Price Paid:  $530.00 from cosco

Summary:
After screwing with this piece of c*&% for two months now I give up. It makes me think of my 1980's realistic trash complicated set up. I'm sorry but I think I'm going to return it.

Strengths:
Bought at cosco and easy to return it.

Weaknesses:
Everything from the instructions to the compatibility to other jvc products not the least it's tinny sound.

Price Paid:  $549.00 from costco.com

Summary:
This is a great unit....the subwoofer is great and is loud and driving. I have heard other systems and this one is just as good as a system at $800 or more.

Strengths:
many different controls/options for setup

Weaknesses:
Only weakness is the Random Play on the 7disc CD player. It will play a WHOLE disk before it switches to a new disk. You can't have Random songs from different discs......other than that, this is the best system for the price I have seen. You also get a 10-inch 120-watt subwoofer that completes the system
