Denon D-F101S Micro Stereo System Specifications

The power, compact Denon D-F101S Micro Stereo System includes a CD player, integrated amplifier and tuner, and stereo bookshelf speakers, and it’s sized just right for adding to a living room, bedroom, kitchen, or home office. The separate CD player and receiver offer a space-saving depth of just 9.8 inches and luxurious aluminum front panels. The system replicates the same engineering expertise found in larger, high-end Denon models, including discrete amplifier outputs for clear stereo separation, a large transformer for robust yet stable power (an impressive 70 watts x 2 into the supplied Mission bookshelf speakers), and a high-capacity heat sink.

The AM/FM tuner has a 40-station preset memory and the single-disc CD player is compatible with your own music mixes burned to CD-R/RW discs. The CD player also offers a 96-kHz, 24-bit D/A converter for utterly faithful sound reproduction with wide dynamic range and clear, detailed sound, and an 8-times oversampling digital filter to restore analog naturalness to digital sound.

The pair of acoustically matched speakers are designed and engineered by Denon, but with the added sound tuning expertise of acclaimed European Speaker Designers. They each feature a 0.75-inch sheer microfiber soft dome tweeter and a 4.5-inch woofer made of a woven-glass composite for rich, dynamic sound with detailed midrange and extended, open-sounding high frequencies. The speakers are constructed of high quality MDF and finished in an attractive European white-wood grain finish, with hi-end 5-way binding posts, permitting a wide variety of speaker cable/connection choices.

Convenience features include tone controls (bass, treble, loudness), dimmable display brightness (4 stages), auto function change (for one-touch switching from one sound source to another), a sleep timer (to automatically turn off the system in 10-minute increments up to 60 minutes), and an everyday timer (to automatically turn on/off the system at the same time each day).

[if This shelf system arrived earlier this week and I wasted no time setting it up in my small living room as my primary audio system. It takes the place of my Bose Wave Radio/CD and I certainly consider it an upgrade. I have listened to a number of different genres and artists on this new system, and what really impresses me are the live recordings. The imaging is fantastic. I can pick out easily the placement of the different instruments in the live recording. Studio recordings are all lively and crystal clear. The bass, with the speakers about six inches from the wall, is sufficient for my tastes, and definitely more thumping than my Bose. I cannot really gauge the FM or AM reception because I stick with XM, but it comes with two antennaes for both bands. Also, I have not tested the sleep modes, timers, or alarms because this is in my living room, and there is no need for me to use them. This system is strictly for my listening pleasure and it really delivers. I have a Squeezebox (made by Slim Devices, which I also highly recommend) on top of the system and aesthetically the entire system is alluring.
My one dislike is the remote. Its plasticky and feels cheap. It is also more bulky than it needs to be.
If you have the money to spend, and I admit the price is up there compared to other shelf systems, you will not be disappointed. I am not an audiophile (only because I don't have thousands to throw around) and I can't give you many technical details on why this system sounds so good. But I do know that Denon is a good brand, and they back up their stereos and components with good warranties. I give this five strong stars and recommend it to anybody interested in a great sounding stereo.]

Bold – Marlowe Canady – Seattle
Very sosphisticated audio system. This is beautiful visually and the sound is very bold. It sounds as if I bought a more expensive sound system. Wether rock, r&b, and jazz it has own flavor. I made the right choice.

Fits my needs perfectly! – Bruce – San Diego, CA
I purchased this system for use with a laptop on my desk after extensive research and listening to mini systems. This fits my needs perfectly. I paired it with a Yamaha YST-FSW100 subwoofer to kick up the bass a bit. Nice clear, clean, crisp sound. I’m an older rock’n'roller that just wants good sound from my older cd’s (Savoy Brown, Ten Years After, etc.). This system has nice bass, treble and loudness adjustments that can easily be made by hand and not just the remote. Very easy to use. This Denon F101S system has satisified all the requirements I wanted in a system for use on my desk while playing on my laptop. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine!

I expected more…. – L. Navas –
I bought this system for my bedroom. I wanted something with good sound and small.

The good part: nicely built, lots of connectors, good looks.

The bad: sound quality is good but not fantastic (far from it!). For 0 you could assemble a much better sounding system. Of course it would be bulkier and not so sleek. But still, bearing the Denon brand I expected more than what I got.
Some reviewers are suggesting that you attach a subwoofer and I might try that.
