Default Mini system?

Sang Li a écrit :

Looking for a mini system for a christmas present. CD/radio/speakers
are the requirement, anything else is a bonus. More of a conventional
box shape preferably, but if it looks cool and has flashing lights on
it, that is not necessarily a problem. Budgeting £100 for this.
Basically, is there anything that fits these requirements that doesn't
sound like ****?

Connecting your walkman to a 2.1 decent system is really better than any
Ghetto-blaster or "Sony" smart looking product.

Unfortunately, I am not in the driving seat.


So... I have a Sony CMT-RB5 in the kitchen. It is not very good but it
is not very bad. I spent 150.00 European $ for it.
I dont know if it is still available and I'm a little bit lazy tonight.
I have chose this on without heard it because there isn't any tape
reader (I hate tapes) and because the speakers was more heavy than the
other models or brand.

That's the kind of thing, yeah, but maybe more space age looking.

More like these, but without the homoerotic speakers:

I chose this one.
You are right the speakers are awful but my opinion must be tempered
because I'm sdaly "classic".
