Advantages: GOOD SOUND QUALITY, LP MINIDISC RECORDING Disadvantages: NO OPTICAL OUT CONNECTION
...WELL, AFTER MONTHS OF SEARCHING FOR AN IDEAL HI-FI FOR MYSELF, I FINALLY FOUND THIS ONE. SONY HAS A GREAT REPUTATION, SO I DIDN'T HESITATE TO PURCHASE THIS MICRO MINIDISC SYSTEM WHEN I FOUND IT ONLINE AT A PRICE £60 CHEAPER THAN ON THE HIGH-STREET. THE SYSTEM ITSELF HAS A SINGLE CD, MINIDISC WITH LP AND HIGH SPEED RECORDING, A TAPE DECK AND A RDS TUNER. THE OUTPUT OF EACH SPEAKER IS 35 WATTS AND THE SOUND QUALITY IS EXCELLENT, EVEN AT HIGH VOLUMES. THE DYNAMIC SOUND GENERATOR(DSG) GIVES EVEN MORE CLARITY AND QUALITY. THE SYSTEM HAS PC LINK CAPABILITIES, WHICH ENABLES YOU TO RECORD YOUR MP3 FILES ON TO MINIDISC, BUT THIS REQUIRES THE OPTIONAL PC TO HI-FI CONNECTOR. THIS IS A GOOD ENTRY LEVEL HI-FI, THAT IS EASY TO USE AND GIVES GOOD QUALITY ALL ROUND. ITS IDEAL FOR ME, A STUDENT AS IT IS SMALL IN SIZE AND QUITE AFFORDABLE! A GOOD ALL...

---Conclusion---
This system has managed to provide me with all my musical needs. The main attraction is its brand type, price, look and with a couple of extra features it rounds off a very reasonable machine.
What makes it stand above other microHi-Fisystems? Well it does that bit more than other similar priced machines and with Panasonice you are guaranteed a solid well built device which will do exactly what it says it will.

...Yamaha RXV-396RDS Dolby Digital Receiver (£200)
The Yamaha RXV-396RDS is the cheapest Digital receiver produced by Yamaha, but it still manages to impress, the front to back surround sweeps are as powerful and realistic a s an amplifiers or twice its price, the bass response is amazing, equipped with an external decoder input, inputs for CD,AUX,DVD\LD,VCR, Tape\MD Monitor, Sattelite\DTV, a built in RDS tuner with EON and PTY, and video inputs for DVD, LD,VCR, Sattelite, DTV, monitor out for TV, its not short of Plugs!!
It has a range of 12 DSP's and many digital settings, so you can get the perfect sound for whatever you are listening to. Bass, Treble, Balance and Volume controls are located on the front, and the whole thing itself is very attractive and fits into any hi-fisystem....

This is the great debut album from the Boston boys. This is great rock n roll music and great set-up. Although there are definitely some weak songs, there are also some very strong ones. I don't think that this album is quite what American Hi-Fi describe more

With so many brands and so many micro Hi-Fi's for each brand I decided to take a bit of gamble and choose one on the almost absolute recommendation of the sales advisor in Comet. Panasonic, one of my most trusted brands was to provide... more
If your type of music has a lot of bass to it and you're on a tight budget, then the Sennheiser HD437 headphones are definitely for you. Coming at you for £19.99 R.R.P they deliver plenty of bass, good for Electronica, but also perform well with Rock and more
The creme of the crop as they say.
The QX6850 Extreme Edition is by no means a bad CPU, neither it is slow or hot temperature wise. The only thing bad about it is its price!
Back in the older days, Intel used to differentiate the Extreme editions... more
