Review: Denon S-52 Wireless Network CD Music System

As I lack an XM subscription, I did not sample that service. And on the Internet radio front, the device also works with a Rhapsody subscription, but I don’t have that, and neither does anyone else I’ve ever met.

The S-52 can also plug into a drive via USB cable, giving yet one more music option.

The remote is also a plus- it can handle most of the device’s functions, and also works from more than 10-15 feet. Some remotes with this sort of product have much less of a range.

Drawbacks? There are but a few. The device is kind of a challenge to set up; its manual, while thick and filled with info, doesn’t make some of the functions especially easy to understand. In addition, while meta-data (track names and the like) is displayed while in radio and iPod mode, they are not displayed, for whatever reason, while listening in CD mode.

In all, for all the great things it does, the S-52 is highly recommended.
