Comments/Review
Sony Australia’s RRP for this micro hi-fi is $129, got it for $99 at Target.
The main unit with speakers are attractively finished in black and silver and is light-the whole hi-fi weighs less than 7kgs (that’s also hpw much the shipping box weighs).
The controls are on the front, as well as being selected via a small and light remote.
It’s sold in Canada,here in Australia and in Europe, but not in the United States.
Setup is fuss-free-connect the speaker wires, plug the CD deck receiver (HCD-EH15) into a wall socket, and turn it on.
Took me about 2-3 minutes to set the clock and preset tuner stations.
Has a audio-in jack for playing songs off MP3 players with a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable.
Also has DSGX(Sony’s term for bass boost), and a 4 preset EQ:flat,jazz,pop and rock.
The SQ is wonderful-with powerful sounding speakers, impressive considering it’s only 10W RMS.
