User Review: C 545BEE CD Player - sounds great when it works.

June 8, 2010

Products: C 545BEE CD Player

I purcaased my 545BEE in February but last week it started switching itself on & poening, then closing the CD tray. It also stopped responding to the facia controls. On playing a CD, it will stop a random in the middle of a track & the display reverts to total track number / time display. Having previously owened a 521 & 521BEE I am very disappointed. I was expecting much better from a company with such a good reputation.

We are aware of the the hardware issue described by some C 545BEE owners and we understand their frustration. The problem of the front panel keys not working properly was due to some faulty switches, which affected a specific range of production on the C 545BEE. Since this problem has been reported by our consumers, we have worked to resolve the issue by replacing the faulty switches with an entirely new type of switch. We have found this solution to be successful. If you do experience this issue, please contact your dealer or local distributor who can fix it for you. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.
