Sony CMT-DH7BT

Add as a preferred source on Google


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.

The Sonos app is getting a substantial usability overhaul. Familiar bottom tabs should make it easier to move around, while customizable speaker ordering could take some friction out of managing a multiroom system.

Sonos community manager ShaunFromSonos announced that the release may take up to two weeks to reach everyone. Once it arrives, users must switch on Enable Improved Navigation in the app’s settings to unlock the new layout and sorting tools.

Spotify is rolling out a new AI-powered conversational feature that lets Premium users talk directly to the app about what they want to hear. Users can type or speak a request and refine the results through follow-up questions instead of manually searching for a song, podcast, or audiobook.

The feature is available from Spotify’s Home and Now Playing screens and works much like a personal audio assistant. It can choose what plays, answer questions about the current track or album, recommend something new, and look through your listening history to provide more personalized responses.
