Sharp XL-3000 CD Shelf System

Pros: CD-R, MP3 compatible, small and powerful. nice and compact remote.
Cons: a weird sound when turning the power off.

This is absolutely a must have micro system at home or home office.
20W output per speaker, shiny body and, the best of all, it plays CD-R or MP3 format. If you go to Sharp website, there is nothing mentioned about it is CD-R compatible.
I've just got the system and tested with my own CD(CD-R and MP3), it works perfectly.

It definitely worths the dollars I spent.
