MAJORITY Homerton Internet Radio, CD Player & DAB+, Bluetooth 5.3, FM Radio

I’ve been looking for a compact CD player that’ll fit with my decor so I can play my old CD’s that just aren’t on streaming services. I came across the Majority Homerton 2 and given its array of functionality, looks, and price, I thought I’d give it a spin. It arrived well packed and when I took it out of the box I was surprised by its weight and how sturdy it felt. Once fired up it launched into the set up wizard which is pretty simple to do and took less than 5 minutes. With some 80’s tunes on the CD player I thought I’d better read the instructions. The instructions are online and accessed with the QR code on the box which is a great sustainable touch. They are detailed and easy to follow, but to be honest the Homerton 2 is really intuitive so most people probably won’t need them. All of the functions can be accessed on the remote (which has a lovely ‘click’ to it) or on the front of the unit, but it also has an app, which is probably how I’ll use it. The app is really good, and again the set up was so easy - I think the only thing you can’t do on the app is eject a CD! The Homerton 2 sounds great for its size and although I’ll be integrating it into my current audio eco-system via the jack on the back, it’s good to know it can belt out a tune. And the connectivity available is better than some systems that are far far more expensive - you’ve USB, jacks in and out, Bluetooth (which has great range) and Spotify connect. And on top of that you get podcast player and the internet radio, neither of which I knew I needed but now absolutely love. Both are simple to use, even more so on the app and there is so much to explore. So all in all I’d thoroughly recommend the Homerton 2 to anyone looking for a dab / internet radio / CD player that’s affordable, flexible and has some oomph.

This has exceeded my expectations and well worth it. Sound quality is superb. I use it mainly as radio and cd player. Found internet and Radio stations very easy to set up and for someone like me who is in no way tech savvy it meant I didn’t have to ask for help with set up. . Good quality product. Very user friendly and instruction manual easy to follow. I noticed in the paperwork there was a note saying that there is around the clock product experts and friendly uk based support. If you should ever need it.

I needed to replace a very old and broken 5 cd/radio/tape player - really only to listen to radio and play CDs and chose this player after reading the reviews. I am glad I did. I got very confused and stressed setting up the internet side of things, but that is just me - actually it should be really easy if you understand what you are doing! I did have a printed booklet with basic instructions and looked online for set up, but there were one or two less clear instructions! However, once sorted I found that this little player is an absolute gem. I needed a small system without bulky speakers that would fit on a small cupboard - this fits the bill. I was pleased I had chosen the oak box. The top speaker is a slight issue but actually the sound is pretty amazing for such a small item. I managed (with difficulty and a few choice words) to get some FM and DAB stations preset - No idea how I did it but I must have pressed the right things at the right time somehow! I tried a CD - fine. I tried the FM, DAB, and Internet Radio - all fine, with surprisingly good reception because the player is in a corner of the room - it worked without the aerial extended. The revelation to me was when a relative sorted me out with Spotify (not had before) which worked using my tablet (no smart phone). I was thrilled with the sound quality and ease of using this - the little screen showing the artist and track. Unfortunately this is not the case when a CD is playing - just showing the track number. I do not have the player plugged in most of the time, but when put it back on it had retained all my settings, which was great. This is a five star machine, but I had to knock off a star because of the really stupid placement of the headphone and USB sockets. They are at the back (I knew they were but a socket at the back is better than none). I mostly need to use headphones but I don't want them plugged in all the time. Having to move the unit and mess around finding the socket at the back is an absolute pain but I am willing to live with that because overall the unit is perfect for me. I do not know how robust or reliable the player is because I have only had it a couple of days, but I hope it will give me long and happy listening. If you want a small, multi function player with great sound, then the Homerton2 is the one to go for.

mrkevinhiggs 22 May 2022, 18:25 BST I ordered the Homerton 2 as an upgrade to standard DAB radio. I was looking for something to fit in with my office, not take up too much room but able to listen to DAB, Spotify or other music from my Bluetooth devices, and CDs if I fancied. The Homerton 2 does all of this along with being able to listen to hundreds of other internet radio stations. With a built in speaker too I didn't even need to wire in my Majority D40 speakers unless I really wanted to. The sound from the Homerton 2 is loud enough to fill my office as much as i need it to, and with built in equaliser it is so easy to adjust the sound depending on what I'm listening to. I probably will plug the D40 speakers in as their sound profile is fab, and as the Homerton 2 has a headphone jack this is a simple addition to an already brilliant product. For the price I am blown away, it also looks and feels really well made. The other really good thing is that Majority are looking to become more climate friendly so the packaging is pretty much all recyclable and the weight of the product is kept for shipping by not including things you don't need. There is no instruction manual in the box which might upset some people but the Homerton 2 is so easy to set up I didn't even need to review the online instructions in order to get the device connected and music playing. I haven't tried the CD player yet but there are the usual controls for pause, play, back, forward on the included remote, so I'm sure this will also work a dream. I honestly don't know how Majority do it for such a low price, and such a brilliant product. Well done! 👍

I spent literally months looking for a way to play music while working at home, i needed DAB, I have a lot of CDs and I also use Spotify. Firstly – no printed manual, and they plant a tree instead so that appeals to me as most paper manuals end up in a drawer anyway. This unit couldn’t be easier to set up, quite intuitive and clear to follow. Getting the digital manual from the site is easy, just scan the QR code on the box and away you go. I wanted a stereo that would play Spotify and not get interrupted by phone calls or anything, I used to use a Bluetooth speaker, but I got tired of notifications and calls coming out of the speaker all the time and interrupting the music. Homerton 2 nails this with the inclusion of Spotify connect. This allows the streaming to be handled by the device rather than phone, and my phone becomes the controller. I love how the display shows the music artwork while using Spotify, nice touch guys! The DAB is clear and easy to tune and save presents for all your DAB favs, excellent reception in my area. The CD player works well, sounds great and doesn’t make any extra noise to detract from the music playing, nobody wants to hear any whirling! It also boasts, audio IN, FM radio, Podcasts, USB, Bluetooth Audio, and searches for internet radio stations! It's the right size for my desk and is a nifty little unit, with great sound for its size. The included remote is very useful if you need to put the unit out of reach and includes everything you would need to do on your Homerton 2. And it tells me the time! All in all, it’s the full package in a compact unit that works well, sounds great and has all the functionality I could want and more.

Delivery was prompt well packaged.Absolutely love the radio 📻itself tone is best I think I've had in a radio,lots of stuff I don't understand,like internet radio couldn't do that as I think you've got to have a computer and be on line and I don't have a computer but what I wanted was DAB radio and I've got on the station I wanted really couldn't be happier so very happy with purchase recommend it it's British made a good price compact good looking equipment. CDs play lovely too.

I have no hesitation in saying that buying the Homerton 2 Music System has been a life changing experience for me! I was raised in a house where a radio always played, but over recent years, I must confess to rarely listening to a radio. That has now changed. I was amazed at the number and variety of radio stations the DAB+ feature identified. I have now got some of my favourites on preset. Having used Spotify on my iPad and mobile, I am loving being able to take advantage of the choice of music that I can now listen to via the Homerton Spotify mode and, last but not least, I am enjoying playing CDs that have simply sat on a shelf for the past two years. The sound quality is amazing and it is so stylish in appearance. Without doubt, the Homerton 2 Music System is worth every penny I paid!

I was moved to buy a new radio because Classic FM moved to DAB+. I looked at various options online and was attracted to this one because it also plays CDs (of which I still have a sizeable collection) as well as internet radio (which I thought it would be interesting to explore) and can play mp3 files from a USB stick and content streamed via Bluetooth, all at a reasonable price. The sound quality is obviously not that of a high end hifi system but is nevertheless very good, and can easily fill my living area. It took a bit of experimentation and re-reading of the instruction manual to work out how to use all the functions, but once I got going everything proved easy enough to operate. The supplied remote control is easy to use (as a previous reviewer noted one does need line of sight to the radio, but one does not need to be especially close) and you also have the option to download apps to your phone which can then also be used to operate the radio. As another reviewer noted, switching inputs can cause a noticeable difference in volume, but then the same is true of my TV, and in both cases it is hardly much of an effort to adjust the volume to compensate. The unit is also conveniently compact.

Radio Internet / CD de très bonne qualité, facile à configurer Radio Internet, lecteur CD, Bluetooth, prise USB (dommage qu'elle ne soit pas en façade), FM, DAB (pas encore accessible dans ma région) ... Très bien Satisfait de mon achat
