Philips MCM119

Cheap, sounds great, has usb input to play mp3s etc from memory stick, no pointless tape player.

one speaker is heavier than the other because it has the power supply in it, not sure if this is really a bad point, but it was unexpected.

It is a neat and tidy unit, easy to use and very good value

The USB input is great and allows folder recognition which is exactly what I wanted.

The USB device will only recognise Flash (solid state) devices and not portable hard disks.

Good design. Fits nicely into a bookshelf

No headphone socket. Not all functions work as assumed. Some functions don't work from remote control.
