Pros: Good sound quality.
Cons: It rarely worked.
The Bottom Line: This thing died on me only months after I bought it and it would have cost more than it was worth to fix it.

| 12judge's Full Review: Kenwood XD-A51 Audio Mini System |
The sound quality was good, the features were nice, but that doesn't mean anything if the system never works. That is why I got rid of mine and bought a Sony to replace it.
It was almost like clockwork. It all started about 6 months after I bought the system. It did not matter whether I was playing a CD, a tape, or simply listening to the radio. After about 15-20 minutes of music, the speakers would start to crackle loudly and then the whole system would shut down.
Of course, I thought I had blown the speakers. I returned the speakers for new ones, but this happened again, and again, and again. Every time I listened to music, the same thing would happen.
Finally, I took the whole system to a repair shop. The main circuit board was defective and needed to be replaced. The new part cost more than the system was worth.
After spending all that time dealing with this disappointing system, I finally took it back and got a different one.
