The Best Shelf System

Jan 9, 2005 - By Muru (St Charles, MO USA)

Wow!!! great shelf system, I got this for Christmas from CC and it's really worth, the quality of the sound is excellent, I did a research before buying this, i did a comparison between sony, Sony features are less and the review for it didn't great, personally I went to stores and played Panasonic and SONY side by side, the quality and BASS is way ahead from SONY , the pricewise both are same but Panasonic has 5 cd changer,timer with sleep function which is not there is Sony.
 
Pros
1.Ultimate sound and so clear even in very high sound without distortion.
2.Powerfull BASS(Be careful with neighbors,it rocks)
3.System Made in Singapore and speakers and subwoofer made in Malaysia(Not Japan, but this is not made in Ch... comparatively better quality control)
 
Cons
1.Slow CD changer,you have to load one by one,but I can live with it since I won't change often that too if you load MP3's
2.Look of the system ,either you like it or hate it.
3.There is no resume function , if you stop the system and on the system it starts from the first track which is annoying while playing mp3's.
 
But this System beat SONY in Quality of Sound ,features but not in price since both having same price tag

incredible!

Feb 28, 2005 - By this is a war

This has to be the best cd player I've ever had. The bass is so smooth and plugging game systems/DVD players into it makes for the most enriching experience. Don't believe me? Try plugging a PS2 into it and playing Metal Gear Solid 3..I guarantee you'll hear things you didn't hear through your t.v speaker..and that thing is called bass. As said in another review, the only con to me is the slow switching cd process but that's alright to me because I'm use to only putting in one cd at a time anyway since my last cd player had only one cd tray. Do I recommend this? Yes..definitely. You will not be disappointed
