For rich, full audio at a modest price, look no further than the Sony CMT-MX500i Micro Shelf System. Ideal for any music fan, this system boasts dual 30 W RMS speakers, playback for CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs as well as a built-in FM tuner with 20 presets. You can also customize your sound with bass and treble controls, as well as DSGX bass boost for additional deep bass.
Since the system has an iPod dock, you can even enjoy playlists from your compatible iPod or iPhone, and it will even charge whenever it's docked to keep it powered up and ready to go. It's compatible with most models including the iPhone 3GS and iPod nano (1-5th generation), so yours is almost sure to be on the list.
If you feel the need to go beyond the radio and your personal playlists, you can connect additional audio devices like a non-docking MP3 player or laptop computer with the auxiliary audio input jack. You can even listen to your favorite tunes privately via the headphone jack if you don't want to disturb others.
Whether the CMT-MX500i is playing your CD collection, pumping out playlists from your iPod or iPhone, tuning into your local FM radio stations or playing selections from additional audio devices, it can offer high fidelity sound reproduction. This compact system can fit just about anywhere, and its modern styling will add a touch of sophistication to any space.
