Product Description
Panasonic RC-CD600 Twin Dreamer is a sophisticated 2-piece CD clock radio with separate speakers, which integrates an AM/FM stereo clock radio with a CD player. A broad, full stereo sound is achieved by placing the second speaker cabinet away from the first. The RC-CD600 is CD-R/CD-RW compatible, so you can play your own favorite wake-up collection on recorded on a CD-recorder. The digital synthesized tuner has five memory presets. The system's clock is a dual alarm system with a battery backup. Besides, the Twin Dreamer also offers doze and sleep functions, a backlit LCD display and a convenient remote control.
Customer Reviews:
Good Unit With a Quirk.......2006-08-20
This is a good digital tuner unit, with solid sound quality, remote and an external antenna to improve station quality. We have had this radio for a couple of years now. I am writing this review to address the specific problem brought up by a previous reviewer, specifically that the buttons on the unit stop working. This too happened to us. After disconnecting the unit from the wall for a short period of time, we found that the buttons on the unit stopped working. At first all of the buttons were unresponsive and the unit would only respond to its remote, but at some point the side buttons came back to life and only the front ones continued to malfunction. Fortunately, after an extended power outage, the front buttons finally came back as well. This defect may recur in the future, at which point I'll try disconnecting the unit and removing the backup battery to affect a reset. The RC-CD600 is a good unit with a quirk.
A Very good product.......2006-02-02
A little pricey, but worth it. It is hard to find a CD Clock radio with digital tuning, decent sound quality and a large display clock. The clock display is actually LED, and much easier to read than LCD. Sound quality is good, better than most clock radios, stereo or mono, but certainly not as good as a Bose, CSW or Kloss. Some things miss the mark as other reviewers mention, gentle wake (alarm fades up slowly when it first goes off) would be a nice touch, and alarm 2 is buzzer only - a big fowl on Panasonic's part. Overall, a very good product with a few flaws, but after spending weeks looking, buying and returning other brands, I'll stick with this.
poor quality.......2005-01-14
I returned this item and took a big hit on restocking fees/ shipping, etc, so i am a bit bitter. i should have got it from amazon. why did i return it?
1) the build is poor quality plastic.
2) the sound was horrible. i could not get any decent radio stations. (i live near downtown) even the cd player was of mediocre quality.
Nice but no cigar.......2004-04-20
Very decent alarm clock, better than anything I've tried in this price range. Unfortunately, it missed on few features. It does not have Weekend mode like Philips (that's a real shame.) It does not have Gentle Wake as Sony. CD player has a bad glitch - the transport does not have memory so playback always starts not from the last position but from the first track. Well, second alarm can be only buzz.
Overall it's not bad. At least it has battery backup, which somehow is missing on many other (and quite expensive) alarm clocks.
Pretty nice overall, but spouse gets to wake to the buzzer.......2004-04-06
This was our second attempt to find a CD clock radio with battery backup and dual alarms. Reception is great, and audio quality is consistently Panasonic (great!) The battery backup will retain the time during power outages (not just for two minutes like some of the other units), but the "dual alarm" feature is slightly deceiving. With this unit, you can choose (for each alarm) whether the left, right, or both speakers will be triggered by the alarm. Unfortunately, "alarm 1" is CD or radio (with frequency and volume preset as part of the alarm), but "alarm 2" is the buzzer only. Granted, it is a relatively pleasant buzzer. This is yet-another piece of consumer electronics that is just this close to perfect, lacking only a tiny bit of software to overcome an obvious shortcoming.
