Panasonic SC-PTX 5

Advantages: Good quality
Disadvantages: Overpriced

...Buying a Panasonic means you not only buy a decent electrical item but you pay extra money for a name. The SC-AK25 is a decent piece of equipment; it contains a 5-disc CD changer, with a digital radio tuner and two feather touch tape cassette player/recorders. It retailed at £249.99 and was purchased from a mail order company. It’s quite an attractive piece of kit but does not really compare to other models made by Sony. Overall for the money and the fact that it is very durable is a selling point of it own!... Read review

Advantages: looks stylish
Disadvantages: none

...I bought a panasonic skaa17 a few months back and it is an excellent choice, the first thing that attracted me to it was all the flashing lights on the front, sort of a little display that looks like a space invaders game!!, but the rest of it is excellent too, you can choose from various presets to enhance the sound of your music, such as rock, hall, flat, heavy!! It also takes a generous 5 cd's, which of course you can preset, random play etc etc.The unit also has a twin tape deck with one touch record.Plus of course a clock and timer facility as well as the usual radio channels.It comes with a remote control so you dont need to leave your chair!! Overall it looks stylish and performs brilliantly, buy it!... Read review

It looks good, and is relatively easy to install- any system with 6 speaker wires is not going to be a piece of cake, but the instructions were clear and fairly easy to follow. Added to this is the fact that it can store and play up to 5 discs, giving a sophisticated and versatile entertainment system. I've been very pleased with it; the only snag is that the disc change mechanism is rather slow and noisy.... Read review
