I bought the Teac system that was not remanufactured and was also very disappointed in the quality. The CD player did not even last 6 months! I would not buy another Teac product.

When I first received the item I was disappointed that the audio quality was fairly weak. The subwoofer was okay, but the main speakers really can't handle much sound.

Also, the photo and description are very deceiving when it comes to the "sleek, flat-panel left and right speakers, as well as the main unit, are wall mountable, enabling you to save valuable desk or shelf space."

I chose this thinking that I would be able to flush wall-mount very thin speakers and the main unit. What isn't revealed is there is a pretty chunky box hiding in the back of these units: these aren't flat panels, at all, really.

Lastly, I too, feel burned by the remanufactured quality. The remote control sensor went dead after about a year of use. The second biggest reason I purchased it was so I could control it via the remote while working out. Now it's next to worthless for me.

You get what you pay for. It lasted less then one year,then the cd player quit working. Remanufactored should have been my warning.

I bought this system over 5yrs ago after much research and "review reading". For the money it delivers well and has served me flawlessly these many years. Just don't expect it to perform like a high-end system that would cost 10X it's price. The unit is not built to be able to handle large rooms, but sound quality for a small one would be just fine. The compact size and sleek finish are it's strengths. I'm an audiophile and my main system dwarfs this one, yet I still feel this is a quality unit for the price.
