Majority OAKINGTON DAB DAB FM Radio CD Player With Bluetooth Micro HIFI System

The Majority Oakington has great sound quality, a retro look and is easy to use.

Overall, the Majority Oakington (refurbished) is proving to be great value for money (purchased less than two weeks ago). The sound, both from DAB and CD functions is crisp and clear and it has a classy slightly retro look to the unit (walnut finish). I enjoy music and radio plays and the Bluetooth function works well through my mobile. The CD player is neat and easy to use but I think it could potentially be a little fragile so take care when inserting discs.

The one real let down is the LED display which is so dim I can only read the information on it when standing a few inches away on the same level as the unit. After some reflection I decided that the sound quality overrode any initial disappointment with the poor display. I had read previous reviews that cited this issue though I'm unsure why the manufacturers can't provide a decent display when it's one of the features people are paying for? The remote control is quite cheap looking but functional, and actually very useful as the symbols on the manual function buttons on the front of the system are small and silver so again can only be disciphered close up. Because it's a refurbished model it only has a three month warranty so fingers crossed that it continues to perform as well as it does presently. I believe bought new that the model do has a good three year warranty.Read full review

Majority Oakington DAB radio CD

This DAB radio CD player works well but it’s actions are a little ponderous when it changes from one mode to another - it’s rather slow.
The lightning up of the display is woeful, as other people have commented, and if you have it on a surface above your head you might as well not have a display at all as it cannot be seen.
The hand controller works ok and is a lot better than a different, well known, brand that we had to send back. Overall I think it’s alright and not that tricky to program and easy to use when you have.
If you need instructions in English as your German isn’t quite up to scratch (they seem to only come auf Deutsch) then you can easily find them on line if you put in the make etc.Read full review

Impressive unit.

The sound quality and volume are impressive for a unit this size. The DAB radio picks up more stations than I thought possible. Alarm feature works well. My only criticism is that the sleep function just cuts off the music rather than fade out. But I am very pleased with my purchase. So much so that I bought a second one.Read full review

Sounds great, but for fm or dab you must to have or find a properly position for a good signal.

Since '80 i've triyed many brands like akai,technics, panasonic,sharp,also cambridge audio,harman-kardon,luxman.
Loudspeakers, like tannoy,celestion,bose,rft...i'm not a beginner....and believe me that thing sounds great for his price and dimensions.
On the other hand ...in my opinion, if somebody want to improove ...to get something new, i'll put a pair of small tweeters and an antenna soket for a better reception. Hope you will underdtand me.
Anyway, it sounds verry good.Read full review

Battery question not appropriate.

The sound quality is excellent. Good variation controls to tailor the sound to your own particular choice. Very sophisticated for the price!
Smart looking piece of kit.
Useful remote control. Very responsive, no need to aim directly at the unit. Takes some time to connect and start playing compared to Ruark!
Very useful range of facilities including CD Player.
Slight downside: Instruction book printed in German, but not insurmountable with a download from the Internet.
Only had the unit a short while, but hopefully it will prove a reliable music centre.
Would highly recommend on build quality and value for money.Read full review

Impressive and looks cool.

On taking it out of the box, was delighted with the look of it. Really nice wood and metal contrast, got a retro sort of feel to it.

The sound is excellent for such a compact device! Impressive volume and resonance. The ability to change the sound types (rock, classical, pop etc.) is noticeable and ideal for applying based on what you are listening to.

The DAB is great too, picks out the channels easily enough and the digital display is clear in showing what is playing on what channel.

Very handy having a remote too. All in all brilliant for the price and could go anywhere in the home and look great.Read full review

Good value for money but lacks facilities.

Sound quality is very good but it is not user friendly with the remote .The earphone socket is on the back and not easy to locate. Front access would be preferable, but value for money the unit is excellent.Read full review
