Style, connectivity and quality; the Panasonic SCHC55db has got the lot!

Mounted on a shelf or wall, the slimline SC-HC55db will look good wherever you place it. Slimline speakers are complemented by a touch-free, powered door that automatically slides opens to reveal the space for CD and iPod/iPhone.

Yet, as good as it looks, the SCHC55db isn't just about style, it's about sound quality, too. With Panasonic's unique bamboo cone speaker drivers, this system sounds crisp and dynamic where others sound soft and tinny. Dual Passive radiators help to give a bass that's not just powerful by micro standards but also rhythmic and punchy. An enhanced feature for this 55 model is the addition of Pure Direct audio. This bypasses the processing circuits for the most accurate and purest sound quality possible. So that you can tune the sound exactly how you want it, the SC-HC55db also comes with a 4 preset eq. Select from Heavy, Clear, Soft, Vocal or just switch it off; the choice is yours. Finally, a surround sound setting gives a more spacious, wrap-around sound that's ideal in larger spaces.

It might be slim and sexy but this Panasonic micro system packs a lot in. Key to the SCHC55db's appeal is Bluetooth connectivity. Simply switch your smartphone or compatible Apple device to transmit in Bluetooth and you have fuss-free, wireless music. Another great new feature with the SCHC55 is the option of Internet radio via Apple app. Simply purchase the vTuner for Panasonic App for your iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad and enjoy a skilfully designed Internet radio interface for your home hi-fi. In addition to great connectivity there's also an FM/DAB radio, CD player and, of course, a very neat iPod/iPhone dock. With 30 FM and 20 DAB presets, all your local and national radio needs are taken care of by the SCHC55. The fluorescent display also makes it very clear as to what you're listening to. The CD has the advantage of being able to playback MP3 encoded discs. Perhaps the source most used by many is the iconic iPod/iPhone. Hidden behind a smoked door, the i-dock is safely protected and looks far neater than the often awkwardly placed docks. If you have a different brand of MP3 player then you can use the AUX input which has both high and normal level inputs for enhanced source matching.

With its slick good looks and class-leading connectivity, the Panasonic SCHC55db makes an irresistible choice.

DELIVERY INFORMATION

All orders are shipped via our friends at DPD, except high value desirable items such as plasma and LCD TVs over 37 inches, which are sent fully insured with a specialist carrier.

If this is your first order with us, please ensure that the only address you enter is the credit card billing address, as this is the only address to which we can deliver. If you have previously placed an order on our website, you will be offered an alternative delivery address if your order value is
less than £500. Also, ensure you only click the submit order button once, as it will take a minute or so to process.

Delivery occurs within 6 working days (unless ordered on a 1-3 working days service). If after this time you have still to take receipt of your order email webaftersales@richersounds.com providing your order number, name, address, and brief details of what you ordered. We strive to answer all queries within a working day, although at busy times we do ask that you bear with us. Please submit your query only once, as repeated emails/telephone calls only serves to slow down our response time and can result in further delays to your order.

All deliveries must be signed for. They will NOT be left in garages, sheds, outside loos, porches etc. You must examine the goods before signing for them to ensure they are in good condition - if packaging is damaged please do not accept goods. Instead notify us as soon as possible. If there is no-one in to sign for the goods, they will be taken back to the courier depot and a card left.

If we are out of stock of an item or there is a problem, we will contact you as soon as is possible.

 
DELIVERY TRACKING
