Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $200.00 from Best Buy

Summary:
So if you want something for your friends to make fun of buy it. Thats what happended to me. If you are going to buy this, even though its probably not being sold anymore, have fun. Its just a good thing to have for a paper weight. But it was my first, and at that time it sounded good, but compared to today(4-25-01) it is really lame.

Strengths:
It can have very good sounding bass at some times, depending on the song.
It has a manual eq, which is good if you want to add more of the lower freq.'s.
You can also save these eq settings.

Weaknesses:
Can only go to 60hz the lowest.
Dynamic Boost does nothing.
Poor radio reception.
The cd changer takes forever to swich to another cd and then to load the legnth.
Display is hard to read far away.

Summary:
I beleive that if you are looking for a great mini hi-fi system, the Sony Rx30 is the way to go. It has the best sound quality, bass and G.U.I you can get.

Strengths:
It has an awesome Bass boost. And I love the overall quality of the sound it produces. No static at all.

Weaknesses:
I i don't like how the clock settings work.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
