I chose this micro system without illusions but convinced, in light of comments, it would ensure me a minimum service. I was amazed by the performance it achieves through a listening room: pure sound, treble clarity, cleanliness Bass sound depth, spatial distribution, can not say more praise. I mainly listen to classical music. I hastened to test all my favorite tunes without taking into default or the outburst of the orchestra nor the intimate air, or air flutes nor does the raging percussion stop. Even a prelude to Bach's organ is impressive relief and depth. Of course, its not the magnitude that my speakers were issuing (Phonophone) but the price is not the same either! I installed loudspeakers on Stylum supportsNorStone 2 Speaker stand library Structure Steel Height 60 cm metallic silver finish putting them in an ideal location in relation to the ears when seated. The music lover (not a musician) I'm perfectly happy with this acquisition - chain more feet of pregnant - and recommend it to those who want, like me, replace their old stereo that comes from letting go.
