| akunthita's Full Review: Sharp CD-XP7700 CD Shelf System |
I was a little cautious before buying this audio shelf-system as I couldn't find any rating for it either on Amazon, or Epinions, or other similar sites. But I took the plunge as I trust Sharp products. Well, I'm glad I did.
Externally the unit is beautifully and cleanly designed. No fancy bells and whistles, just sharp features and easily operable controls. (I love the blue and black color combination. It is really smart looking.)
Internally the sound is gorgeous, the CD/MP3 player works great, and I like that it has a dual tape-player (which, of course also works great). The speakers are well-designed also, and sturdy. All in all I'm very pleased with this unit.
The only thing I wish would be better is the remote control. It is a generic gray box (not matching the unit at all; so if you have a bunch of remotes you will have a hard time guessing that this one is for the shelf-system.) It has a zillion tiny buttons - all the same color, shape and design - so to operate it in the dark you will need the eyes of an owl to read the tiny lettering above the tiny buttons, or a good deal of luck to figure out which button you want to use. Even the on/off button and the volume is tiny and the same as the rest. I'm surprized that such a beautifully crafted shelf-system has such a poorly designed remote.
However all the features of the system itself are excellent and I highly recommend it.
