2.0 out of 5 stars Nice looking, but doesn't play so well., December 28, 2008

By	N. Johnson (Lynchburg, Virginia USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While the look of the system is stylish, and does offer the feature of being wall-mounted I found the operation less than satisfactory. It is very easy to assemble. I was shocked at how loud the motor sounds when opening and closing the disk covers. Though, initially I figured I might as well get use to that. One of my first issues was sorting through MP3 albums. I have several disks of MP3's that have many artists as well as sub albums for each artist. The display of the system would only tell me the name of the album once I started playing the songs, not the artist. On other systems you can see the name of the album before actually having to play the album, and once playing it displays the artist information/track information as well. Hence the menu options were not exactly "user friendly." When selecting the next album there was a sort of lapse where the system would play a second or two of the previous track, from the previous album which was a sort of disturbing sound. Followed by this was silence and then the first track of the selected album would play. I thought this was peculiar but could over look it. What I could not over look was the fact that it skipped way too easily on disks. (MP3 and CD disks alike). On one of my CD's, bought from a store even, skipped awfully on a certain track. This disk was not scratched badly and seemed to have played fine in the past. When I played the same song from the same album in my portable CD/MP3 player, it played perfectly! So in my humble opinion, if this system is about three times as expensive then it should also play so well.
In troubleshooting I made sure the system was level and cleaned the laser heads to make sure it wasn't due to dust from shipping. The remote doesn't work at a distance of more than a few feet.
Ultimately, I did return the system. Thankfully Amazon.com is good about issuing returns in a timely manner! Buyer beware, although you may like this system more than I did.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Bookshelf System! jWIN JXCD8700 4-CD/MP3 CD Vertical-Loading Hi-Fi System (, May 13, 2009

By	hom2vt "hom2vt" (Vermont) - See all my reviews

This system is very retro looking - It stands upright and is about 5" deep- a good small space unit. The 4 cds are in the face of the unit - easy to load and unload. For a small unit, this has great sound. Con's would be very small buttons on the face of the unit and very small buttons on the remote. If you can deal with this, the unit is A++ in its' price range. I would definitely puchase it again and have recommended it to friends. The difficulty is finding a seller.
