    ★★★★★

    written by Thomas Lockey on 25/11/2007

    A review of the Panasonic SC-PM27 - Very Good sound with nice EQ settings. Fills the room with sound and is amazing for such a small unit. Annoy the neighbours entirely when the SUPERSOUND button is pressed, never fails to surprise the guests. Awesome machine all in all well recomended!!!!!!!!!!

    Overall, I have owned this Panasonic for about 4 years and had no problems at all (touch wood).

    “I listened to a dozen or more systems before getting...”

    ★★★★★

    written by Dan Leigh. on 27/04/2003

    I listened to a dozen or more systems before getting the Panasonic SC-PM 27, which I chose for the unusual speaker design, after NOT being able to find anything I liked.

    It was bought to replace a two-year-old, un-repairable Sony that cost twice as much. It's for a workroom, and the two sat side-by-side for a week or so. It took a few days to realize that the Panasonic sounded better than the Sony.

    The speaker specs are 55 to 25K Hz, which explains it. That is really good for such small speakers, almost defying the laws of physics. To my ears the sound is even, without too much high or low bias. I heard things on familiar CDs that I hadn't heard before.

    Supersound is a glorified loudness control - like loudness on steroids. I rarely use it, but it's good for recordings made from old LPs and the like, played at low volume level. There's a normal loudness setting, too (it's the closest to what I would set on a "real" stereo at low volume); there's also a setting with the highs reduced (which I never use), and one with both highs and lows reduced, which I use when I don't want to disturb anybody upstairs.

    Who wouldn't set the clock? Takes 10 seconds; 1st thing one would do after plugging in - so I never found out that it wouldn't turn off without the clock being set. Not a real issue. Not sure that's right, either; I've used mine after a power cut with no problem.

    Mine has been used all day, every day, since I got it last December, and it not only hasn't done anything odd, ever, (I haven't blocked off any vents), it plays my own and several other peoples' CD-Rs and CD-RWs just fine.

    There's no extraneous noise on tape playback at all. Beats the Sony hands down there.

    The radio pulls in a few more distant FM stations than the Sony.

    The volume control reads in minus Db's, reading down from max volume. This is standard Panasonic; my son's older one is the same. They're just numbers. Not worth thinking about.

    Compared the sound to big Altec-Lansings at brother-in-laws, and nice studio monitors at sister's. Beats the big speakers when they're badly placed.

    I have one of my speakers on its side. They're 1/3 of the way in from the side walls of the room. Having the one on its side distributes the sound better; there's no concentrated stereo "sweet spot" - I can hear everything well as I move around my large workshop table.

    Close one's eyes and this is very close to real Hi-Fi.

    ★★☆☆☆

    written by Lori Macka. on 08/01/2003

    Very nice looking unit. The sound is lovely but the volume indicator is irritating. It is in decibels but reversed. So when the volume is turned right down it reads 76Db and when you crank up the unit full bore it reads 0Db. What the? Unfortunately I've had alot of trouble with mine. See bad points, so I returned it for a refund.

    “Bought a Panasonic SC-PM27 in December 2002 from...”

    ★☆☆☆☆

    written by Mike Crane. on 04/01/2003

    Bought a Panasonic SC-PM27 in December 2002 from Panther UK, Wembley. The unit is rubbish. After 5 weeks the CD interchanger has packed up so the unit cannot be played. The dB indicator works in reverse and the unit cannot be switched off without setting the clock. Firm recommendation is to leave this unit alone. Service from both Panasonic and the retailer, Panther has been awful to date but I am working on it.

    “Purchased Panasonic SC-PM 27 Micro system for £173...”

    ★★★★★

    written by PJ2002. on 16/10/2002

    Purchased Panasonic SC-PM 27 Micro system for £173 online and its proved to be worth every penny. The unit looks very stylish with its mirrored front and angled speakers, its also very compact.
    The sound from this unit is very crisp and well ballanced with some preset sound available as well as "supersound" which really kicks in the sideways facing woofers.
    Along with a 5 CD programable autochanger, 2 band RDS tuner, auto reverse cassette deck and of course remote control what more could you want?
