Good Points: Excellent sound quality, especially bass. Small dimensions, easy fit any place. Nice design. 2x30 W RMS amplifier.

Bad Points: Tape recording not possible from remote. Display is too small so unreadable from distance more than 2.5 meters. Philips incredible surround is nothing incredible, just cheap advertisement (in my opinion).

General comments: Bought for only 76 Euro (Croatia, with 50% discount), Jan 07. Value for money is unbeatable. Most what I enjoy is excellent sound quality, especially bass. I did not expect such good sound from Philips. Design is also very interesting, I like it. Main disadvantage is small and hardly readable display so cannot see name of radio station or number of album on MP3 CD.

The Philips MCM-350 has good sound, is compact and plays MP3s but I had to bring it back because it puts pauses between tracks on CDs that play through from track to track without pauses (most dance CDs). A very bad point in my opinion as it sounds like it is skipping.

Its predecessor (which is black and much nicer looking) does not have this problem.

Manual does not offer any help with this problem so I doubt its a setting.

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 o ...
