Sony CMT-DH7BT


Sony, when not getting beat by Apple in the MP3 player market, continues to turn out innovative new products in various consumer electronics categories. One of their latest, due out in May, is a case in point: the Bluetooth-enabled CMT-DH7BT micro home entertainment system.

The CMT-DH7BT, priced at around $300, lets you wirelessly sync it through Bluetooth technology to a compliable device for the purpose of streaming music wirelessly. Examples of devices which can be connected to the CMT-DH7BT include a Bluetooth-enabled PC, cell phone or MP3 player with an optional attached Bluetooth adapter. This feature is designed to let you enjoy music without worrying about having the right type of cable with which to connect your two devices.

Sony’s newest micro system is also designed to let you enjoy other wireless forms of audio entertainment and through Bluetooth connections. There’s an AM/FM tuner with 30 presets. There’s also XM or Sirius satellite radio readiness when you connect to an optional home satellite radio antenna and sign up for one of the two services.

Moving into more media-based entertainment features, the CMT-DH7BT gives you a couple of options. The first is traditional audio CD playback, bolstered by the ability to play CD-R/RW discs burned on a computer. As these discs often have MP3 audio files burned on them, this micro system can playback this type of audio format while also display ID3 tag information such as artist and song title on the CMT-DH7BT’s LCD display. DVD playback is also supported.

Other features of the CMT-DH7BT include a front loading disc design, 100 watts of total power, PC audio in (including digital music players), support via a 2.5mm jack, digital sound amplification, a tuned bass port, timer settings and an included remote control.

More information on the Sony CMT-DH7BT can be found at Sony’s Web site.

The best soundbars of 2024: a sound upgrade for your TV
Close up of Sonos logo on a Sonos Arc soundbar.

TVs keep getting better and better, but audio still continues to be the weak link in even the best QLEDs, OLEDs, and traditional LED-LCDs. But this is why most TV companies, and many dedicated audio brands, make soundbars.

Even if you’ve never owned a soundbar before, setting one up on a new TV is one of the easiest plug-and-play processes. And the best part is as long as all your components are connected to your TV, your soundbar can handle audio for each and every peripheral, including things like streaming devices, game consoles, and even your gaming PC.
