Good sound. Funky design. Well priced.
Not massive sound output.
The Philips MCM-350 is the only item I own from Philips, having previously bought mostly Sony. By and large I'm quite happy, it is a stereo suited to a bedroom and the fact that it fits on a normal depth shelf was a major selling point for me(the main component is less than 30cm/12" deep). At €200 it was very well priced if you compare it to similar sized systems from Sony or Panasonic. The CD player has an unusual and unique way of opening, which is something I like about the Micro System, my only worry is that this design will be prone to breaking after regular use. Maybe it's a little paranoid, but it's something I worry about after previous experiences. Another thing that pleases me about the stereo is the detail, the remote is a work of art, the stereo turns off if you forget and automatically conserves electricity and the radio gets great reception from the supplied aerial. All in all, I am glad I bought this system, in it's price range it has the best looks and sound quality.
