I researched a lot to replace my old system and selected this one based on my requirement for MP3 and radio. I discovered that Hi-Fi shelf systems are not popular any more and # of models is very limited if you do not want to spend over $100.
I have it for a couple days and generally like it:
- it is a new one (Jan 2011);
- relatively cheap ($88, Walmart online);
- equalizer has about 6 options (3 on earlier model);
- sound is not bad for small size unit from CD and FM (loud enough for 300 sq feet room with 25 people).
- I think it has no more than 30 W per channel (not 50 W as advertised). There is a cooling fan inside, it kicks on when you use on high output power over 15 units on volume;
- headphone jack;
- long range remote control (up to 20 feet as tested).
What I do not like:
- a bit akward and looks cheap design;
- no input from other sources (line in or USB);
- very weak AM radio reception (needed to open its case to retune to improve to acceptable level);
- display is too small;
- it does not remember last song on CD if you switch to other modes like FM and return back to CD, you have to start from beginning.
With over 200 songs on MP3 CD it is very inconvient.
