(More customer reviews)Recieved my unit on 8/11/2010 from Amazon and I am very impressed with the quality of this product. It is easy to set up and program ie station presets, time etc. I know that this unit is billed as a shelf system, however I set it up in my living room and the sound is excellent. I have put in my favorite rock, reggae, swing and classical CD's and the music reproduction is full and distinct.
I looked at the DM 37 at a local store and while the two seem to be identical in performance the optional IPOD docking station for the 37 was a turn off. My son hooked up his IPOD direct into this unit and it was fully controllable from the remote. This was a prime factor in my purchase. The features that I really like are the separate FM/AM antennas, the analog inputs and the intuitive lay out of the remote. The only fly in the ointment, if you are visually challenged, is the size of the display, but given the size and percieved function as a shelf system, this didn't influence my rating.
While somewhat pricey, if you like music and don't want to spend some really big money this system deserves serious consideration.
