Good Points

Very good sound. Small footprint. Looks great. Easy to transport. Less expensive than their peers.


Bad Points

On/off/volume switch is nicely concealed but requires two hands to operate easily. Be careful aligning pins when plugging the speaker into the amplifier.


General Comments

My Phillips MMS321 system is the replacement for a 2.1 system which I accidentally fried the circuitry of when a spark jumped from my finger to the control unit while adjusting the volume and apparently took out the pre-amp leaving only the sub-woofer functioning. Except for the belly blasting bellows-like displacement of the air by the replaced 2.1 system's sub-woofer the full-spectrum range of this 2.0 system is equally good. The maximum volume is good for personal use but will not be as loud as a typical stereo which you might use for entertaining guests. I find that the cross-over from bass to midrange is seamless and is actually superior to the replaced 2.1 system which had a gap in the frequency response at the cross-over frequencies. I have listened to 'The Bourne Ultimatum' on DVD, Miles Davis and other jazz CD's, various ripped religious music files ranging from an antique church organ to Byzantine chants to a full symphony orchestra as well as live streaming WQXR classical music internet radio on this system and it is only slightly less capable than a top end system to my ears. I could not be more satisfied.
