The first thing that caught my eye about this minisystem was the retro styling and miniscule size(Not to mention the fact that it was being displayed in one of the more exclusive audio stores in town). I had reservations about the brand name, but gave it a listen anyways. I was truly impressed with the rich, fullbodied sound it produced and the unit's ability to fill a room(all of which only got better after it had been broken in for 24 hours). JVC has been able to create a great looking and sounding minisystem which is excellent for the bedroom or living area in a small apartment. I currenty have mine hooked up to my television and I love it.
