Advantages: Price, Sound for money, Size

Disadvantages: Tone controls

I was looking for a wee but good and powerful sounding system for less than £200 (or even a wee bit more) and eventually settled for this. As with all stereos, a lot depends on what you compare it to when listening to other machines - horses for courses.

It's main plus points for me were:

1 - Good power output for it's size and price
2 - Simple and straightforward controls
3 - Reasonably good sound
4 - Price (I got it for £170)

Against:
1 - All or nothing sound with one single button("dynamic sound generator") giving you the option of off - tinnytastic - or on - equivalent of all old fashioned graphic equalisers up to 10. At least there is a bass and treble control.

2 - Single CD and Tape but not a big problem.

As with most of these things, I find that you get used to, and happy with, whatever you settle on. Unless of course Mr Jones next door flaunts his state of the art hifi in your face.
