Amazing Sony Offer on A800 series

[tonyjaa]

Whiles shopping in Bluewater today I stumbled on an amazing offer that I could believe it was true and had to ask the sales staff twice if it was a misprint.

Whiles browsing around the shop I saw an advertisement on the shop window. The offer was get a free portable speaker cradle worth £179.99 upon purchasing any NW-A800 series starting from £99 for the 2GB.

What's more I thought it was the speaker in the picture as advertised "Sony CPF-NW001" but it turns out that its the one with the Network WiFi features) Yeah !!!

So anyone in the UK looking to purchasing a NW-A800 player you know where to go (Sony Centres)

Got home and tried out those speakers and seriously I was blown away by its sound quality. The speakers are identical to the CPF-NW001 series.

Great offer - Argos was also giving away that exact speaker system with the 808 a few weeks ago. I already had an 808 but I still managed to pick up the wi-fi version of the CPF-NW001 for just £99 which is pretty good! I had the CPF-NW001, then I sold it and got the wi-fi one which was cheaper because of the discount. And yes, the sound is unbelievable isn't it, considering it's so small!! It's quite bassy so I tend to reduce the bass on the remote control unit and use the EQ on the 808 instead. Well done, you got yourself a real bargain!

I didn't know Argos was giving away the same speaker system, maybe my local Argos didn't advertise the promotion that well. Maybe the offer was snapped up fast whiles stock last.

The sound is unbelievable as you mentioned and for me setting up the unit so it can stream music and web radio went without a hitch.

I didn't know about the 'freebie' giveaway until I was on the Amazon UK site and saw some really really bad reviews for the wi-fi speaker system. I was very surprised as it was exactly the same as the previous one, but with wi-fi. Then I read the reviews and saw that some people had got it bundled 'free' with the Sony player, but it was the wi-fi part everyone was complaining about, not the sound!

I have to confess that I loaded the software and then when I saw the zillion instructions for setting the wi-fi part up, I gave up in dispair and just use it as a speaker system. I didn't buy it for the wi-fi facilities anyway, it was because it was such a bargain and cheaper than the model without wi-fi. I don't think I've ever seen such a 'giveaway' before. It's worth almost £200!

That's quite an offer. I'd jump on it in a second if I was in the UK!

That's an amazing offer.

It certainly makes the one at SonyCentral Sydney look feeble.

They're offering the NWDB100's promo pack with an NW-A800 player.

The promo pack consists of:

* small draw-string pouch for your player

* rubber thing to wrap your eyephone cable

* micro-fibre cloth to clean the screen

* walkman logo dangle-charm.
