    Good Points: Amazing sound quality, USB input, size


    Bad Points: None!


    General comments: I love the Philips MC-500 system, bought mine back in 2003/2004. Was looking for a small and relatively cheap system that fitted in with my room.

    This fitted the bill perfectly. The sound (more specifically, the bass) is incredible. At half volume these amazing speakers can make the bed on the other side of my room vibrate!

    The styling: Very modern, and a small form factor make this a perfectly sized stereo for any room

    Inputs: I've got my PS2 connected to the aux input, and my PC connected by USB. The USB software may be a bit poor, but Windows XP/Vista have built in drivers for it, so just plug it in, open your favourite media player and use the play stop rewind and fast-forward buttons on the remote to control your music from anywhere! It's really a great feature.

    Just buy it. You WILL NOT be disappointed!

    This small system has amazingly loud, clear and versatile bass and crisp clear sound. The Philips MC-500 puts some much more expensive systems to shame. Friends are stunned that such a small system can give such a big sound. No sound destortion even when cranked up full volume. USB software is somewhat unreliable because of the program that is supplied.

    When I first set out to buy a stereo, I wanted something small and packed with features....but I also wanted outstanding sound quality. When I first saw this systems USB capabilities it caught my eye, after a quick listen to it, followed by listening to a much bigger more expensive Sony unit I was amazed and dug out the cash.

    I have had the unit almost a year now, unfortunately the AMP blew but thanks to excellent support from Philips it was replaced within a week. The amp blowing was probabl ...
