Customer reviews

Nice.
I love this stereo. The bass is amazing. I haven’t used it as surround sound yet, but I’d assume it will do pretty well. The sound quality is excellent, and I love that it has a wake up feature which allows it to act like an alarm clock. Two big thumbs up!

Nice piece, nice sound!
I’ve had this system for a couple of months now.

Here are some observations I made:

Surround Sound: It works, and is a nice effect over plain stereo, but it’s not quite Dolby Pro-Logic 5.1, which would be nice. I still enjoy the 4 speaker surround, though.

Sound quality: After getting by with cheap “micro-systems”, the sound difference is breathtaking. Sounds, particularly on the outer edges of its audible range are far more realistic than on a cheap boombox. Often, a recording of a doorbell or phone sounds more realistic than the real thing.

Volume: I haven’t cranked it beyond 10 (out of 50, I think), but usually leave it at 5. At that point, it covers the bedroom, and, at 10, the surrounding rooms as well.

Bass: Very realistic, but not overly done. Thumps that sounded like muffled bangs on ultra-low-end stuff actually sound and even feel like thumps. The Groove enhancement is great if you do like the bass.

Live Recording: This is one of two minor disappointments I have with this system. The MHC-LX10000 comes with 2 mic inputs with their own shared volume and echo knobs, which work. However, Sony left out the Karaoke feature that I enjoyed on my previous Aiwa systems, so you have to either drown out the singer with your singing (not fun), or make it a duet.

Energy: It claims to take very little power in Standby, which is nice. The only indicator during standby is a red LED. But I’d prefer an option to display the clock in Standby mode, especially since it has a wake-up feature, which lets it act as an expensive alarm clock, so I’d like to also see what time it is.

Incidentally, my AM Radio has never worked, but I haven’t called Sony yet about that, so I don’t know if I somehow messed up the antenna or something, or if the unit is defective. Forewarned is forearmed, though.

Overall, I am happy with it and would recommend it if you want a solid system that does its job, though, as mentioned above, make sure your AM radio works and I haven’t been able to make it display the time in standby mode nor does it have true Karaoke (ability to fade out the center channel).

Good one to have
I own this system for over 2 months and I like this system, though it is bulky and little bigger for a small room.

Appearance: The appearance is sober, elegant and classic, not the funky type.

Speakers: It does not produce enough sound even in high volume level. But sound quality is very good. It suppresses high frequency notes a bit.

CD changers: It has 3 CD changers. The buttons for Cd changers are in the top. If you keep it in the shelf high enough, you may not be able to see the buttons to change songs/CDs, etc. You can use remote controller alternatively. I would prefer the buttons in the front panel

Cassette: Dual cassette deck with Auto reverse in one. This was very important for me, as I have few cassettes I regularly listen to, and I hate to change cassette sides in every 20 minutes

Overall, this is a good system to own and have
