Summary: Reasonable price and good sound
Comment: This product is reasonably cheap, and the sound is decent for the price. I bought a pair of cheap speaker stands ($34) from Amazon, and it has improved the sound a lot. I would suggest anyone who buys this system does the same. I also got the bluetooth adapter so I can play music from my computer's itunes, and it works perfectly, although you should avoid the drivers on the CD that comes with the product as they messed up my Microsoft Office and I had to reinstall it. I suspect Vista is causing the problems, but plug and play worked fine with this device for me. Overall, a great buy!

Summary: Nice shelf stereo w/ bluetooth capability
Comment: Consistent with Sony's usual high quality, this is a solid shelf stereo system. All functions work properly and very straight forward and logical in their operation. I'm a bluetooth junkie so I really like the bluetooth capability, and it was really the chief reason for purchasing this particular unit. Paired up quickly to my smartphone and laptop with no problems. Lastly, unit looks good versus some other shelf stereos that look cheap.

Summary: great little stereo, bluetooth...not yet
Comment: I wanted to play music from my laptop onto this stereo so I bought the Iogear GBU221 adapter that was showing up in the "Customers Who Bought..."section. I got the bluetooth to play, but it cut off after about 30 seconds. I called Iogear 4 times trying to get this adapter to work by uninstalling the cd loaded driver and reloading the online one several times without success. I decided to review the comments on this product and one person said this Sony system requires Bluetooth 2.0. So I guess this adapter won't work and I wish Amazon had included this info on their technical details. Now the Iogear 2.0 adapter is showing up in the "Customers..." box. I ordered a 2.0 adapter and hopefully it will work.
Update...Ordered this cheap adapter, 100M Wireless USB 2.4GHz Bluetooth 2.0 Dongle Adapter for PC Laptop Notebook, and got it to work! It is Vista compatible and 2.0.

Summary: Great
Comment: I had a bluetooth probelm with my Macbook Tiger connecting to CMTBX5BT. But after I upgrade to Leopard, Apple somehow just fix the bluetooth problem. Its a excellent product. Nice Sound and very fancy look.

Summary: Great system with a fair price tag
Comment: It's been about a month since I got a CMT-BX5BT and there are several things I would like to point out.
-It's very important to have a remote with today's music systems. When I received the box, I wanted to make sure there is a remote included but couldn't find any description on the box mentioning about it. I read in someone else's review here that it is included so I decided to open it anyway, and there WAS in fact a remote included in the box, ta-da!
-Another very important quality is sound, and this system does have a good sound quality. It is pretty loud too, compared to other similar products.
-Bluetooth was a neat feature, but I personally didn't find it too useful. If you are like me, CMT-BX1 is another option which is almost the same minus the bluetooth function. I compared it with this product at a store one day. Its speakers were slightly smaller, and the main unit's surface material had a different feel than this.
-Being able to play mp3 files on a CD is a great feature. However we are not able to browse through the folders while we are still listening to a song though. Maybe that's understandable for a music CD system like this.
-One complaint though is the button layout is a little confusing, and buttons are tiny. Then again, this product is equipped with many functions after all, so that was probably necessary in a way.
We could nitpick about other little things if we wanted to, but at the end of the day, this really is a great system, especially for the price we're paying. I would've given it 4.5 stars if I could but since it's not possible...okay, 5 stars!!!!!
