I've been saving up for a few years and finally built up enough money to go all out on my stereo system this time. Let's face it, this stereo system is a solid buy. I've spent months comparing this to all the el-cheapo brands, such as Harmon Kardon, Onkyo, McIntosh, AudioControl, Klipsh... And I am simply amazed. This baby whips em all! The $40 price tag was a bit much, but this has all of the features! A two band EQ, one cd changer, built-in telescoping antenna, single tape deck with combination record/play tape head, even has detachable speakers! The speakers came with a really neat feature which blew my mind, they have little mounts on the back that let you hang them off the wall from a nail! If you are looking at buying a Harmon Kardon, and are willing to spend a little more to get a better system, go for this one. You will NOT be disappointed!!
