    Given the opportunity, I will always go with a Sony produce. In this case, I really had nothing to compare it with, except for the displays at my local Best Buy store. Did some sound better? Yes. Similar models, at a much higher cost. This model sounded fine to me. To be honest, it was curiosity, more than need that brought me to my purchase. I have a really nice home audio system and listen to most of my music in that fashion. I wanted to know more, first hand, and now I do, and the cost was minimal. It doesn't sound like a good, stereo system, but it's not designed to. This is as good a place as any to dip your toe in the water and see if you wish to invest more down the line. It's knowledge, and you don't put a price tag on that.
