Philips MC-70 CD Shelf System

Pros: Stylish, POWERFUL, durable
Cons: Mid frequencies (vocals) could be better

I have this baby for two years now. I bought it because I worked at Philips years ago and still have friends there that can shop with discount. I actually wanted a Sony microsystem (CMT-CP11) because the sound is superb, but for a lot less I ended up ...

Pros: Unbelievable sound, feature packed, attractive design, compact
Cons: Some features only accessible by remote control.

Hello everyone. Once again I'm back to express my opinion with another review. This time I'm venturing into the realm of audio/stereo compact shelf systems. This is new territory for me so I hope I get all the new-fangled technology terms right. Here...

Pros: The sound quality, the elegant look, the blue glow....EVERYTHING!!!!! (well; almost......)
Cons: Noisy CD changing mechanism, no memory setting for the CD player

After doing weeks of research and listening to various models, I bought it on a whim through EBAY for $125 shipped and received it a mere 2 days afterwards. It was easy to set up and takes up little space in the bedroom. I've only two minor complaints ...

Pros: Didn't cost that much
Cons: Wasn't worth what was paid. CD mechanism broke within 3 months.

Flimsily made garbage. What else can I say, how good is a three disk changer that doesn't work? Buy at your own risk.

Pros: good FM tuner. best sounding mini system in store - of 20 units ).
Cons: clunky changer. flakey changer. changer broke.

Ours lasted almost 3 years before the CD self-destructed. This happens commonly on these units. The CD player isn't durable. We might have played 500 CD's total. At US$300, that's $0.60 per CD, not a good deal.
