Customer Ratings & Reviews

Remember that boom box you had when you are younger. Yep, this is definitely something pretty similar. In the box, is two speakers and a center unit that has CD player, AM/FM radio, Audio In (to connect to a television for surround sound), and bluetooth connect. There is also a mic plug to plug up a microphone for karaoke. On the back of the center unit is a plug for the included antenna for the radio and an audio out plug. There is no HDMI for sound, which is understandable but it would have been great to pull even better sound for movies and television. Plugging in this system is super simple, plug in the speakers, the audio cord and antenna and you are on your way. There is a remote that changes all settings BUT the bluetooth. You have to use the center console if you would like to change the bluetooth connection to another device. The sound in my opinion is okay, thank goodness there are tons of settings to choose from to make the sound its best for whatever you are using the speakers for. There is the FIESTA setting which is a party mode, so this will definitely great for home parties and get togethers. Overall, I love this system because it replaced my old bedroom system and there are so many options that I can choose from that it makes great sound for the radio, television and my music.

I love writing positive reviews that maybe will help fellow consumers out. And I will keep this positive, at least to some extent. As others have written this is great for preteens or young teens when you don't want them to blow up your hard earned and high dollar system. Yes, we guys love our dream systems. So there :) The Sony MHC M20 is, IMHO, overly big hence the 1980's reference. The sub has no real BOOM, but a pleasent compliment to the pretty decent tweeters. I love the DJ mode and pseudo kerioke mode. The light show is sure to be a hit with the kiddo's too. I love that you can add more Bluetooth self powered speakers. This would be cool under the tree for kids, outside at a pool party, or in the garage to have some music while working on the family suv.

While I was, and still am, a bit lost with all the remote control features, i had fun playing with the ones i could figure out without consulting the manual first. Hooking up the wires, all included but somewhat shorter than i expected (* maybe 6 to 9 feet, eyeballing), was easy, everything fit where it should. It includes a CD player which i haven't had one of in a few years. The ability to manipulate the sound was impressive and a bit trippy. It plays bluetooth audio seemingly much clearer than FM radio, though I am glad FM is there as a source. The wireless remote was able to even skip songs over bluetooth which, again, I was happy was there. Sound quality varied by setting, and input, which is to say you have control depending on your mood.

This was on sale, and I needed a replacement. The set-up was easy, and the sound is beyond my expectations. This unit is currently playing a CD. The FM radio has great reception.

I was able to transfer my original record player to this system when my original CD player broke. Very light weight. Sound is fine. Easy set up.

OK. I usually love Sony products but this one is definitely underwhelming. The size is HUGE like I always thought Sony tried to make things smaller, not larger. The sound is very mediocre at best. I really was disappointed.
