    just looking for some info on this item

    Does it have built in speakers and can it be plugged into the wall? Very silly basic questions I know.

    Or do I need my own speakers/amplifier for this?

    Any info would be greatly appreciated, cheers

    Jay,

    Thanks for the post & apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

    The SJM3152 iPOD dock does need an external amp or TV to connect into to make it work - however it's a pretty smart unit as it has Audio outs (of course) but it has a clever 2 way RF remote that shows you the Ipod menu and allows you to control your Ipod even if you are in another room - the only thing it does not have is Video out (The instructions say it does but try as we may we just cannot seem to get it to work..:confused:) The remote is also a 6-in-1 remote so you can use it to control your TV/STB/Hi-fi etc.

    We bought a chunk of these on a deal and we can do them at a Boardie special of just £29.95 / €33.99.

    Keep me posted if they are of any interest and we will get you sorted??

    ATB,

    Thanks very much for the info John.

    Would you be able to tell me where I would be able to get an amplifier to compliment this? Also how much would it cost me?

    Cheers again

    Jay,

    no problem, our pleasure - you can use it with any Amplifier or Receiver - you will need speakers as well - something like the Teac AG790 at £149.95 coupled with the Eltax Concept Mini at just £19.95 and you are away!

    Alternatively youcould just go for a decent system complete with an Ipod dock - we have a Boardie deal up and coming on the excellent Teac CRH227i which includes an IPOD dock at just £94.95 / €99.99 which will make a great buy - even if you just partner it with the Eltax as above (however it will take much better speakers!)

    Keep me posted if we can assist in any way,

    ATB,

    No problem ( I do normally have an answer for everything! :P )

    We have the excellent DC1010 at €54.99 (including Boardie Philips shop discount) this is a CD/ Radio / Ipod dock but does not have a remote.

    We also have the AJ300 which does have remote and looks pretty smooth in high gloss black - this is €79.99 less your Boardie Philips Shop discount it comes out at €71.99

    Finally (again no remote) we have the DC190 which is in a slick mirror finish and retails at €69.99 - less your Boardie Philips Shop discount it comes out at €62.99

    These are all available from stock - so just drop us a line if we can help you with any of them,

    I must admit, the2 way remote is a very attractive feature on this item id be very interested in this. Would this item work with 2 speakers I already have?

    If not, then what would be the cheapest option for me taking into account my budget and also that I would spend €34 on this. So what would another €30-40 get me on top of this item to make it the full set if you will

    John,

    How's it goin'?

    Will this dock work with a Nano 16GB on a home cinema system 5.1? The system does have audio and video in and a S-video port.

    Does your Belfast branch have any of these ìn stock? If so how much are they?

    Thanks a million!!

    Hi Guilpin

    No worries re you 16gb Nano - it will work fine.
    Yoou'd just need to connect your iPod to the Audio inputs on the back of your amp.

    Cheers

    Hey Alanokelly

    You would appear to be in luck, I've just checked Richer Sounds stock on this item and they are showing a couple remaining at £49.95 in Belfast.

    Best phone them asap on 0044 333 900 0070 and get your name down on one:)

    Cheers

    Hi Alan

    Sorry to hear that...

    I checked with Philip this morning and these have been discontinued and there is no replacement model available.

    You best bet is to have a chat with Richer as they may have an alternative solution available.

    We have one last DLA99901 remaining in the shop
    http://download.p4c.philips.com/files/d/dla99901_10/dla99901_10_pss_eng.pdf

    This can be yours for €66.99

    HAve a look at the spec and see what you think - its a little more versatile than the SJM3152

    Hi Ash,

    It looks good, but the display on the other one is what really sold it for me.
    I intend on keeping the ipod permanently docked to my hifi in the kitchen and could use the display as there is quite a distance involved.

    Anything else around with a display?

    Thanks,
    Alan

    Hi Alanokelly.

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

    I (Kenny) have been off for a while as my apendix had burst and needed removed very quickly :(

    As Ash has mentioned the SJM3152 has now finished and been discontinued.

    At the moment I can not find another Dock which has a screen built into the remote that we can source.

    Have you seen anything else that may have caught your eye?
