Product Description
The TSX-130 is a compact, convenient and attractive way to add musical enjoyment to your bedroom. Versatile enough to play a wide variety of music sources, it's sure to keep you entertained. Set it to wake you to your favorite music in the morning, then use it as a handy place to deposit things you need, like eyeglasses or keys. And with its real wood top panel, it will add an attractive touch to any interior. iPod Dock on the Top Panel Dock your iPod into the top of the unit and listen to your music through the high quality speakers. You can operate the iPod from the remote unit, and the iPod is charged when in use/standby. USB Port on Top Panel If you have a USB portable player or a USB device with songs stored on it, you can connect it to the USB port on the top panel. The TSX-130 will play both MP3 and WMA tracks. CD Player and FM Radio You can listen to regular CDs and also recordable CDs with MP3 or WMA tracks. The FM radio lets you preset 30 stations for quick and easy tuning. Good Sound Quality with Strong Bass The 15W x 2 amplifier is powerful enough to produce strong sound energy from the independent left and right 8cm (3-1/2') speakers. The design includes two bass reflex ports on the back that enhance bass sound dispersion. Convenient Flat Top With its flat, real wood top, the TSX-130 doesn't just take up space. It's convenient for setting your eyeglasses on when you go to bed, or your mobile phone, so you can pick it up together with your iPod when you go out. You'll always know where they are - right on your indispensable music system! Clock with Dual Alarm Function The front panel clock has a dual alarm with wake up, sleep and snooze functions. You can set the alarm for music (even a specific song) or a beep sound. There is also a new alarm mode that provides a gentle, stress-free wakeup with music that fades in and then a beep to ensure that you're awake.

5 out of 5 stars High Performance system for an Ipod/CD/FM   July 2, 2010
Ram
I recently purchased this Yamaha system and I love it so much. The build quality is solid and the sound is very impressive. iPod playback was wonderful and the FM had a very clean reception.

Overall, I am impressed and I am satisfied with the system and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality sound system.

Another great product from Yamaha.


5 out of 5 stars Sound Bliss   March 15, 2010

First off, this is not my primary listening portal - nothing comes close to the auditory bliss of separates. That said it is definitely used on a regular basis. The TSX-130 is a fine little piece of audio and fully commands the price for the sound it delivers. Since Yamaha is known for making trustworthy digital portals and even better receivers, it's no surprise that even at a measly 30 watts amplification, the sound here is bright and clean enveloping the room (large, wooden floored living area) and creating a respectable soundstage even casual listeners have come to expect. And like many skeptics who fear quality of bass oozing out of a small system, simply channel Brian Bromberg's double bass masterpiece Wood. Within seconds of the opening plucks, I was completely blown away as one hears the low range of the TSX-130 being put to test. The resonating strings are crystal clear as they reverb along the wooden neck. No rumbling, just straight clean bass. To take it even further by discounting the modern state-of-the-art studio recording of Wood, I put the TSX-130 through a `tougher' test by slipping in James Moody's mid 50s Verve recordings Moody's Mood for Blues- once again Eldee Young's acoustic bass was crisp and had a full bodied tone. In fact, album after album I found that all the frequencies are well defined be it the mid-range of Dylan's pipes Together Through Life or Macca's alter ego as The Fireman on Electric Argumentsto the higher ends typical of the late 70s proto-disco/soul heard on Philadelphia Classics....and as a good sound system should be, deserve no tone adjustments (as absent here). The only downside to this system is the absence of a rear input jack to for a video connection. Overall an excellent product that goes beyond casual listening.


4 out of 5 stars It was a long search...   December 25, 2009

I've been all over the internet and my local electronics stores to find the features I wanted. Had to return 2 purchases because they worked adequately as players but not as alarm clocks. I wanted to sleep to audiobooks or podcasts and wake to music, and I needed both iPod and CD capabilities, which is surprisingly hard to find. Finally found this product, which works great as a CD player, iPod player and alarm clock. It's nice to hear actual bass coming from your clock radio. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is the price. Too high. There's a USB port as well, which I plan on experimenting with to see if I can play my computer through it when I'm watching Hulu in bed on my laptop. :-)

Wanted to have a clock radio that would also work as an iPod dock, could not believe how poor the sound quality was on the iHome and a few Sony products so decided to move up in price a little. Very happy that I did. The sound quality is infinitely better and the look is much nicer. I am actually more impressed with little things that I didn't know that it did when I purchased it, like the gradual increase in volume when the alarm goes off so that it is not jarring and the gradual dimming of the display when the room lights go down making it less bright for sleeping. A very nice product, only 4 stars because it is a little expensive for what it is.


2 out of 5 stars Kinda Disappointed.....   September 14, 2009

I decided to abandon separate components in my new (small) apartment. Having made the leap into the Ipod world, I figured a good-quality docking system would be fine. I've trusted the Yamaha brand many times, and liked the look of this piece.

That being said, this system doesn't really cut the mustard. Yeah, it's real convenient - Ipod, CD, USB, receiver (I couldn't care less about the alarm clock), but the sound is disappointing. The DSP settings - what the #*$&% ever happened to tone controls? - simply do not give enough treble. It's either massive bass with no high end, or tinny high end with no definition.

I wasn't expecting audiophile quality, but for $400, I think Yamaha blew it with this piece. The $30 speakers I hooked up to my MacBook sound significantly better, frankly.....
