This product is made by Aiwa, that really says alot if you know anything about stereos. They come equipped with a great warranty which I think is a one year warranty. The system comes with a three cd changer, which has treated me like a brother. The dual cassete is great for recording on. The quality of the recording from the cd to the tape is unbelievable. The options on this stereo, were probably never seen before at a stereo of this price. The quality of the reception is pretty good, I never got good reception in my room because, I live in the basement. My brother had a 2000 system and it didnt come in too good so he had to hook up an antenna. You can buy an antenna for about 25 dollars, that antenna will work great. If you are looking to hook up an entertainment center this will be great. It also has a Karaoke system, that you can have two microphones hooked up to. It comes with a center speaker, two surround sound speakers (which can be hung on a wall), and two normal bookshelf speakers that have each have subwoofers in. This system is 300 watts of full power. I completely love this product. If you live in the New York City area you can pick it up for 299.99 at 6th avenue electronics or get another store to beat there price, like I did. This product cost 500 dollars in most stores, so get the deal.
