    4.0 out of 5 stars Ghetto Blaster for the 21st Century One Notch Short of Perfect, January 11, 2012
    This review is from: Sony Muteki RDH-GTK1i Mini Hi-Fi System (Electronics)
    Just as another buyer posted in his review (G37x), I too bought my Sony RDH-GTK1i at my local Sam's Club for a mere $149. I must say, you get what you pay for, which truly isn't bad, but it's not superlatively great either. I bought this all-in-one system to replace my old AIWA shelf stereo system that was going on nearly 20 years (my gosh, I can't believe I had that thing for so long!). Nearly half of the features were broken on the old system and it had no USB/iPod support or the ability to play MP3s/iTunes, so I was painfully due for a new system.

    The primary reason I went for this system was the fact that A.) it's one solid piece: I have a very destructive cat who likes to chew thin wires (the stringier, the better). Something with "chew proof" speakers that aren't battery operated satellites (I hate the idea of having to replace batteries all the time) appealed to me. B.) The unit must have a USB port. Nothing against Apple devotees out there, but I simply do not own... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars This 'little giant' rocks., August 19, 2011

    This review is from: Sony Muteki RDH-GTK1i Mini Hi-Fi System (Electronics)
    This boom box totally rocks, and the sound is phenomenal. I had this on my wish list for a short time before finding an Amazon vendor that had it listed at more than a $100 off the retail price of $249 and that included shipping. According to the manual the unit is rated at 35 watts/channel @ 6 ohms and peaking at 110 watts per channel for an astonishing, room filling, wall shaking party machine. You will NOT be disappointed.
    There is an option to turn the light show on/off (there are blue/red LED lights in the speakers that beat to your music.) There is NO CD but you can play songs from a USB stick, dock your IPOD or connect a CD/MD player to the AUX jack in the rear of the unit. It does have a AM/FM radio built in. If it has a option for batteries then I cannot find the compartment, besides batteries would make this thing EXTRA HEAVY and probably would not last long. Build quality is excellent, seems quite solid and there is no vibration from the cabinet when you have the music... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Boom badoom boom boom badoom boom bass (he got that super bass), August 13, 2011
    This review is from: Sony Muteki RDH-GTK1i Mini Hi-Fi System (Electronics)
    First off, this baby is HUGE - huge as in bigger than you can imagine and packing a lot of heat. The main selling point here -in my opinion- is the color enhanced speakers that change from blue to red to pink, which sets it apart from its competitors. There's no CD option available, however, in today's day and age that's not really a problem seeing as CDs are nearly a thing of the past. The bass is big and loud, but the Function options (ie, Techno, Jazz, etc. that varies the sound itself coming from the speakers) really provides so many options with only minute varying differences they're almost obsolete. For the price too, the missing iPod adapter piece is disappointing due to how small and cheap it is. Overall, Sony's RDH-GTK1i is a great boom box that's a little heavier than any boom box you've likely ever owned and big enough to fill any room in a house.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Sound, November 16, 2010
    By 
    This review is from: Sony MHCEC709iP Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System (Electronics)
    I brought a Thievery Corporation CD to Frye's and tested every system in there. This had the best sound for the money BY FAR. I like my music to have powerful base and thought about getting the same system with the sub woofer, but the highs and mids were not clear on that one. This unit had great comprehensive sound--clear mids and highs with great base. All of the other systems in this price range couldn't handle high volume and had around 150-170W, but this one maintained good sound as loud as I could turn it because of the 360W. The only drawback is that it's a little bigger than I wanted for a shelf system.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great buy! Don't listen to these negative reviews, November 14, 2011
    This review is from: Sony MHCEC709iP Mini Hi-Fi Shelf System (Electronics)
    This system is great. The only reason people are complaining about this system is because they didn't do the research before they bought the product, and I did. I'm currently in college in a Music Production program, and I bought these speakers to set up as my own "home studio." Everything you need to know is on the box, but for the people who complained about this, let me elaborate. The iPod dock ONLY, I repeat, ONLY works with a 2nd Gen iPod touch! If you don't have one and are buying it primarily for iPod connectivity, either don't buy it, buy a 2nd Gen iPod touch online (they're pretty cheap now), or be the smart person and buy an 1/8th inch to 1/8th inch cable (that means the headphone adapters), that way you can plug in your MP3 player, whatever it may be, without any complications. Note: make sure you get stereo, if you buy mono without looking at the details and only the price, you'll be disappointed, you need stereo so you can get the correct panning, mono won't do that. I...

    3.0 out of 5 stars Sounds really good, but no headphone jack, January 16, 2011

    I wish I had known that that there is no headphone jack! (Ronnie's review came too late for me, unfortunately). I was very pleased with this system -- nice and loud so I can play drums with it with earplugs on, nice bass and overall sound quality. Then I discovered that there is no headphone jack. I didn't even think to see if it was included -- a headphone jack is a most basic feature that should be on every stereo. So, if you never ever use headphones, this is a great stereo, especially for the price.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Big Bang For the $$$$$$$, December 15, 2010
    This review is from: Sony LBT-ZX99i 5-Disc CD Changer Mini Shelf System with Play Exchange (Electronics)
    I bought this stereo because I want to "feel", as well as hear my music.I wanted a deep, thumping bass that will shake and rattle the windows.This is it!!!
    I have tested this unit playing CCR,,the Rolling Stones,Bad Company,Beatles,and Pink Floyd,all kinds of great "classic rock".I've played alot of Waylon Jennings,Merle Haggard,and Hank Jr.-to name a few.Massive thumping bass!!!Pictures actually fall of the wall with this awesome system.This is like having a PA system in your home...and as prior revewiers have mentioned,you might have to live in fear that your neighbors might call the cops for disrupting the peace--if there is really such a law.
    My only gripe is that in the owners manual it states that it is not IPHONE compatible. But it accepts IPODS. Bonus:Phono Inputs!!!!.......Listen to your old record albums with rich,deep bass!!!!I'm not kidding---my record collection is being brought back to life because of this system.It's not the most attractive piece of...

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good Sound for the money, December 8, 2009

    This review is from: Sony LBT-ZX99i 5-Disc CD Changer Mini Shelf System with Play Exchange (Electronics)
    Very good sound for a "Mini Shelf" system but then, it is not very small so make sure you have room and able to hold 146 pounds. The Bass boost is in deed heavy bass and vibrates things (probably too good for late hours in most places). Sound is still pretty good without bass boost with a little extra volume. I think Sony needs to make a half bass boost which probably would be the best sound on many occassions.
    Like the Ipod input for my use and also so friends caneasily bring and play music they like. It looks "cool" but not sophistcated, Not the greatest sound
    but it is good and for the price, I have no regrets.

    When looking at the stereos that you had I saw this stereo I said why not, it looks good, the ratings from cusomrs wer good and the discription of the stereo sounded good. When it arrived we hooked it up and we give it a 5 star because its great. Easy to hook up, easy to program, and the ipod hookup is great. It was a great buy for the money. The sound has great clarity.
