Panasonic SC‑PM302: compact 60 W mini Hi-Fi system with Bluetooth 6.0, CD audio player, USB and DAB

An alternative that is more accessible and less bulky than the SC-PMX112, the new Panasonic SC-PM302 (without [abc]Wi-Fi[/abc] connectivity) is aimed at users looking for a simple audio solution for everyday use. Its reduced size allows it to fit easily into different rooms of the home, whether in a bedroom, kitchen, living room, or office.
