The Sony Cmt-cpx11 Is A Great Little Mini System!
The Sony CMT-CPX11 is a great little mini system! Love it and the fact that it has a four CD changer than a 3 cd for most of them in this time frame.

My First Hi-fi Review. The Sony Cmt-cpx11 Micro Hi
My first hi-fi review. The Sony CMT-CPX11 micro hi-fi system. I am not dissapointed, it is an excellent hi-fi. For its size, the power is huge at 2x75 watts (European version).
There are other different power versions of this hi-fi, US version at 2x50 watts which is cheaper.
However the speaker jacks are unknown to me and I don't know how to fit other make speakers. If you know how, please do tell me as I would be very grateful.
Thanks for reading my review.
The amplifier is rated at 75 watts per channel at 4 ohms so should have no difficulty driving speakers rated at 100 watts each. The speakers don't actually draw 100 watts, its just how much power they can handle. Just don't try to drive them from the headphone socket, use the speaker terminals on the back of the Sony unit. Also, don't be tempted to drive more than the one pair of speakers unless you know how to connect them up. Finally, make sure you get the polarity correct (ie positive to positive, negative to negative) on each speaker else the sound gets a bit muddied. The speakers should be marked + - or red/black and speaker wire usually has one wire with a stripe so you can tell easily.
Well I was wondering if 2 speakers rated at 100 watts each would work in this hifi would I need an amplifier in order to listen to them or would there be enough power? Please let me know, thank you very much. BomBom
Try a Kyosho race pack connector - £1.39 ea (you need two)from Maplin. You will need to cut off the clip part of the outer cover to allow the pins to penetrate. You simply crimp the connectors onto the wires and push them home into the housing where they snap into place (don't do this until you are sure it's a good joint as you won't get them out again!).
Be sure to check polarity of the cables as these will fit either way around unlike the proper Sony ones, I suggest you mark one wire on each connector if not already done.
Even if you short circuit the speakers you won't do any damage as Sony built in protection and the unit switches off. To re-set it you need to remove the fault, disconnect at the mains and switch on again (see the manual under trouble-shooting).
As you can tell, I've done this as I wanted to extend my speakers and also fit an extension to the headphone socket so I could sit in my comfy chair and plug in. It was during this that I inadvertently shorted the speakers to the headphone socket so know it works!
Maplin have an on-line shop so you should trace the component easily. If not, you may pick up one from a model shop locally.

After Looking Around The Market For Absolutely Age
After looking around the market for absolutely ages I was looking for a small microsystem around the 150 mark. However for a bit more the Sony CMT-CPX11 really is excellent. With an all new digital sound it plays CD's like never before. Turn it on a low volume you can hear the music perfectly unlike some other systems.
On a higher volume the music really is a treat. It looks great and its compact design means its very versatile.
This truly is a great musical system from SONY.
hi i got one of these hi-fis and i was wondering can you fit other made speakers to it? please tell me how i would really apreciate the help. thanks.

I Bought The Sony Cmt-cpx11 System After Looking A
I bought the Sony CMT-CPX11 system after looking around at a few Microsystems in the under £300 price bracket. Couldn't find a single review for the thing on the net, so this may well be the only one and I hope it helps you make your decision.
The CMT-CPX11 is small and beautiful, with sound that is BIG, but equally beautiful. The system is built as only Sony know how. I have no idea how something so small can weigh so much, but it just reackes of quality! There is no CD multichanger, but these always go wrong, and it plays MP3 CDs which last for hours anyway! Best of all it is totally MP3Pro compatible, so you can fit lots more tunes onto that CD at CD-quality than with standard MP3!
The tuner seems fine, and the system gives great sound from my FM Stereo channels.
There's a tape player (which records) if you still have the odd mix tape your 1st girlfriend made for you lying about and wish to reminisce from time to time, but to be honest, Sony would have done better to supply an MD player or just leave it out altogether and save space!
Despite the lack of multiband graphic equaliser and surround sound functinality, the strongest point of this system is it's beautiful sound. I put it down to the speakers more than the S-Master amp, as each of them weighs a ton, and I'm quite sure they'd survive a drop from a 3rd storey window (although I wouldn't want to be standing underneath)! With rich, resonant lows and crystal clear highs, the sound beats every other system in this price bracket hands down... and that's without having to set up a 20 band graphic or fiddling through 10 preset sounds you'll never use.
If that's not enough, the CMT-CPX11 also makes a very attractive bedside alarm clock, that will allow you to wake up to your choice of CD, cassette or radio station!
