Good Points
Dab works well, with very good sound quality.
Bad Points
CD player works when it feels like it.
General Comments
I bought a Hitachi AX-M68D DAB component system because I had an old Hitachi music centre that went on and on, so I decided to replace it with the same make and update to CD and DAB. That was my first mistake. The CD player would not play Cd's so I took it back to DIXONS and they replaced it. The new one did exactly the same, but has now packed up completely. The DAB is great. The sound quality is very good.

Commiserations, waldron010. I've had a lot to do with Hitachi products, which I have always found to work well, so there is definitely something suspicious in this instance.
<br>
<br>Bunty McBunty in another review of the AX-M68D muses whether the system is "an exclusive product line", and that coupled with the retailer (who must remain nameless!!) might give a clue.
<br>
<br>Said? retailer has been known to repackage returned goods and sell them again as brand-new. I have had my own experience of this underhand practice concerning a camcorder, so I am not relying on hearsay. Believe me, it gives me no pleasure to relate that fact.
<br>
<br>Your product is faulty and under the sale of goods/fitness for purpose act, you are entitled to demand a full refund of what you paid for the goods. Good luck with it all... Bertie.
