The System BLEW ME AWAY!!!!

by HcRapper12 , Dec 11 '00
Pros: Great Sound from AMAZING Speakers, Holds a lot of CDs.
Cons: None
As I said in my review on a portable Sony CD Player, I ALWAYS buy Sony products because Sony has never let me down, and I don't think it ever will. Sony is always the head of new technology. That's exactly what I like

This 50+1 CD Disc Changer...

Sony is the best

by Diznik , Jan 25 '01
Pros: Great Sound, Inexpensive complete system
Cons: Lack of settings for Equalizer.
When I first moved to PA I needed an inexpensive stereo, but I wanted the best quality I could get for the buck. I went to several different stores and listened to dozens of different systems before I decided on the Sony. It is by far the best system...

Wonderful little mini system

by kandcats , Jul 21 '01
Pros: 51 CD storage; great sound
Cons: It isn't cheap
I needed a new stereo. I had an old Sony 3 CD changer that died on me. The CD part stopped working. It was 5 years old so I figured it was time to start shopping for a new model.

I decided to really think about this purchase. I didn't want...

Rockin' the dorms with a system that ROCKS!

by parradox , Sep 28 '00
Pros: Can be heard at the courtyard of my Quad CLEARLY from four floors up.
Cons: The CD labeling system is a fixed system, meaning that unless it is digitized on the cd, you must keep the cd where it is except for the Plus One. Also no manual EQ.
About two weeks before college began, I decided that I wanted a truly bumpin' stereo system. I went shopping with several things in mind. First I knew that I wanted something that can hold a serious amount of CD's. Second, I wanted it to sound good....

Pros: powerful sound, many presets, decent price, great bass,

Sony's Shelf Sized Powerhouse

by jfkreviews , Mar 15 '01
Pros: awesome power, superior sound, big CD capacity
Cons: no real EQ, disk naming system needs revising
Everyone asks the same question when leaving home for the first time, “What am I going to do for tunes, man?” The Sony MHC-MC3AV is the answer. That is, as long as you can afford it. I couldn’t. I purchased the HCD-MC1 instead. To clarify, the...

Ahead of its time

by vchamp20 , Jan 18 '00
Pros: great sound, easy to use
Cons: none
Searching for a mini-system I took everything into consideration. I was looking for a great sounding system that was easy to operate yet affordable. This mini-system put out by Sony was the best I came upon. Load this 51 cd tray up and you can be...

The Best Sony Ever, Buy NOW

by ratnarat , Oct 20 '00
Pros: Loud, Precise, Does it all, attractive, high quality
Cons: none except--pricy, wish it had a manual equalizer. but those aren't important
I love this stereo like it is my own child. It is a wonderful piece of hardware in every way.
First of all, this stereo does everything. It has 5 speakers, so is perfect for hooking up to a
DVD player for kickin' sound. It can change *51...

Sony's complete system provides it all

by mrsleazye , Jun 15 '01
Pros: Great sound and volume, large capacity, powerful speakers
Cons: -
This is a great system sony has made. For being as compact as this unit is, it puts out a powerful yet clear sound. The five speaker setup is good at creating a surround sound effect. The beauty of this unit is that if your space is limited, in a...

A great deal for a great stereo

by jackweesha70 , May 16 '00
Pros: Everything is great
Cons: None
I had been researching different stereos to purchase for quite some time before I found this, the perfect choice. It was hard to decide whether I wanted a component system, a compact, a full. What sound did I want, what features? Small or large? I...

This Sony is the One and Only

by bendor , Jan 15 '00
Pros: size, sound clarity, versatility
Cons: none
Everyone today has, or at least should have more CD's than cassette tapes and, God forbid, record albums. I'm sure the number of home CD players are growing just as fast as the VCR craze of 15 years ago. It only makes sense in today's fast-paced world to...

Quirks

by shargantribe , Oct 21 '02
Pros: Overall the sound is great.
Cons: hooking up a turntable to listen to old classics won't fly, even with a preamp
For descent reception I had to get an amplified antenna. Unit is too bulky to move around. Too much weight for its size and features. The remote is crowded and buttons too small to navigate without pressing something else. Admittedly, bought hastily....

by bomar , Jan 22 '00
Pros: Great sound, excellent features
Cons: quite expensive
I recently bought this stereo, and I love it. I think it has all the features that I could ever need, and the sound is absolutely great. I love having the five speakers, because it provides for excellent surround sound, but only if you are using it...

Great for Parties and Homeowners

by crashedpc , Jan 17 '00
Pros: Great Sound, plenty of CD storage
Cons: Bad reception sometimes, confusing buttons.
The Sony MHC-MC3AV has got to be the most interesting mini-system that I've seen. It's not everyday that 50+1 CD systems use an upright CD storage mechanism. The functions are a bit intimidating, because the buttons are a bit too many and oddly labeled....
