Product Description

The MHC-BX5 Mini System delivers serious sound without taking up serious space. 95 watts per channel drives the hybrid dual 6" woofers and built-in subwoofer, so you get powerful music that's also accurate at any volume. There's a 3-CD changer with Play Exchange so you can change two discs while playing another. Add a digital tuner, 10 factory EQ presets, dual full logic auto reverse cassette decks, and a full function remote, and you get a mini system that delivers big time performance.V-Groove electronically optimizes bass for maximum output with Sony's Hybrid Dual Woofer. It delivers bass you can feel as well as hear. Hybrid Dual Woofer uses a 6-inch woofer to handle mid-bass frequencies, and this driver couples with a second 6-inch woofer that is dedicated to deep bass reproduction. Loop/Flash is a special and fun sound effects feature for CD play. Loop provides continuous repeat of a few seconds of music, and Flash provides intermittent sound play of music. DBFB stands for Dynamic Bass Feedback, which is a bass enhancement circuit that compensates for the human ear's relative insensitivity to low frequencies at low listening levels. VACS is Sony's Variable Attenuation Control System, which is a circuit that keeps sound clean even at high volume levels. VACS prevents amplifier "clipping" and its consequent distortion. Full-Logic Tape Transport provides electronic, rather than mechanical, control of the drive system of the cassette deck. It delivers more reliability, smoother operation, and quicker one-touch control. Spectrum Analyzer displays the tonal (bass, treble) content of your music graphically. Access tracks with the one-touch access buttons from either the front panel or from the remote. Random Play shuffles and randomly plays every track in complete random order without repeating a single track, until all selections have played.

Trust the Brand, SONY! Great Sound! Great Bass! Great Look!5
I had TEAC executive micro system (MC-D80), which I bought for $299. Although the system looked good, the weak 20 watt/ch sound gave me nothing but, disappointments. Executive microsystems have the looks, but lack the sounds! So I bought this Sony MHC-BX5 to satisfy my buring desire of BASS and LOUD Room-filling sound. I wasn't sure about my purchase at first, but as soon as I powered it on, my room was trembling with great BASS and LOUD, CRISP sounds. It handled Korn, Mozart, and Jay-Z, the ways they should've been! This system is what you should buy, before it sells out. Sony MHC-BX5 has 3-way, ported speakers (with dual 6" woofers) with 95 watts/ch!! There are more powerful systems around, say JVC MX-J900 for $400, but are they worth $150 more? I don't think so, because we won't recognize the difference anyway. Let's talk about the look. Unlike other brands, JVC's UGLY Robot-looking, or Panasonic's plain plastic case, this one has clean Chrome finish with beautiful LED EQ.

What can I say more? You must trust the brand name, SONY! I am glad that I did!!

Just Great!5
This stereo is an amazing piece of technology, it is good looking, and sounds amazing! The one feature that makes it better than all the others is a little button labeled V-GROOVE, this is the most amazing X-BASS feature I have ever encountered, it makes ANYTHING sound good. Get this stereo, you will not be dissapointed.

This System is the best Value5
I recently bought this amazing system; boy was I impressed. It had excellent bass and crystal clear sound quality. It was also rated best buy in Consumer Reports. I would recommend this stereo to anyone, but make sure you have a space to put the system it is rather large.
