Poor quality sound - By: N. J. Le Poidevin, 27 Oct 2008 
I purchased the CD pack last month. The sound quality of CD1 was poor with alot of crackling throughout the whole CD. I have purchased 100s of CDs & DVDs from Amazon & this is the first time that I have felt the need to return an item. Amazon were excellent with a replacement arriving within 36 hours. Unfortunately the sound recording on the replacement was no better so clearly the product itself is faulty rather than the individual CD included within my pack. CD2, CD3 & CD4 were all fine.
Suenos Spanish 1 language pack - By: , 08 Feb 2005 
Found this pack really useful. It has helped me to get started on spanish & I have found the book gives interesting information about lifein Spain/South American. Answers are allin the back so think this is a good pack if you want to start learning Spanish without a class.
A good basic understanding!!! - By: , 05 Feb 2004 
I've also got the Linguaphone All Talk Spanish, & as another reviewer said, it's ok if you like being patronised! Suenos on the other hand starts from the basics. It teaches you like you're taught at school with greetings, name exchanges, where you live, & gradually progresses through more complicated scenarios, but allin all is fairly good. Unfortunately, learning from these courses doesn't help with pronunciation problems!
Suenos World Spanish: Course Book. - By: Karen Dods, 03 Feb 2004 
An excellent course for anyone wanting to learn the basics of the Spanish language . Very easy to follow & concentrates on subjects that are useful to a visitor to Spain , rather than the usual format of language courses
Pity About The Sound Track.... - By: , 31 Mar 2003 
I would agree with the other reviews here,in that the book is well ordered, & material is presentedin an attractive manner.
However, I personally feel that the material is let down by the poor quality of the accompanying CD's & tapes. They attempt to use 'real' people; I realise that there is an argument for this, but most beginners will find that the language is being spoken too quickly to take in, & what is worse, is hard to hear due to poor sound quality & background noise (such as children playing).
I have found tapes accompanying other books far easier to follow from a beginner point of view.
