it works.

    I wanted a small system with quality sound -- the Sharp 5-Disc Micro system gave me that and more! I have turned off my TV except for a few select programs and turned on my Sharp 5-Disc system. Nerves improving thanks to great sounds/music coming from my Sharp! I'm more than happy with my purchase.
